In summary:

• North Korea says it has conducted a successful underground hydrogen bomb test, a first for the nation
• A hydrogen bomb is more powerful than plutonium weapons, which is what North Korea used in its past nuclear tests
• The U.S. says it may take days to confirm the claim
• Countries in the region issue strong condemnation and hold emergency meetigs

More fun and games for the UN to administer!  I really don't know how people in the world can't wake up and see there is no hope through man's system.  Actually, I do know, it's all explained in the Bible.  Still......

Maybe, it just a late NYE celebration...some people just want to be a big distraction, you know the types, made you look. On a serious note, we will never know how many innocent lives were lost in NK due to this debacle.

Seems many of the nations doubt that NK actually did as they claim

You mean the ones out of reach of the missiles?

Why would anyone lose their life over a North Korean nuclear test?

probably referring to any deaths associated with this, or any previous test, as a result of the pursuit of 'The Bomb'...accidents do happen...

I have a feeling that the news has been given false information from the government because they don't want people to be scared. I also feel like this is possibly mental warfare against N. Korea because they intended on scaring everyone with this big boom. He is very much full of threats and scares for not only the citizens of his country but other countries. He has threatened on numerous occasions he would bomb US and others and he hasn't.

The U.S. Is very good at playing mind games. They don't want him to think they believe him, or that they think it is a very powerful weapon. Anyway, that is my opinion and it could be very wrong.

But we will see these are nutty times!
