norks do not have that technology and they have no way to get it over any area within the USA to detonate it. norks can hit Seoul with artillery and invade parts of the South... and they may be able to send a nuke by freighter or some lumbering aircraft but I even doubt that. They can start a world war however.

The Norks have at least one satellite in orbit.

The only technology they may not have is miniturization of the device.

However, I read recently that a relatively small and unsophisticated device, even smaller than the Hiroshima bomb, detonated at high altitude over the midsection of the U.S. could darken much of the continental U.S.

Perhaps you know more about this and can fill us in.

” send a nuke by freighter “,
In conjunction with Iran or some other rogue state that is what I fear.
Since this fat little punk has been able to put a missile on a truck, why can’t he stick one on a ship?
Either that or simply put one on a ship and send it to the mouth of the Chesapeake and set it off?
Just saying.

the US SecDef does not share your estimate and that is why missile defense system has been deployed off California and Alaska

NK’s successful Dec launch of a “satellite” into orbit made at least some doves reevaluate their condescension obama is now in command of deploying systems he and Hagel tried to kill or slow leak for the past decade

Why do we keep insisting on underestimating our enemies capabilities, especially given our intelligence services have been caught completely by surprise so many times? We never, never learn no matter how many times we are hit over the head.
