NORTH KOREA SAYS HYDROGEN BOMB TEST WAS "PERFECT SUCCESS":
Posted onNorth Korea said on Sunday 3 Sept. 2017, it has successfully tested a hydrogen bomb designed to be mounted on its newly developed intercontinental ballistic missile, producing a greater yield than any of its previous nuclear tests. The hydrogen bomb test ordered by leader Kim Jong-un was a "perfect success" and was a "meaningful" step in completing the country's nuclear weapons program, state television said. The announcement came hours after a large earthquake that appeared to be man-made was detected near the North's known nuclear test site, indicating that the reclusive country had conducted its sixth nuclear test. South Korea said that North Korea's defiant sixth nuclear test should be met with the "strongest possible" response, including new UN Security Council sanctions to "completely isolate" the country. Seoul and Washington also discussed deploying USA strategic military assets to the Korean peninsula after North Korea defied international warnings and conducted its most powerful nuclear test ever. (Reuters) In July of 2014, critics of the Obama-supported Iranian deal warned that even if the Iranians agreed to limit nuclear work, such would be a standing invitation for Tehran to cheat its way to a nuclear weapon. The same strategy was and has been used by North Korea since the Clinton and Bush administrations wrongly assumed the deals they signed with Pyongyang would be adhered to. So what’s to keep Iran from following in suite, and who’s going to do anything about either of these nations that are thumbing their noses at the West? Pray according to scripture: "Those who war against you shall be as nothing…. For I, the Lord your rougeGod, will hold your right hand, saying to you, ‘Fear not, I will help you.’” Isa. 41:12-13
