OK Now I am :scared: I live where they can reach. Time to move away I think.

1. I'm just guessing

but I think they will blow the top off of some remote mountain with a stationery nuke. Just enough to get dubya's attention....again.

2. Actually ,

an underground detonation would be sufficient.

3. I don't think they'll waste a nuke

on a test detonation. I think they could have several, but not enough that they'd want to squander one. I bet a test of a long-range missile is more likely, and possibly just as provocative, especially to Japan.

4. Wouldn't that be a kick in W's nuts.

Two out of the three countries on his "evil axis" list acquire nuclearn weapons shortly after W shoots off hollow threats.
