'North Korea claims it has tested its first hydrogen bomb'
"TOKYO — North Korea claimed Wednesday that it had successfully tested a hydrogen bomb, a claim that, if true, would mark a huge step forward in its nuclear capability.
“We’ve carried out a hydrogen bomb test,” a newsreader on the state-run Korean Central Television station announced in a special broadcast from Pyongyang." WaPo

Oh great, Crazy Lil' Kim has the H-bomb?

It was inevitable...
But he can only deliver it as far as South Korea, right?

One hopes. So far his ballistic missiles have failed in tests but Japan is rightfully worried.

But we've got big promises to keep with Japan and South Korea. We said we'd defend them.

What if these two continue to work together?
"In recent years, Iranians developed multi-stage Shahab-4(now apparently shelved), and reportedly also Shahab-5 and Shahab-6, which are said to be derivations of North Korean Taepodong. Iranian engineers participated in the North Korean Taepodong-2 missile launch on July 4, 2006.[citation needed]
Since the end of the war, Iran has consistently attempted to recruit foreign help, as well as its large and highly qualified expatriate population, into its missile program. Iranian expatriates who left with the revolution have been slow to return, but many are now doing so and thus heralding a new age for Iran's missile development programme with their tremendous wealth of technical experience.[citation needed]:"
