US gov’t and other sources say #DPRK has apparently placed a nuclear device in a tunnel and it could be detonated Saturday AM #Korea time.

“We have no comment at this time but we will be watching closely,” an NSC official tells @VOANews.

The waveform for a nuke is shaped differently than for a conventional blast of comparable yield.

From what I’ve gathered through the years...he has a huge labyrinth of tunnels and mansions underground.

I think they're doing it sooner than Saturday, although I know Saturday is the big Day of the Sun celebration.

They have lots of reporters who flew in for the big celebration coverage, and I'm seeing two different ones reporting that they're being taken someplace today (don't know where or how long it'll take to get there).

They're being told they can't take electronic devices and will have multiple security checks, which usually means Kim Jong-Un will be in attendance.

One of the reporters thinks the plan is for a two-fer... the underground nuclear detonation AND another missile launch.

***I’ve missed kicking commie ass.***

Are you going to be physically over there “kicking commie ass,” or are you just excited to see our young men go die on the Korean Peninsula again?

If you are in the military and going, God speed and kick ass. If not, how about we let the Commie Chinese and South Korea deal with their own mess and keep our boys here.

Watch these holidays. They are as bad as the muzz with their ‘significant dates’.

Update: Today's outing for the reporters was to take them to the unveiling of a new residential development project...tens of buildings, one at least 70 stories... one of Kim's pet projects. Kim Jong-Un was there for the opening.

When Kim left the stage and his limo drove away the applause abruptly stopped. The silence was unlike anything the reporter had ever heard before.

A test tunnel?

That is my thinking but one can never know for sure with the beating of the war drums in your ears.

Setting it off Saturday AM. Korean time? DC time? When monkeys fly out Obama's ass time?

A Chinese invasion and annexation would be a mercy bullet for the Norks.

There are huge tunnels ready to break through to the south in the demilitarized zone. Is it one of these?

Why don’t we see what happens before getting all hot and bothered about real men and seeing John Wayne in our dreams.

I am optimistic something will be done, but so far what we’ve had is the equivalent of the missile attack on the Al-Shifa pharmaceutical factory in Khartoum.
