North Korea Tests Nuclear Bomb

Monday, October 9th, 2006

If you haven’t heard, North Korea has tested a nuclear weapon in an underground test in Gilju in the Hamgyong province. The BBC is covering the news, and CNN is reporting it as well.

According to the official news service of North Korea, there has been no radiation leakage from the test site, and the test was a success. South Korea reports having felt a 3.5 magnitude earthquake. China and Japan are pissed off and are possibly gearing up for war, as is the United States.

Nice going Kim Jong-il, you have chosen the path of destruction, of which there is no turning back.

Update: Pictures of what its like to be in North Korea
