BREAKING!! NORTH KOREA JUST TESTED THEIR NUKE!!

Seriously I'm scared guys what's gonna happen :(

are you a girl? just asking

My late grandfather was a Korean War vet and always said that WWIII would start with North Korea...

Pyongyang, February 12 (KCNA) -- The Korean Central News Agency released the following report on Tuesday:

The scientific field for national defence of the DPRK succeeded in the third underground nuclear test at the site for underground nuclear test in the northern part of the DPRK on Tuesday.

The test was carried out as part of practical measures of counteraction to defend the country's security and sovereignty in the face of the ferocious hostile act of the U.S. which wantonly violated the DPRK's legitimate right to launch satellite for peaceful purposes.

The test was conducted in a safe and perfect way on a high level with the use of a smaller and light A-bomb unlike the previous ones, yet with great explosive power. It was confirmed that the test did not give any adverse effect to the surrounding ecological environment.

The specific features of the function and explosive power of the A-bomb and all other measurements fully tallied with the values of the design, physically demonstrating the good performance of the DPRK's nuclear deterrence that has become diversified.

The nuclear test will greatly encourage the army and people of the DPRK in their efforts to build a thriving nation with the same spirit and mettle as displayed in conquering space, and offer an important occasion in ensuring peace and stability in the Korean Peninsula and the region. -0-

Alert level lowered...doom off. Nothing to see here move along.

so what if I was? I'm scared bitch!

its funny they dont even mention energy or anything..they just say its for weapons...iran even trys to act like its for energy,even though they would use if for energy also i think,but not north korea...their main goal is to bomb us

Screw the North Koreans...They are just playing the same old war drum song and looking for more money from the USA.

Look at how many bases we have in So Korea.

We could hit them from the South or...we could take them out in a heart beat with a nuke from Guam.

Time to fill their kimchi pots with green backs and shut them up for another year or so.

no thats good,if you are girl...because no need to go crazy,but i could see girl freaking out,but not a guy really,nothings happened yet

And what will this lead to???

Just so we understand the worst-case scenario, China would support North Korea if war were to break out. China wants North Korea around as a buffer between itself and South Korea. That's a major reason why high-skilled employees, educated citizens, and workforce don't try to cross the border. If South Korea (and higher quality of life, freedom of speech and information) is right there, then flocks of Chinese will cross it. China will lose its tight grip on its citizens from the more porous barrier between its people and democracy, freedom of speech, higher standard of living.

Although history says this will fizzle out, it's still unsettling when you consider the drastic impact this can have on the world.

Mine too...he served in ww2 and the Korean war, but he would hardly talk about the Korean war....he said it was like walking through hell every day...

yes now what?! more sanctions and condemnations

Exactly. For more Sanctions!

you drunk?.....

no no, even better, we will send them angry letters

i dont think we'll do anything unless our assets,israel,japan or south korea physically attacked...to me the way its looking,we know losing foot in mideast,look for us to join the african front and get foot in there for forward operating bases for future

No worries, we will send them more rice and cabbage and they will shut up for a while.

US & Japan launching airborne assets to try to detect traces of radioactive gases from #DPRK #nuclear test.

But all they will do is talk at the UN. No-one respects folks who talk but never act. Anyway it's good that they are just talking as a war in that region would be devastating.

UNSC will meet in about 6 hours

You might want to research, much has come out in the last few months.

did anyone catch the fact that north korea just had a 5m quake?

Nothing gonna happen there. China will not permit any UN action beyond a statement condemning the action. But talk means nothing to the North - they even sunk a South Korean ship a year or so ago and all that was done was talk.
