North Korea has developed nuclear weapons capable of being launched on its ballistic missile forces, according to a new report by a defense analyst.
The Obama administration is seeking to hide the fact that North Korea possesses nuclear missile warheads, according to a report by Mark Schneider, a former Pentagon strategic analyst and director for forces policy at the office of the secretary of defense. Schneider’s statement came in a report published April 28 in the journal Comparative Strategy.
According to the 16-page report, “The North Korean Nuclear Threat to the United States,” the Defense Intelligence Agency stated in an unclassified assessment made public a year ago that “DIA assesses with moderate confidence the North [Korean government] currently has nuclear weapons capable of delivery by ballistic missiles.”
“This is disturbing news,” the report says. “The North Korean regime is one of the most fanatic, paranoid, and militaristic dictatorships on the planet. … While North Korea has long made occasional nuclear attack threats, the scope, magnitude, and frequency of these threats have vastly increased in 2013.”
North Korea has in the recent months issued provocative threats to carry out nuclear strikes on U.S. cities and against American allies.
According to the report, the Obama administration has sought to hide the alarming intelligence because it undermines efforts to eliminate nuclear weapons.

With the exception of Jim Robinson and family, I fail to see the downside.
The NORKS are now going get a stern Twitter from Kerry.
Nah, it’s going to be shipped to Cuba and be shot straight up and to the North.
Yep a TWITter from Kerry. Now there’s a fitting suggestion.
Thanks a lot, ahole.
Personally, I don't even risk crossing into the nation's airspace.
One will eventually run out of states to flee from...let’s see, California’s gone so that leaves only 56 left.
Yeah, well there’s nothing worth spit in Georgia since they closed the Gold Club in Atlanta, so I’ll pass.
You stay on your coast and I will stay on mine. :)
I have it on good authority from any number of FReepers that the North Korea isn’t a crazy suicidal outlaw country, but is just scared to death of the US especial under the present CINC and hide under their beds at night in fear of his wrath!
No question. Have that passport active and ready to grab.
Laz now you went and screwed yourself again! ;-)
Yes, I can see that. Can you imagine how scared you’d be if Barry called you “unhelpful” during a press conference?
I can haz so xcrewed?
The best thing about California is not living there.
The state once had Reagan as governor...then the influx of guests from south of the border made it an eternal Demorat state of madness.
That horrible, newer version of “Red Dawn”...just might come true.
Sorry...oops. Posted to wrong thread somehow?
That movie surprised me. I expected it to be total crap and instead it was actually watchable.
