North Korea Detonates H-Bomb

Recommended Posts

It's actually quite revealing the response from China on this. Thousands of posts are being allowed on Weibo and are NOT being censored. An unprecedented move. He's being referred to at the nut with a weapon, Kim the fat and lots of unflattering things.. But my favorite has to be::

Sorry to get this thread back on topic (ish) but there is a very interesting website that is ran by South Koreans with contacts inside North Korea. It's worth checking out if you get time... www.dailynk.com

Had this article up on the website:

North Korea’s purpoted hydrogen bomb test is a result of Pyongyang’s aggressive push to produce visible accomplishments and boost Kim Jong Un’s legitimacy of being designated general secretary during a rare Party Congress scheduled for May. The test, however, was rushed and in effect a failure, Daily NK has learned.

“The North’s hydrogen test that was carried out on the 6th was an impromptu move to idolize Kim Jong Un ahead of the 7th Party Congress in May,” a source with knowledge of North Korean affairs told South Korean lawmaker Ha Tae Kyung on Sunday. “Kim Jong Un needs a key accomplishment to justify his debut as president and Workers’ Party general secretary, so the test was put together impulsively.”

This news was confirmed by two Daily NK sources in Pyongyang as well as South Korea’s National Intelligence Service.

"It being the first Party Congress in 36 years--the last was held in October 1980--there is the absolute need to have something concrete and tangible to promote as Kim Jong Un’s legacy," he said, explaining that the achievement would have to be something grand that would suit the leader's introduction as president and general secretary. After deliberation, this "something" manifested as a thermonuclear test, he added.

“Kim Jong Un had focused on producing results in the economic sector but after failing to turn out any significant results he felt pressured and started turning his eyes toward the idea of carrying out a hydrogen bomb test from late last year,” the source asserted. “In the latter half of 2015, Kim Jong Un kept on pushing the thermonuclear team to complete the bomb by early 2016.”

Only the five permanent UN Security Council members--the U.S., China, Russia, France, and the UK--have a thermonuclear weapon, so if the North were to possess a hydrogen bomb it would gain the title as being a sixth nuclear strong country. This would be a great accomplishment that not even Kim Jong Il was able to achieve. Kim Jong Un would have also figured this would be an effective means to dispel people’s disgruntlement about the poor state of the economy, according to the source.

“But having been a hasty test based on political goals, it was ultimately unsuccessful,” he contended. “Now, Kim Jong Un is anxious about and focused on making sure that news of this failure doesn't become known to the outside world."

N. Korea says its H-bomb ‘capable of wiping out whole US at once’

 

North Korea claims it’s ready to detonate its H-bomb capable of wiping out the whole of the US “all at once.” The comments come amid increased week-long tensions on the Korean Peninsula following Pyongyang’s claim about its latest underground nuclear test.
 

“The scientists and technicians of the DPRK are in high spirit to detonate H-bombs … capable of wiping out the whole territory of the US all at once,” North Korean KCNA news agency said.

Along with the ‘wiping-out-US’ comments, Pyongyang added that the test “was neither to ‘threaten’ anyone nor to ‘provoke’ someone for a certain purpose.”

 

“It was a process indispensable for carrying out the WPK's line on simultaneously carrying out the economic construction and the building of nuclear force to cope with the US ever-more undisguised hostile policy toward the DPRK,” the agency said.

North Korea has recently made the headlines after it claimed to have carried out hydrogen bomb test. The announcement raised concerns over the security of the region.

 

In the meantime, experts doubt that Pyongyang did test the H-bomb and later agreed the device was an atomic bomb similar to those in three previous tests.

 

Pyongyang says developing a nuclear weapon was important in order to protect itself against US interference in North Korean affairs, and that the bomb can defend it against any invasion.

The UN Security Council unanimously condemned North Korea’s most recent nuclear test.

 

The test alerted neighboring Seoul. On Monday US troops stationed in South Korea were put on the highest alert ever to deter “any provocation coming from North Korea”. Earlier Washington deployed a strategic B-52 bomber on a low altitude demonstration flight over South Korea, to flex the alliance’s muscle.

Whilst definitely outrageous, I can't be the only person that thought "what an idiot."

 

Yeah. You nick something from a bunch of paranoid authoritarian lunatics...what did you really think was going to happen?

 

Still, he'll be free in a year or two after a celebrity visit and a concession or two.

Why even go there in the first place? Absolute moron.

This is basically natural selection in process. Don't bother rescuing him, they bring him home he might actually breed. Take the hint from fate and let him serve as an example.

Not an example for messing with North Korea because, frankly, **** those clowns. Just an example of what happens when you're THAT retarded.

Revisiting this on a rather sad note...he was indeed freed after 18 months, but he was in a coma from which he never recovered.

 

Poor guy.
