North Korea Warns It May Detonate An H-Bomb In The Pacific

Do we shoot it down and risk the release of radiation in the area??

I'll take a dirty bomb over a full-on nuke explosion any day.

[hecticskeptic]

The biggest bomb the US ever set off was the Castle Bravo shot in 1954, 15 megatons -- 60 times bigger than Lil Kim's bomb. We set off a bunch in the 2 to 10 megaton range.

Sure... but how many of these were set off in the water? Castle Bravo was on Namu Island, no?

There are videos of H-bomb tests in the Pacific in the 50s.

We need to do it and we need to do it soon because it will get harder to do with every passing week. Kim is a clear and present danger. Detonating a hydrogen bomb in the pacific is going too far.

Which is exactly the reason I hope he does it. Without a Pearl Harbor, the United States would have sat on it's @$$ and done nothing until it was too late.

[DiogenesLamp]

All I have learned is from a news item which says that an H-Bomb is hundreds of times more powerful than the nukes dropped on Japan. What might be the effects of an H-Bomb dropped over the Pacific?

It will convince the world that Kim Jung Un is a dangerous lunatic that needs to be separated from his life.

Greenpeace have offered to steam to ground zero in protest..

It just gets better and better! :)

[PLMerite]

Methinks the chances of Kim’s sudden, unexpected death are increasing.

Maybe this atmospheric testing is partly responsible for the queering of the West?

I read an article the other day that said birth control pills permanently affect the hormonal balance of females who use them, and cause their offspring to skew towards the feminine. They said experiments back in the 1980s with rats demonstrated that rat offspring started skewing homosexual, and rat grandchildren even more so.

Apparently tampering with human physiology has some long term negative consequences of which people were unaware.

So now we have a wave of queers to deal with.

[DiogenesLamp]

Why the world is sitting on it’s hands with this idiot is beyond me.

And Iran too. We should have cut both their throats a long time ago. We've let this get so big, that much spilling of blood is virtually unavoidable.

Did we learn nothing from Hitler and the Sudetenland?

[hoagy62]

We also did several in water. No appreciable change in effect.

The biggest concern is radiation in the upper atmosphere.

Would a Nork H-bomb dropped mid-Pacific frighten the nations in the region into lining up with the U.S. & hoping for a decisive U.S. response, or would they all seek to make their peace with Satan & appease the little dictator?

I can't speak for them, and people often don't exhibit what I regard as "good sense", but I presume it will convince them that this guy is a dangerous nut and that he needs to be defanged.

Presumably he can't have too many of these things, because it takes quite awhile to make enough plutonium to power one, plus all the machining involved in fashioning a core.

Let him blow one up, and his stockpile is that much smaller, plus other people will more clearly see the danger of letting this "God-Child" believe he is divine.

U.S. response to such an act should be a just nothing more or less than bunker buster attacks on the site the North Korean missile was launched from and any other North Korean missile sites we have identified.

[WKUHilltopper]

So will PETA run around naked worried about the fish and dolphins?

When the trigger is pulled we don't stop firing until the enemy concedes the fight. No more 38th parallel. No more North Korea.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

General Mattis would be on board with that approach - obviously Rocket Man has not studied up on what he's dealing with should the North Korean situation get "kicked to General Mattis" as Nikki Haley put it:

"No war is over until the enemy says it's over. We may think it over, we may declare it over, but in fact, the enemy gets a vote."

Well, there it goes. The EMP will short circuit the world and turn everyone into zombies. We’re all doomed.

"I’m no nuclear physicist but it seems like there would be a whole lot of radioactive nucleotides with varying half lives disseminated into the upper atmosphere and the oceanic ecosystem. It seems as if those nucleotides would then spread out to other ecosystems through the food chain and various cyclical ecological systems and would ultimately find their way into human tissues. You can’t detonate a nuclear weapon above ground without creating large amounts of nuclear fallout. You don’t need to be a nuclear physicist to know this."

Hahaha! Excellent. Thanks!

There have been many high altitude nuclear test shots, so we're already extinct and only imagining our existence. I'm sorry to inform you, though, that high altitude shots produce negligible amounts of fallout. Boring! Ground bursts produce the most and best fallout. The auroral displays from high altitude shots are really neat, though!
