Mushroom is a shape, and it's created because gas in the center is hotter and rises faster than the other crap.

It happens when gasoline goes up too.

Anyway, everyone knows NK has nukes who cares?

Can you even imagine how much gasoline it would take to make a crater that big?
NK is full of kamikazes. Last thing we fucking need is those retarded assholes getting functional nukes. I think someone should napalm the whole country "for the good of the planet".

And wipe out the USA at the same time? I think NK is as much of a threat as Iraq was.

I reiterate, how is "mushroom" a size? Mushroom is a shape, a "mushroom cloud" is generally in referance to an atom bomb, but it in no way a gauge of size.

Actually, it was 2.1 miles WIDE, I'm too lazy to actually find the height though.

I heard from my history professor that the explosion and the mushroom cloud were caused when they were blowing up the side of a mountain to make room for a hydroelectric dam. Explosives like that don't leave a 2.1 mile wide mushroom cloud. This coverup is utter bullshit and my bs detector is detecting some serious bullshit. I think they should come fucking clean for once or suffer the consequences.

And another thing since when was it ok to detonate explosive of that magnitude. I thought there were international treaties covering that MASSIVE WEAPONS such as nukes couldn't be used in times of peace or when not in war.

Super-H, they meant the inproper choice of words.

"Size of a mushroom" = a few inches
"Shape of a mushroom" = the fucking SHAPE of a mushroom

Mushroom-sized could means a few inches high cloud. That's what they mean.

I know Congo has a lot of uranium (refined and otherwise), but that it has used nuclear weapons against someone? I did a few quick searches on Google but found nothing.

Fucking oath, you are unbelievably moronic. Realistically America is more of a threat regarding the use of nuclear weaponry, with a nod of 'thanks' to the current administration's lax foreign policy. They after all possess the largest and most comprehensive arsenal of nuclear, and I suspect chemical and biological weaponry. Further, they possess the aggression and disregard for things like common sense to potentially consider employing such weapons as they valiantly defend themselves from third world countries etc. Using your 'logic' :

' OMGZ !!!! 11, WE MUZT NUK ALL TEH YANKEEZ, FOR THA GUD UV PLANIT!!! OMGWFT!?11 '

Makes sense, doesn't it ?

In closing, it is cretins like you who often state how nuking Mecca during the Hajj would solve 'the Muslim problem', and similar 'good' ideas. You're a narrow minded moron. :drunk:

An Economist article I read restated from some other source that North Korean weapons could reach the west coast of the US.

But none of this matters. It'll be the briefcase bomb that really rattles the windows, not the ICBM. If and when it comes to that of course.

And the conspiracy theorist in me feels that a this was probably a cover up for some real test, probably underground near the site. What better way to hide a seismic event than with another one?

The Taepo Dong 2 missile has the (supposed) capability to reach the US West Coast, thats why there was the big hub bub about N. Koreas missile program + nuclear program. The actual range varies from source to source, one saying 3,650-3,750 km another saying 4,000-4,300 km but both say with a 700-1000 kg payload. This would actually put it in the range of Alaska and islands like Hawaii, but lighterweight variations can supposibily reach the west coast. The missile is effectively over 6 times that of the N. Korean Hwasong 6 scud missile.


The ICBM has actually been in development since 87 and as such has been around for awhile, so its not suprisingly that they probably have tested it and variations of it.

Too bad the Chinese still have longer range missiles.

So the threat itself isn't much to begin with. The MAD- theory still works. It feels like cold war all over again!

do you honestly honestly think that the civilans in korea wanna nuke you? Why is korea having nukes such a big deal anyway? The only country stupid enough to use em is USA.

Well, hopefully EU will impose penalty fees on USA soon enough, as decided by the WTO that they have the right to du, since the US government support of industries is breaking some trade agreement. Not that it will have(or should have) any effect on nukes and such things.

It doesn't matter what the civilians of a dictatorship want.

And I think it was smart of us to lob nukes around back when we were the only country that had them.
