Iran and Korea have deep tunnel systems to protect their nuclear assets – tunnels too deep for us to destroy – even with nuclear weapons*.
Dr. Charles Krauthammer claims that we cannot defeat Iranian tunnel systems. Iran also threatened to block the Straits of Hormuz if attacked. The conclusion was that we will give up the [...]

Nutty Norks with Nukes?
The North Korean announcement today bragging about their nuclear weapons, dropping out of the 6-way talks, and announcing a restart of their nuclear reactor has many ramifications.
Nobody is surprised when they claim they have nukes. In fact, they probably do have them – no surprise.
A desire to blackmail the US is behind [...]

Bill Gertz is one of my favorite national security reporters. Working for the conservative Washington Times, he has outstanding sources in the national security establishment.
Hence I was shocked to read an article by Gertz and Scarborough containing (emphasis added):
Israel has ready a plan to bomb Iran’s Bushehr nuclear-power plant should the Persian Gulf [...]

So North Korea plans to test a nuke (probably on a national holiday on Sept. 9).
Well, if I were Osama, I’d want to verify that the merchandise worked. And plutonium-based nukes, which is what they probably have, are tricky to make, which is why the US had to test one before using it in WW-II.
