Taro, if you don't know what I am talking about, you need to educate yourself. Because it will take more than 4 links to get your there. Try following world events. There were many analyses done when those tests were conducted. The first one was more consistent with the chemical explosives than with a fission reaction. The second was somewhat more powerful and there were some radionuclides detected which were characteristic of some fission. However, the yield was far lower than they were expecting from a successful test. If you had been paying attention at the time, you'd know that. But, I suppose it didn't make Fox News... Like NK has no bombers, much less a heavy bomber capable of carrying a first generation weapon. Period. End of story. The fact that you don't know that is indicative of what I am talking about. I am not an expert, nor do I claim to be. But I do know what real experts are saying. And that is what I told you. The speculation is that NK tried to set off two gun type weapons. Think Little Boy. They are not suitable for putting on a missile because the acceleration due to the missiles flight has a fair probability of setting the weapon off prematurely. Now true, hey may have tackled a more challenging implosion type of weapon. But they trying for a propaganda event, not necessarily something they could use. Since they supposedly had sufficiently enriched uranium, that would have been risky. You do know that you can't build a gun type of weapon using plutonium, don't you? Ok, I suppose that you could take the stance that NK had designed and successfully tested an extremely sophisticated low yield weapon. Because the only way to get to a low yield weapon is to build an implosion type with a highly asymmetrical pit. Either that, or NK has hit upon some completely new design techniques. Given your speculation that Obama had his grandmother killed to help his election odds and your persistent and often looney birtherism, the latter theory is probably where you come down.
