Well, the “interesting times” curse may be upon us, though I’d ask what kind of test? Putting a gadget of unknown provenance on a rocket? Well ok, but where did they get the gadget?

[HiTech RedNeck]

Well I wonder whose furnished this gadget to them, if it isn’t bluff (and maybe some Norkie generals, realizing how suicidal KJU is, lied to KJU about having an H bomb).

Let’s hope we don’t wake up on the Tuesday after Labour Day with panic in the markets. We all remember what happened in 2008 on that same auspicious day.

Not good.

Question to all: Do we know if they can reach the continental USA yet?

[Viking2002]

Dude, I was working at the Pentagon twenty years ago, and they were sweating what the Norks had cooking in their mountain tunnels back then. This shit starts with Slick Willy, and rolls downhill to to now. At least Trump is putting that bloated little rice ball Phat Boi on notice that perfumed diplomats aren't going to pander to their self-indulgent idiocy anymore - a good MOAB will.

6.2 mag “earthquake” detected in Nork today. Other posters said perfect size for an hbomb test. For what it’s worth.

[HiTech RedNeck]

We felt the earth move under our feet huh.

Well pretty soon the sky will come tumbling down on the mad Norkies. They asked for it.

If that’s the picture it sure seems weird that the bombs were almost ready before the rockets ceased to be jokes.

Has China been furnishing these improvements? That’s mighty sadistic of them, but maybe now that they are of no more use to China this puts the onus of getting rid of Norkieland on the Western world.

(2nd LD) N. Korea claims successful test of H-bomb for ICBM

SEOUL, Sept. 3 (Yonhap) -- North Korea said Sunday that it has successfully conducted a test of a hydrogen bomb that can be loaded into its intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) in what could be the most powerful detonation.

In an "important" announcement, North Korea said that it carried out the sixth nuclear test at 12:00 p.m. (Pyongyang Time), calling it a "perfect" success.

The announcement came hours after an artificial earthquake with a 5.7 magnitude was detected near North Korea's nuclear site in the northeastern area.

"The H-bomb test was carried out to examine and confirm the accuracy and credibility of the power control technology, and internal structural design newly introduced into manufacturing the H-bomb to be placed as the payload of the ICBM," the Korean Central News Agency said.

It marks North Korea's sixth nuclear test since 2006 including two detonations last year.

Earlier in the day, North Korea claimed that it has developed a hydrogen bomb that can be mounted on an ICBM.

The provocation came amid heightened tensions after North Korea tested two ICBMs in July. Analysts said the ICBM tests could put much of the U.S. mainland within range, including Los Angeles and Chicago.

In January 2016, North Korea conducted its fourth nuclear test, which Pyongyang claimed to be a successful test of a hydrogen bomb. Outside experts said that it appeared to be a test of a boosted fission weapon, rather than an H-bomb.

South Korea's weather agency said Sunday that the latest blast was five to six times more powerful that the North's fifth test in September 2016. The explosion a year ago, presumably with a yield of 10 kilotons, triggered a 5.04 magnitude earthquake.

Sunday's test was 11 times more destructive than its fourth test, it said.

North Korea's provocation is expected to prompt the international community to seek tougher sanctions and pressure.

Question is do we wait to find out?

The AP article top center of Drudge is the best article so far on this.

Time to start shooting down every Missile they launch.

Of course that just means they will put a Bomb in one of their Subs and detonate it off the Pacific Coast of the United States.

The Nork Submariners will sacrifice themselves for their Dear Leader.

Have the Democrats blamed President Trump yet? The Nork Nuclear Arms buildup began January 20th of this Year you know, at exactly 12:10 P.M. EST.

Up until that time Lord Obama had them contained.
