Korea Nuclear

The 2020 Commission Report on the North Korean Nuclear Attacks Against the United States is an exciting piece of "speculative fiction." The novel posits that there was a nuclear attack against the US on March 21, 2020 by North Korea, and that a national bipartisan commission was created to investigate what and how it happened. It's pretty scary stuff.

North Korea's bizarre feuds with the rest of the world have been turned into comedy gold time and time again, perhaps because their endless threats seem so far removed from reality. But just how serious is the threat of nuclear war against North Korea? North Korea’s Nuclear Program: The History of the Hermit Kingdom’s Development of Nuclear Weapons looks at how North Korea has developed and tested destructive nuclear weapons over the past several decades.

Anna Fifield reconstructs Kim's past and present with exclusive access to sources near him and brings her unique understanding to explain the dynastic mission of the Kim family in North Korea. The archaic notion of despotic family rule matches the almost medieval hardship the country has suffered under the Kims. Few people thought that a young, untested, unhealthy, Swiss-educated basketball fanatic could hold together a country that should have fallen apart years ago. But Kim Jong Un has not just survived, he has thrived.

The Shadow Empire: How Authoritarians Built a Parallel World Order While America was fighting the war on terror, China and Russia were building something far more dangerous: an alternative to the entire Western system. The "rules-based international order" is crumbling. Not from external attack, but from internal rot and external alternatives. While Western leaders still speak as if American dominance is eternal, authoritarian powers have quietly constructed a shadow empire—complete with parallel financial systems, trade networks, and political alliances that make Western sanctions ...

There is a little-known reason why a closed-off, impoverished country like North Korea, ruled by an almost cartoonish but brutal dictator, threatens the United States, the most powerful nation on earth. That reason is that North Korea’s nuclear program, which today targets the United States, was built upon a foundation laid by Japan’s World War II attempt to make an atomic bomb. Japan’s search for resources during World War II spanned most of Asia, as did its multiple and varied secret atomic projects. Korea and China, both occupied by the Japanese, played significant roles in the ...

The idea of creating a computer worm capable of attacking uranium enrichment facilities could not come up out of nowhere. It all began with two isolated events, which happened in different geographical places and years apart from each other. The first event took place in India near Pakistan’s eastern border in 1974. The second event happened in the coastal city of Taranto, Italy, in 2003. Despite the fact that both events took place outside Iran, they combined to create a background for everything that later would become known as the Stuxnet computer worm and its cyber-attacks against the...

Iran is bracing for war and poised to make an armed grab for regional hegemony. Its leadership in Tehran is preparing to play a secret military trump card.

Shock and awe air strikes have so far failed to destroy Iran's hardened weapons development facilities, its protected missile launch sites, or its bomb-proof and hard-to-find aircraft hangars. Iran's vast ...

North Korea would be horrific enough if it was a fictional place, but its nuclear weapons program is all too real. Meanwhile, rumors regarding Iran's nuclear capabilities have understandably left many nations on the edges of their seats. Experts insist that the Iranian propaganda program is chiefly responsible for entrenching into its masses a resentment of the West, unlike North Korea, which proudly walls itself off from the rest of civilization.

Arguing that North Korea is little more than a carefully constructed Chinese puppet state, the author looks into the heart of this "rogue nation" and finds the Chinese behind much of the terrorism and nuclear weapons manufacturing on the Korean peninsula.

In mid-2017, President Donald Trump let Kim Jong-un know that if his threats continued they would be met with “fire and fury the likes the world has never seen”. The scorching tweet went viral immediately. In response, the North Korean leader detonated a 100-kiloton hydrogen bomb, a successful test of a nuclear device which would be mounted on future missiles.

Of the many aircraft carriers built by the United States since World War II, none have been successfully attacked by an aggressor. Not yet, that is. It is the final port call during the first deployment of a new US Navy aircraft carrier. There is no better place for a week of shore leave than an allied port way down south on the 42nd parallel. It’s quiet, friendly, out-of-the-way—perfect—because nothing ever happens here. But the location is ideal for another nation too—a superpower with strategic ambitions. It is perfect for an unthinkable attack where the Americans would not ...
