To hope that the weird 'earthquakes' in North Korea are actually the underground test sites/storage bunkers for nuclear weapons collapsing in on themselves

And now KJU will be having to bluff like crazy?

I can hope.

Possible but unlikely, I am expecting a war to have kicked off by Christmas.

I actually bought tinned turkey to eat in Christmas Day in the basement last week

Oh that's sad.

Meh, it is what it is, all we can do is prepare, improvise and adapt to a new way of living.

There has always been war and conflict. We are actually living in a really safe time. Imagine being in the 40s having lived through two world wars within a couple of decades.

I think the earthquakes are the consequences of more tests.

What a nerry christmas they are expecting in the kursk household 😂

The seismologists on Twitter have interesting things to say about it so fingers crossed eh.

Once North Korea is confident that their weapons are reliable they will undoubtedly move to atmospheric testing in the Pacific rather than sticking with underground testing. That way there will be no doubt that they have powerful weapons, because the evidence will be plain to see. Yes, atmospheric testing is banned, but then I doubt Kim will care.

A nuclear war is an inevitability sooner or later. It's actually the best-case scenario: the only way humans won't make themselves extinct is for some cataclysmic event to take the decision away from them, such as a massive asteroid hitting the earth.

All we can do is prepare ourselves for a major war, and hope the death and destruction are contained to the area in and around Korea. The merciful thing is that I don't believe North Korea has enough firepower to attack much more than South Korea and perhaps Japan, so the MAD concept of the Cold War doesn't really apply. Yes, millions will die, but it will not have the catastrophic global that the US & Allies v USSR & China conflict would have. A nuclear Korean war the world can survive, a nuclear world war it can't.
