A veteran Heritage Foundation (HF) researcher who has studied data from North Korea has very serious news for all Americans: The North Koreans now have the capability to hit any place in the United States with a nuclear loaded warhead.
Thanks to the silly, bowing, scraping and time wasting charade the very phony John Kerry has carried out over his pointless tenure as Barack Obama’s Sectary of State, every single person in America is now in genuine danger.
The (HF) researcher concluded that since North Korea has successfully put another satellite into orbit she has the technological ability to launch an Intercontinental Ballistic Missile (ICBM) which could easily strike America’s capitol and any of our largest cities.
Moreover, the increase in North Korea’s ICBM capabilities is now moving at an alarming pace. The payload they successfully placed in space in their December 2012 launch indicates a capability large enough to propel a nuclear bomb 3,000 km further than intelligence sources had ever before attributed to the gangster regime. The (HF) researcher points out, “.. the U.S. commanders of U.S. Forces Korea, Pacific Command, and North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) publicly assessed that North Korea has the ability to hit the United States with a nuclear weapon.â€
The moves North Korea has taken are very serious violations of U.N Security Council restrictions...

As long as they can’t hit Tampa, I’m OK.
Who cares where they hit, it’s scary that they can. We allowed this. We have to step up and accept responsibility for our own rogue governments and our lack of will and character to remove them.
Iran all the way home,
to get smacked by NK...
They have been developing them for 10-15 years.
Bush called N. Korea and Iran part of the Axis of evil...and he was in a position to stop N. Korea’s initial nuclear tests.
Bush would have had to deal with China in such an operation, and at the time he did not want to risk what he was doing in Afghanistan or Iraq...but stopping North Korea was important enough IMHO.
Anyhow, during the Bush years N. Korea launched their first tests with ICBMs and we found pieces of the nose cone/dummy warhead in Alaska back then.
So they had already developed a rudimentary capability and they have been improving on it ever since.
Not stopping N. Korea was one of the failures (IMHO) of the Bush years amongst many successes. . I do not believe the Iraq War was a failure or a problem,,, thought it was certainly hard. Read from this link to find out why I do not think it was an error:

Not relevant news, GWB lied and he must be held responsible.
So what, it’s Bush’s fault.
One, how much "throw weight" does the system have? That is, it can boost a small satellite to sufficient altitude and velocity to achieve orbit. If you increase the payload weight for say a first generation nuclear bomb, that's a lot heavier. So it probably has enough total energy (impulse) to throw that kind of weight in a sub-orbital trajectory. How far? A related question is, just what would a first gen RV and warhead weigh?
Two, what kind of accuracy could they place a warhead with? A small fission device of a couple dozen KT, although a good terror weapon, does have a limited effective radius. If they aim for a city, it's probably going to be harder on some of the suburbs... Then again, maybe they just go for an EMP weapon and detonate exo-atmospheric over the central US or the city concentration on one coast or another?
Three, what kind of reliability could they achieve? An ICBM flight is full of engineering challenges, heat, cold, shock & vibration, supersonic airflows, solar radiation... It takes some real engineering to get the components of a nuclear weapon to survive that. It isn't the same as a simple science project in a cave.
So yes, they have a budding nuclear weapons program. They have a vehicle, it can hit us, but with what and where and how much is the question. Then there's the little thing of the several dozen missile interceptors sitting in Vandenberg and Greely. Our radars see something on a ballistic trajectory rather than an orbital insertion trajectory...
What is really scary is if they have an EMP warhead that can shut down all electronics and grid sending us back to the stoneage.
You are right. Anyone dismissing the possibility of us getting hit with an EMP has their head in the sand.

We don’t have radar looking south, and NK’s 2 satellites have both been put into a polar orbit which would allow them to shoot at us from the south. Their satellites are both at the precise altitude for an EMP attack. Both satellites are tumbling now so if I understand correctly, they can’t hit us with an EMP that way yet, but as soon as China wants the trigger-happy Kim Jong Un to have EMP capability they can put a satellite into orbit that doesn’t tumble.
Correct me if I’m misunderstanding.
NOrth Korea and Iran are BOTH openly preparing to be able to hit us in a variety of ways.
I think Obama’s aiming for it all to be ready by November or December. They can hit us with the EMP and let the terror sleeper cells finish us off while he’s yukking it up with the enemies who helped NK and/or Iran be able to hit us, and provided the sleeper cells...
Allowed? F*, the damn Clintons GAVE them the friggin’ know-how....nary an eye was batted on that (single) treason as well.
Shoot what? They're rudimentary satellites, not super-ninja-laser-weapons or bomb delivery devices.
Both satellites are tumbling now so if I understand correctly, they can't hit us with an EMP that way yet
If they don't have weapons capability, they could crash into your driveway and maybe damage some concrete.
I hope you enjoy writing all this fan-fiction.
It may be exciting for you to imagine, but relation to reality...
Not so much.
That’s what I mean. Nobody had stood up and said enough. Nobody has made anyone answer for their crimes. Everyone is waiting for the right moment. That right moment won’t even come, there will always be the guy saying “we need to wait.”
Agreed. Please check out post 15 to see a post by someone who constantly follows me around and tries to call me crazy.
What they will be saying is, “You’re a crazy conspiracy theorist if you believe there’s real danger! You’re an embarrassment to the conservative community!!”
They’ll be saying that even as the mushroom cloud explodes far overhead...
The stupor over most of the public leads me to believe we’re headed for Biblical times very quickly.
The machine knew how to make sure of FOIA obfuscation. It wasn’t until much later that Judicial Watch (IIRC) sued to get the documents showing that the satellite technology had been illegally sold by SecDef William Perry to a front company he knew was owned by the Chinese military leader’s wife.
IIRC, the Cox Report suggested that front companies should be looked at more closely, but AG Janet Reno refused to investigate. Because of that the DOD started an open-source data-mining project meant to discover suspicious connections between people and groups - a project called “Able Danger”. Able Danger’s information was ordered destroyed when they accurately found the connections between SecDef Perry’s company and the Chinese front company; some of the information destroyed was intel warning about an Al Qaeda cell based in Brooklyn, which later went on to attack the US on Sept 11, 2001.
When one of the researchers for Able Danger brought forward what had been done to Able Danger there were Cognressional hearings. The DOD gagged Shaffer to end the hearings, and Curt Weldon, the Cox Report’s research member who had pushed for the hearings, was defeated in his next election after a (Soros?) smear campaign.
So what does this mean? The DOD and DOJ both cover the a$$es of our domestic enemies because they are within our own leadership, and the media effectively wipes out anybody who tells the truth.
Not much has changed. And as long as the media runs interference for the crooks it’s not going to change because Congressional members have to get re-elected in order to do anything to stop these crimes. People like you and me will be called crazy and most people won’t know anything different until the mushroom cloud has wreaked its havoc.
I’d ignore that idiot. He’s just a punk who adds nothing to any conversation.
