That's really impressive, Now go learn about satellite capabilities and report back,

Don't need to, as you seem to be the FR resident expert on everything about satellite capabilities. But please, don't divulge any of our top secret information about new satellite development and technology... Better keep that to yourself MJ......

Nice post!

Looks like the next crisis for the anti-American crowd.

You have done a pretty decent job of learning English. Do you reside in the United States now?

[Rockpile]

Anyone who believes that North Korea cannot reach the USA with their current missile capability needs to realize that they could be launched from ships.

Don't feed the trolls.

I appreciate the compliment but I'm no expert, But here is a link for you to brush up on your knowledge of satellite technoligy :-)

You can't set off a nuc without rattling the seismographs some where!

" A Matter Of Fact " BUMP!

How so? Hindsight is 20/20 my friend

What hindsight? It was clearly stupid from the beginning - as the basis of the real problem was an effort to hide a conflict by the U.S. (Clinton Administration), not to solve the existant problem. A major portion of our agreement was one not to look anymore until the light-water reactors went on line. (Yes, I am aware of Carters delussional involvement)

When do we take action in this case? When they have launched nukes at South Korea or other of our interests?

When they sit a bit further from China.

Ten points for using the word "fungible".

Glad somebody did; it's not a difficult concept at all. Say you really want to buy a $1000 TV but you can't afford it. Then someone hands you a $1000 check with the stipulation that it can only be used to pay your rent. Even if those terms can be enforced you're in great shape; you use that check to pay rent, and use your money that *would* have gone to rent to buy the TV.

Now replace "rent" with "food" and "TV" with "nuclear weapons" to see why giving "humanitarian" aid to murderous dictators is a phenomenally stupid idea.

Sticks and Stones may break my bones but names will never hurt me. Maybe they should start an age verification policy on this site.

Actually I'm everywhere at once. You can think of me as a "higher being".

Holy crap.

But here is a link for you to brush up on your knowledge of satellite technoligy/ Satellite's for Dummies

Hey thanks for the heads up. Now I know where you learned all about the lastest satellite technology. And here I thought you were a senior scientist with JPL. LOL!

[MJY1288]

LOL, Why do you and I always end up trading jabs and laughing in the end? LOL, If you do a Google search on "Nuclear Test Detection" there is some amazing information on this subject. In 2003 NASA is going to carry a new multi function satellite out in orbit that is strictly for detecting nuclear testing (incl tactical or "Micro" nukes) along with being capable of tracking the transport of nuclear material. It makes all of our other satellite technoligy we have look primative. Cool stuff

Clinton's legacy is there for all to see......it is epitomized by the photo of him looking over the DMZ with the lens caps still on the binoculars. This is how he dealt with EVERY issue.

And thousands of people died all over the world because we chose a psychopathic liar to be our president, twice.

So simply but directly put-your words tell a story that is breathtakingly horrendous. Sometimes the truth can be caught up in sound bites or 'sight bites' and the lens caps covering the binoculars it the perfect analogy to how that madman dealt with every troubling aspect of foreign policy.

Two were splashed that week. The one you heard about over Japan and the one you didn't that came waaaaaay toooooo close to the US mainland.

Tell North Korea to Bring It On!!! we, can get this garbage over with...N. Korea, China, and the Middle East by XMAS..I am so tired of these weak panzy ass countries wasting our time..we got an economy to build.
