I would say the rumors of a test are probably true. Something is going to come down, that is for sure.
As one can see from the chart (from Japanese news), here are the occasions of Kim Jong il dropping out of public sight for long periods of time. (usually during some particular uproar of some sort--asassination plots or negotiation talks failures, or weapons testing invariably). In just 5 days days (next Tuesday) time from now, he will have been out of sight, (and probably underground) for the longest time period ever since assuming power in 1994.
It would appear the rat is underground, getting reports, and plotting his next nuke steps....

Well that's a very interesting piece of information.
I'm thinking that Iran and NK have decided that now is the time to do whatever they want considering that our elections are coming up and they think the US has lost its edge.
I pray they are wrong.

I hope you realize the signifigance of
5 days also?
It is in 5 days that Iran will "give the West an answer" on their nukes.
This is
going to be ugly.
Cheers,
