North Korea stoked regional tensions Wednesday, threatening more nuclear tests and saying additional sanctions imposed on it would be considered an act of war, as nervous neighbors raced to bolster defenses and punish Pyongyang.

South Korea said it was making sure its troops were prepared for atomic warfare, and Japan imposed new economic sanctions to hit the economic lifeline of the communist nation's 1 million-member military, the world's fifth-largest.

North Korea, in its first formal statement since Monday's claimed atomic bomb test, hailed the blast as a success and said attempts by the outside world to penalize North Korea with sanctions would be considered an act of war.

Further pressure will be countered with physical retaliation, the North's Foreign Ministry warned in a statement carried by the official Korean Central News Agency.

Quit taking my hard earned money away from me and my family and paying for these N.Koreans to eat.
They then take their own money to make nukes to kill my family.
Damn.

They are plastic covers to keep seepage away from the missiles. The missiles, when launched, fly through them.

North Korea threatens more nuclear tests

Judging by the first "test", I'd say they don't have enough or any nuclear material for a real nuke bomb. Go Ahead, keep "testing" and waste what little you have.

President Bush said he will keep open all options regarding North Korea's setting off nukes.

After careful investigation and after a meeting with Bush's National Security Advisor, I can now reveal what those options are, there are three:

1. Use harsh words.

2 Report it to the U. N.

3. Give "Porky Pig" a few billion more dollars to stop it..
