Breaking: North Korea -might- have nuclear missile, says US Defense Intelligence Agency, maybe

[[Seed Eater]]

[quote](CNN) -- A study just completed by the U.S. Defense Intelligence Agency says North Korea may have nuclear weapons that could be delivered by ballistic missiles, a congressman said Thursday.
The revelation came from Rep. Doug Lamborn, R-Colorado, during a House Armed Services Committee hearing.
"Quoting from the unclassified portion, which I believe has not yet been made public, they say, quote, 'DIA assesses with moderate confidence the North currently has nuclear weapons capable of delivering by ballistic missiles. However, the reliability will be low.'" Lamborn told Joint Chiefs Chairman Gen. Martin E. Dempsey, who was testifying before the committee.
Lamborn asked Dempsey whether he agreed with the assessment. Dempsey appeared to be caught off guard.
"Well, I haven't seen it," Dempsey replied. "And you said it's not publicly released, so I -- I choose not to comment on it."

U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon later told CNN's Wolf Blitzer, "We do not have any independent information to verify" the DIA study's assessment.[/quote]

This is news as of 5:50 PM EST, we previously had nothing to say that there was any sort of nuclear warhead capabilities.

Did they start a kickstarter or something to fund the missile?

Megathreads aren't allowed anymore, and for good reasons
It makes catching up with the news harder, not easier

We know they have nukes. We're just unsure whether or not they have nukes that are small enough to put on a missile. Just cause you got nukes don't mean you can use them effectively.

Oh my god I am so fucking sick of these threads.

Ban all NK threads until they nuke us or start to fall back on their threats
