Ryongchon - Nuclear Trigger for American Conscription?
2004-04-30
Don't bogart the White Slag, dude!

Viewed through the eyes of desperate Zionist neocons like Wolfowitz, Rumsfeld and Sharon, if North Korea could be successfully provoked into action by a small tactical nuclear strike deep inside its own territory, the most likely response would be 5,000 North Korean artillery shells per hour raining down on Seoul, the capital of South Korea.
Yeah, that'd do it.

Within days or weeks, the United States of America would once again be obliged to protect South Korea and the rest of the western world from the Communist "Red Menace", this time artificially reborn as "Axis of Evil" member North Korea. Clearly this new 'patriotic defensive' action against Korea would require hundreds of thousands of American conscripts.
No, it'd require a couple of guys turning keys at the same time, but please, continue.

Although Iraq is where the conscripts are really needed, no sane American would accept the illegal invasion of Iraq as justification for conscription, because all have already worked out that this stupefying atrocity in the Middle East has nothing to do with weapons of mass destruction, nothing to do with Saddam Hussein, and absolutely nothing to do with American national security. Trying to enforce conscription today in a visible attempt to obtain the extra 500,000 troops needed to steal Iraq's oil reserves for the Zionist madmen on Wall Street, would simply result in every campus across America exploding into justifiably violent protests.
Which is why the only people asking for a draft seem to be Democrats.

Because the photographs and other hard evidence in this report completely rule out an "accident" in Ryongchon, we are left with the harsh reality that one of the most important strategic locations in the whole of North Korea was deliberately nuked with a relatively low-yield weapon, by a nation or nations currently unknown.
Guess who?

This inevitably draws us to ask who has the opportunity, motive and method for the attack, or, put another way, to ask which nations on earth have the nuclear weapons, stealth delivery systems, and the political need to vaporize more than a thousand North Koreans civilians in a cowardly sneak attack reminiscent of Pearl Harbor.
(raises hand) That would be me, I dun it, and I'm glad!

Nowadays there are dozens of nations with declared or undeclared nuclear weapons, but only a handful with long range precision stealth delivery systems, the latter limited to America, Russia, China, France and Great Britain. Of these five possible candidates for the sneak nuclear attack, only America has openly labeled North Korea a member of the mythical "Axis of Evil", and, equally, warned openly of horrific but unspecified military reprisals if North Korea does not stop supplying missile delivery systems to Iran. Thus before we even take into account America's current perilous military predicament in Iraq, there is only one candidate out of the five left with the necessary motive for the attack.
He goes on, and on, and on, but you get the idea.

Comment: Rail tankers(in the U.S.)are designed to blow out the ends.The theory is that this directs the blast up/down the track limiting destruction along the tracks.
That is the theory anyway
Saw a training film,there was a tanker car in Northern Az.on fire.When the car blew the ends were what blew.There was a firefighting crew onsite,the only one who lived was the guy on the Ladder truck and they found him blown a couple of hundred yards away.

#16  Ruprecht-

I refer everyone to the 1970's Woody Allen movie, "Sleeper"

The leader had died in an explosion, and all they could find is the nose which they wanted to clone into a whole new leader.

These guys are that crazy? Probably Not. But the thought must be crossing their minds. Especially if they found the nose.

#15  Read an article yesterday where a guy questioned what happened to Kimmie? Nobody has seen him since the accident. I don't know if that's true but I haven't seen him and I would think he'd want to rant out in public and blame the west or something over he explosion.

i guess china has leaped a decade in its stealth delivery technology and france has finally updated it 70's era nuclear force

#13  LP Gas Old Pat.

Heavy reailcar underneath. Fiberglass/steel contrainer riding it.

Gasoline car explodes nearby, topples LPGas car, lpgas overpressurizes and ruptures then explodes - making for a very directional blast, especially to one side or out the endcaps. If the cars derailed, they probably topples to the same side (toward the city) and the explosion was channeld in that direction using the car chassis as a baseplate, kind of like the old backplated shaped charges.

No need to go tin-foil-hat. Its simple physics.

#12  One thing I noticed when I was looking at the enhanced images from the "after" shot is that the damage was quite directional. Almost all of the power of the blast was directed to the right on the image, toward the city. Very little was directed to the left, toward the rest of the railyard. I'll be looking at the "before" image posted after I left yesterday, to see if there's a geographic reason for that. If not, I'll have to do some serious thinking about what might have been contained in those railcars.

#8  That is either the biggest spoof site I've yet seen (like the false news story plants on T.Heinz Kerry's Indymedia), or someone is definitely off his medications for manic paranoid schizophrenia.

It boggles the mind that anyone could even believe 1/10 ofwhat is on that site is true, much less gobbling the whole articles.

#3  A long time ago, the US did a lot of research on using nuclear devices, not weapons per se, to dig long trenches. The idea was that they might be used to dig a new Panama Canal, for example.
That being said, if a reasonably small number of "trenching" nukes were used on the mountains within arty range of Seoul, they might effectively 'strip mine' out even heavily fortified, reinforced positions, but with relatively little residual contamination.

But Dick Cheney has already applied the screws to China to sit on Fearless Leader's nuclear ambitions, them getting in the way of China's own territorial and economic ambitions. So if they must, don't be surprised if the guns facing Seoul prove to be as useless as the Maginot Line. That is, pointing in the wrong direction.
