SEOUL (Reuters) - A mushroom cloud up to 2.5 miles in diameter was seen after an explosion in a remote area of North Korea (news - web sites) near the border with China, Yonhap news agency reported on Sunday, quoting sources in Beijing.



The South Korean news agency said Thursday's blast in Kimhyungjik county in Yanggang province appeared to much worse than a train explosion that killed at least 170 people in April.


South Korean intelligence officials said they were monitoring the report, but declined detailed comment.

Where'd you see that? Drudge doesn't even have it up.

it was just a very large vegatable stir fry accident...

the're just testing one of their nuclear bombs, what's the problem?

If it is true we need to use the Neutron Bomb ASAP on them.

It's one thing to own a Nuke..it's another to get it to the target...

Which is....Japan, South Korea, USA, China, Russia....

I'll give U all one GUESS as to what happens to N Korea if they should accidently use one of their bombs on one of the above targets.

Having one of those things makes one become a responsible actor....

I suppose there is a Trident Missle Nuclear Sub just cruising back and forth out in the Pacific with a couple of the missles (MIRVS) targeted for N Korea....

Silly Rabbit... Only the USA can have weapons of mass destruction...

your avatar is a weapon of mass destruction.

:D

If by 'worked very well' means 'had our heads up our asses' then yes, it worked very well. Containment doesn't, hasn't, and won't work. You can't find one specific example of where containment has been effective in the long run.

Well there was that whole Vietnam thing. That was a success, right?

How much has Communism spread since vietnam? umm, not at all is the correct answer. The idea that the spread of communism to vietnam was tied to russia is logical, consindering Ho Chi Minh was an avowed communist, educated in Paris and Moscow.

How did John F. Kennedy put it in his inaguration speech?
See, there were reasonable democrats at one time.

Vietnam was a winnable war, it was just run completely wrong. Bombing missions and individual troop movements were dictated from the White House instead of from the battleground. Hippies like John Kerry coming back to demoralize the country didn't help at all. But a man that friendly to communism couldn't help but hope for a US Loss.

That's John F. Kerry with Tom Harkin meeting with Daniel ortega, Communist Sandinista leader.

If you believe containment won the cold war and that china is a success, you have a serious issue with reality.

Selective leftie memories...they tend to forget who was in the White House when the USA gave N. Korea Nuke power plants...and it was such a short time ago!

Yep...same administration that allowed accurate guidance systems for ICBMs to be sold to China since they could not develop any of their own that were accurate enough to target cities in the US. Aren't we nice to share!!!That was equally in our best interests...LOL

lefties love the idea of mutual assured destruction. it's only fair, right??

Nah, they were out wokking the dog.

Indeed. I've taken some heat here recently for some of my remarks, and when I see what others say, I wonder......

Okay, at the risk of seeming disrespectful, I'll ask about the decision to invade Iraq on the basis of WMD, while at the same time North Korea seemed to be just begging us to focus that attention on them. Does anyone remember that? They were absolutely taunting Dubya. But he knew who the more dangerous target was, as well as who had the most attractive natural resources. Brave Dubya elected to stay away from the dangers of challenging the bully on the playground (N Korea), and focused instead of the wimp in the corner (that would be Iraq) with the candy bars in his lunch pail (something about hydrocarbons).

We're going to pay for this in many ways. But first, we'll need to deal with the national security erosion-for-oil. Then the financial. Then the world scorn. Then the real dangers that will flourish in the meantime.

Now, perhaps someone will suggest I am being disrespectful while calling all democrats traitors and communists and gays.

How many nations has N. Korea attacked since the '50s? How many terrorists have they paid to be suicide bombers? How many times have they used chemical weapons on their people or other nations?

How can you attack the adminstration for going to war upon provocation and then attack them for not going to war in the absense of provocation?

Since N. Korea has openly backed Kerry for president...did it ever occur to you that this was an attempt to make the current administration look bad immediately prior to the election? Good thing our President is too level-headed to fall for such blatant tactics.
