Wheeee! This is getting fun!

They don't have any oil, so we won't really be doing anything about this.

North Korea today threatened to "shatter" the conservative South Korean government in Seoul, as reports emerged that Pyongyang claims to have weaponised enough plutonium stocks to produce four or five nuclear bombs.

"There must be some way out of here," said the joker to the thief,
"There's too much confusion, I can't get no relief.
Businessmen, they drink my wine, plowmen dig my earth,
None of them along the line know what any of it is worth."

Where's my boom?

This was paid for by Clinton who gave them millions to go piss off until he was out of office. That or China wanted him to do it. Not sure which, but he is owned by China.

/Don't expect us to toughen standards of Chinese imports in this next administration either.

When the air becomes uranious
we will all go simultaneous
Singin the nuclear rag~!

It could be worse. They could have weaponized plutonium.


/oh shi-

Really? There are no more rat bones and leaves in the whole country? The Dear Leader is going to be pissed!

So is the next step to acquire an Illudium Q-36 Explosive Space Modulator?

What they are really saying is that they have no food, fuel or money.

dillenger69: They don't have any oil, so we won't really be doing anything about this.

Yes, because our oil prices have been so much cheaper since we invaded Iraq.

China will take care of them in .01 seconds if they get too frisky. Not to worry.

Well, they had to do something with it. Once it was downgraded from planet to 'dwarf planet,' you didn't expect them to just leave it sitting around, do you?

So what happens next? South Korea gets blown off the map or does Hiroshima and Nagasaki get a bad case of deja vu?

We have too. Ask Japan about it.

Don't you people worry. Obama has it all solved. All negotiations and diplomacy since the Korean war will be automatically solved by a magic wand post-Jan 20, 2009.

Remember Kim Il Jung (or what ever the fark your name is...) It's not cool to bring a knife to a gunfight, or worse yet, to play knifey-spoony against someone with a whole drawer full of knives...

funny thing is that even I have weaponized plutonium... IN MY PANTS!

BOOYAH!

Where's the Kaboom? Where's the Earth-shattering Kaboom?

They can only hit other brown people, so what's the worry? I mean, really. Isn't this in the 'win' category?

I CAN HAS RECORD OIL COMPANY PROFITS AND I CAN HAS INVESTMENT?

Their nuclear test fissiled because of too much Pu-240 - what you would get running a reactor too long for civilian use. I'd be curious if this stuff is any better. I'd also be curious if they've come even close to being able to mount a nuclear device on one of their missiles.

North Korea says they have weaponized plutonium.
You know what that means? That means the US should invade IRAN!

Wait, wut?

*Keep breathing* Only 70 more hours. *Keep breathing*

Mounting is one thing, being able to have "reach" is another. Iran proved that already with a "satellite" launch last year. It'd be foolish to say that Iran, Syria and N. Koreans aren't working together. They're all buddies with individual component responsibility with the aim of one goal: proliferation.

But...but...but...Bush. Aside from that, and the fact that oil is cheaper, no one except left wingnuts ever suggested the Iraq invasion was about oil. Saddam was pumping as much out of the ground as he could and selling it on the world market.

But North Korea's announcement sounds like they welcome the US having a Democrat in the White House again. They made out pretty well last time.

Lights are coming from the Korean Ocean, too? Interesting image you have there Skip, even though it likely displays something else.

Yeah. The record profits that came five years after we went into Iraq were certainly caused by our presence there. The oil in Iraq was not "taken" by the US, and the profits were used to rebuild Iraq (even though it was not enough on its own.) The only thing keeping Iraqi oil off the market prior to the war was American-supported sanctions which we simply could have lifted if we wanted that oil on the market.

Are people really this dumb?

/wait, don't answer that

It kinda sorta even SAYS visual.

dillenger69: They don't have any oil, so we won't really be doing anything about this.

The rest of the world also didnt want them dealt with because their nuclear program was only for peaceful purposes, or so the official government line said.

TorqueToad: Are people really this dumb?

Well, lots of people in government were dumb enough to vote for the war in Iraq, so if they are true representatives of the people, then yes.

Reporting for duty.

Another Bush success story. Wonder how the spin-doctors will play this one in his library.

We should send Obama to talk with them. His words cure all.

Yeah, well we have weaponized Jesus. Beat that.

A visual of WHAT. It could be a visual of anything but thanks for the input Mr. Hair Splitter. I look forward to your next interloping.

Its possible, oil platforms and all can kick off some serious light. That looks like the NOAA weather satellites of which there is free software using your soundcard and a scanner to decode into images like that.

Just outside Soeul there is a lot of shipping so I can see some serious light pollution from that.

Note to North Korean leader:
1960 called, they want their "Look at me, I'm in the Nuclear Club!" T-shirt back.
Seriously, they got stuff now that make nukes look like a nice option.

They use very powerful lights to attaract whatever they are fishing for, shrimp IIRC.

North Korea's military/middle class and elite are completely underground. They have electricity down there, it's the peasants that do not.

Korea blocks my view of China.
