North Korea Announces Plans To Dismantle Nuclear Test Site (npr.org)
The Associated Press is reporting North Korea has announced plans to dismantle its nuclear test site between May 23 and 25. The dismantling will occur before President Trump is scheduled to meet with Kim Jong-un in Singapore on June 12. NPR reports: Reuters reports that Punggye-ri nuclear test site has been the location of all of North Korea's six known nuclear tests. At the site, there's a system of tunnels under the mountain Mount Mantap. Journalists from the United States, South Korea, China, Russia and Britain will be invited to watch a special ceremony in which all of the tunnels at the testing ground will be destroyed and observation and research facilities and guard units will be taken down. The North Korean government will provide journalists with a charter flight from Beijing to Wosnan, North Korea. From there, a train will take them to the test site in the northeast part of the country.
The AP also reports that at a ruling party meeting last month, North Korea announced the plan to close the nuclear testing ground, along with a commitment to suspend all tests of nuclear devices and ICBMs. At that same meeting, however, North Korea said it has been performing a kind of nuclear test classified as "subcritical." The "subcritical" experiments give scientists an opportunity to test weapons without causing an actual nuclear chain reaction and explosion.

You were the one nation on this planet still sticking up against Evil, but now they apparently have blackmailed you into submission. Very sad. You will now become yet another slave people.
go ahead and send a flight of three B-52s loaded up with 60 cruise missiles to go ahead and eliminate most of the major buildings in North Korea. ... no idea why you proclaim such barbaric actions. Are you a barbarian?
Was tried before
When Hideoshi Toyotomi left Korea in 1598 with his troops, he ordered them to destroy all stone buildings they passed.
Sorry, mad pigs like you, who demand bombing another country back into the stone age, are not better than The Kim family, or Pol Pot and should be euthanized for the better of mankind.
but it would be easy for the US
Why? NK is on another continent. What the fuck does the US care about a backyard country elsewhere?

You mean besides the money from the saudis. And the money from russia, morroco, and so on(that's all from the clinton foundation email leaks). So far the only thing Mueller has is trying to cover his ass as this case collapses around him like all of his other 'high profile' cases(Enron is a really good one with every conviction overturned and a rebuke by the courts). So far, his team have tried to claim they have 'secret privilege' and don't need to disclose to the court various information. They've also illegally refused to disclose exculpatory evidence as required by law. Just to name a few things.
