Only one solution, nuke them before they nuke us

Aslong as Australia does nothing to piss them off I am safe! Too bad for whoever get's hit by one of those though.

CNN and everyone else on TV still says it is unconfirmed

Also here is something else that could be considered bad news. http://www.thenews.com.pk/top_story_detail.asp?Id=3513

If they hold true to their statement, I guess we'd see something between September 24th - October 23rd. I wonder where they will strike

Well, at best, it would only be for NK to defend themselves if we invade. But with our luck, Bush will. JK.

Well, I'm not saying the news has confirmed it, but NK is confirming it themselves.. so we just need to wait. Either way, it's bad that they are even close to getting it working.

I don't see why everybody is getting on NK's ass about nukes. Mind your own business, let them do what they want to do. It's there country, there resources, so stfu. This seriously pisses me off when people (not you Andrew, just gov't/news in general) get mad about other countries testing nuclear weapons.

America has tested nuclear weapons. We have a ton of em. We manufacture Uranium all the time. Yet we have a problem with other countries doing the same as us? Thats hypocritical, and selfish. And remember, the US is the only country that has used nuclear weapons for war. So shouldn't everybody else be pissed off at the US?

Thats my rant for the day, take it for what its worth.

Umm, point out where I said that we should have nukes and that we should be the only ones to have them. Sure, the world doesn't want us to have nukes, and we don't want others to have them. They try to stop us, we try to stop them. The main reason we get all jittery over NK having nukes, is the same reason they hate us for having them, killing soldiers or innocent people. I KNOW that we have alot, and we are acting the same way as other people act towards our country over the whole nuke situation.

That post wasn't directed towards you andrew. It was more of thinking out loud.

Oh, I know, I saw that. I was trying to explain a possible reason for everyone else to act like they are with NK and nukes.

OMGWTF etc. etc.
Not to remind that they have no capabilites of putting that nuke on a missile, controlled underground tests are quite different from nuke warheads.
Nuclear defense is a good defense, this one should keep the Bush people from attacking this "axis of evil" country...

remember that cnn is a government controlled news channel?
you could think that this is another thing to get us scared and put more trust and money into our government and think they will protect us
