UN: North Korea may be capable of putting nuclear devices on ballistic missiles

. .
Honestly given how the US intelligence has a penchant for underestimating adversaries, I would not be surprised at all if North Korea has miniaturized their warheads to this degree

@Figaro

North Korea already tested Hwasong-15, demonstrating a road mobile ICBM with 13000 km range. Even though it has liquid fuel, they use the same stable fuel mix as Russian SLBMs, which is stable and can be kept in storage. In addition their most recent nuclear test was of a miniaturized 250 kT fusion boosted device.

That is to say, North Korea's nuclear deterrence has already exceeded that of India's, which has the Agni-V as the longest range missile at merely 5000 km and 45 kT as largest test. India is weaker than North Korea.

Further proof: Agni-V is smaller than Hwasong-15 (50000 kg vs 72000 kg, 17.5 m vs. 22.5 m length).

India is probably 10 to 20 years behind North Korea in this regard tbh

North Korea has completed the study of the miniaturization of nuclear weapons. If North Korea's intercontinental ballistic missiles are also completed, the United States will have a nightmare.
What would the United States do if North Korea sent one ICBM off the waters of Silicon Valley?
Will the United States compromise? ? Or gather hundreds of thousands of troops to invade North Korea? Or leave North Korea alone, let him launch one every month?

tell me this please, how are we supposed to trust nations like Iran and North-Korea and China when they're armed with nuclear ICBMs?

in my view, this will only lead to an increase in tensions.
is this what this alliance of China and North Korea and Iran want?
why?

The American army used depleted uranium anti-armor shells in Iraq at large scale. In the Korea War the Americans almost used atom bombs.

If there is one rogue and reckless government, with or without being nuclear armed, it is the American government plus its NATO allies.

says the guy from the nation that fights pointless wars over a bunch of useless mountain hills in Kashmir..

at least the wars that NATO fights are substantial in meaning. we provide freedom and economic stability to our allies.

India protects rapists that roam it's cities and countrysides, upholds a kaste system that is nothing less than ancient yet also modern-day slavery, and keeps the Kashmiris violently oppressed over some national pride war that they fight with neighboring China, without ever reaching real resolution to the conflict.

so let's not get into a discussion about who is worse. you're sure to lose that discussion.

No we should trust america who used nukes on unarmed Japanese civilians during world war 2 and has killed 100s of millions of non-White people across the globe over the last 70 years or so...............:disagree:

Japan was never going to quit it's WW2 activities without getting nuked. We had to nuke it TWICE to convince it to surrender.
That saved many many lives, Japanese lives too.

As for your other claim : where's your evidence? Let's go over all of it.

Firstly, if you read my signature you will find me a anti-military anti-war person.

Secondly, I am not in support of the Indian Establishment in its continuation of the approx 700,000 soldiers in Kashmir. In my humble way I have written a solution to the India-Pakistan rivalry especially the Kashmir issue. You can read it in this thread.

at least the wars that NATO fights are substantial in meaning.

USA, a two-party capitalist dictatorship with many homeless people invaded Libya which was a democracy with no homeless people. Look at the current state of Libya after the 2011 invasion by NATO and its thousands of proxy fighters. What was substantial about the 2011 war ?

we provide freedom and economic stability to our allies.

Freedom from what ?

India protects rapists that roam it's cities and countrysides

Rapes in India I believe are to do with not only a sexually repressed culture but also of males who are not disciplined enough.

upholds a kaste system that is nothing less than ancient yet also modern-day slavery

I am a Muslim and a socialist who has nothing to do with the caste system. And you will find Hindu progressives like the former student leader Kanhaiya Kumar who want freedom against the Brahminical tyranny which promotes caste system.
