The Washington Times (owner: Sun Myung Moon) is reporting leaked preliminary intelligence that the NoKo nuke may have been a no-go.
It takes a high-explosive charge to compress the critical mass of a nuke to make the fission. And the preliminaries suggest that the high explosives went off, but the nuke didn't. In other words, Kim's bomb may have been a dud, rather like his missiles.
It's hard to believe that Kim's command economy is having difficulty with quality control, let alone the honesty of its publicity. And who wants to trust a South Korean cult leader to report on a North Korean cult leader?
But it could be true. Just maybe.
