I don't believe a word of what Kim Jong Idiot has to say. The only thing this freak needs is a .50-cal round to the head. As for his "nuclear" test, it was pretty much a fizzle and he used most of his plutonium to do it.
that would be great, if true.
I dunno about that. The fizzle part may be true, but I believe the fissionable material used was uranium.
Folks who know more than I about testing say that the test was likely to determine whether the first stage of a two stage detonation would work, and this uses uranium to ignite the reaction of a plutonium second stage, and thereby create a hydrogen bomb. the plutonium comes from spent nuke fuel and has a higher yield. You can't make a very small plutonium bomb without big-time knowledge and processes. The yield would have been measurably higher.
This is why Kinny had the uranium enrichment thing going in secret at the time of Clinton's bad deal, and also why Iran is enriching. It takes the two materials to tango, as I understand it, and play with the big boys.

I wouldn't be too sure on that one. We all know his plutonium source is limited but I don't think you need a larger amount of plutonium/yield to know your nuclear technology will cause the fission needed for detonated. An expert here reading this may shed more light into this issue.
