(LEAD) N. Korea says it has conducted hydrogen bomb test

2016/01/06 12:43

(ATTN: RECASTS headline, lead; ADDS more info)

SEOUL, Jan. 6 (Yonhap) -- North Korea announced Wednesday it has succeeded in conducting a hydrogen bomb test, hours after what seems to be an artificial earthquake was detected close to the North's nuclear test site.

In a "special" announcement aired on the North's state television station, North Korea said it conducted an H-bomb test at 10:00 a.m. (Pyongyang Time).

I don’t believe it was a hydrogen bomb.

If it was, though, it would mean cities would be a lot less radioactive after they explode them.

Does anyone doubt that Iran helped North Korea reach this milestone, and that they were able to help North Korea because of the deal that Obammie-the-Commie handed them on a silver platter?

Just as Bill “I sold missile-guidance technology to the ChiComs” Clinton is now responsible for China being able to drop a nuke on American soil, so Obammie-the-Commie is now responsible for the North Koreans having a hydrogen bomb.

150 billion can buy a great deal.

“If it was, though, it would mean cities would be a lot less radioactive after they explode them.”

H-bombs release copious amounts of neutrons. Neutrons make stuff radioactive when they bombard them.

I wonder why N. Korea needs a bomb.

They hate the world and want to be left alone.
They starve their people and enjoy basketballs from Dennis Rodman.

Very strange culture.

My call...... Do something stupid and dear leader turns into glass first.

Neither Iran nor North Korea posses a hydrogen bomb. Neither one of them is up to the technology challenges such a device presents. You have to first master the fission technology just to initiate the fusion reaction.

I doubt a North Korean A-bomb would even work. The only test of which we are aware was a fizzle. A Dud.

The one constant of nuclear deterrence since September 1945 is that every country with nuclear weapons just wanted to have them; none of them ever really wanted to use them.

Until now.
