Mike Adams.
You know, it's like 700,000 people have been killed by SSRI drugs alone since the year 2000.
It's unreal.
The Health Ranger Report.
The drug industry has declared war on humanity, and the prostitutes in Washington are just going right along with it.
They don't give a damn.
It's time for the Health Ranger Report.
And now, from naturalnews.com, here's Mike Adams.
With news breaking now that North Korea has missiles that can strike New York City, Boston, Los Angeles, Denver, Chicago, and other major U.S. cities, there are three crucial things that you need to know about North Korea and its missile capabilities that aren't being really talked about in the mainstream media.
There's a lot of misconceptions about this, and I want to help you be crystal clear about what's going on.
Number one.
It's claimed that his missiles are failing and falling into the Sea of Japan.
This is nonsense.
Gosh.
The North Korean army, if you will, or whoever's launching these things, Kim Jong-un, they are launching the missiles almost straight up on purpose and having them fall into the Sea of Japan.
This is not an accident.
You see, the key with these missiles is to achieve an altitude that would allow it, if they change the trajectory vector, then to orbit the planet, you know, or semi-orbit the planet and hit, you know, Boston, let's say.
Now the altitude, if I remember correctly, the altitude that has been achieved is about 1300 kilometers so far, which is huge!
That means it's high enough, and given the velocity and that altitude, it means that those missiles, once they're redirected, they can hit almost maybe half of the cities in the United States, including Denver, Salt Lake City, Chicago, Detroit, Seattle, Portland, San Francisco, I mean, Phoenix, lots of them.
So that's the first piece of disinformation that people are being given.
They think that...
That the missiles are failing and falling into the Sea of Japan.
No, they're just being sent on a trajectory, almost straight up, and then they come back straight down.
This is all part of the testing.
All of these missiles have guidance systems.
So the guidance systems right now are simply being told to go straight up.
But obviously they can be changed to say, go strike Seattle or whatever, whatever Kim Jong-un wants to do.
So that's the first piece of information you need to know.
They have the capability to strike U.S. cities right now.
Secondly, we are told that the U.S. has missile defense systems, that we can strike an incoming missile and take it out.
Well, first of all, the Patriot missiles, which were used to take out some Scud missiles back in the first Gulf War, they had an accuracy of like 5% or something.
I mean, it was horrible.
Now, hopefully systems are better since then, and because all this is classified, there's no way for us civilians to know exactly what our capabilities are.
But let's say, let's say that we have a kick-ass missile battery array, or an anti-ICBM missile system, and let's say that it's on the ground in Alaska, Which is where the missiles come over from North Korea.
You know, they fly over the North Pole.
They come in through Alaska.
They track down over Washington State.
You know, and they come in from the Northwest.
That's their approach vector.
That's the shortest route to North Korea.
Now, let's say that we have these highly effective anti-missile systems sitting on the ground in Seattle.
Which we don't, by the way.
But let's say we did.
Or Alaska.
Let's say we did.
Can they reach an altitude of 1,300 kilometers?
I don't think so.
And secondly, even if they work, once they hit the incoming ICBM, what's the result?
Well, they spread highly radioactive nuclear fuel all over the ground.
So if you've got a missile, if you're living in Seattle, let's say, and you've got an ICBM from North Korea coming in, you know, a special present from Kim Jong-un, A little load of plutonium and uranium or whatever else they're using.
And it's coming in.
And you launch missiles to take it out and you intercept that incoming ICBM at, let's say, 200 miles altitude or 500 miles altitude or whatever.
All that does is it causes that missile, I mean, yeah, the missile doesn't detonate the nuke, but the nuclear material still falls on your city.
Now, all of a sudden, you have almost like a dirty bomb effect.
Yeah, you didn't get the big nuke, thank God.
You know, your city hasn't been obliterated, but now you've got a dirty bomb, essentially.
You've got nuclear fuel, highly radioactive fuel, spread all over the city.
Because, obviously, if you blow it up with a missile as it's coming in, it will tend to break apart, and it'll put little pieces of highly radioactive nuclear fuel all over your city.
So Seattle has to be evacuated, and it becomes uninhabitable for some period of time, while the anti-nuclear weapons teams go in there and try to find all the little bits and pieces, pieces of radioactive dust, which I don't even think you can find them all, and you try to clean up the city and make it habitable again.
That alone would be a devastating economic impact right there, and that didn't even detonate the weapon.
So that's something to think about, too.
You know, I see people on the news casually talking about, oh, America has an anti-ICBM missile defense system.
Yeah, but what happens when you blow up those incoming missiles?
They pollute your cities anyway.
So you see, Kim Jong-un doesn't even have to detonate a nuke to have, essentially, a successful strike in his mind.
All he's got to do is get one on a trajectory, and even if it's taken out, he still wins.
All right, the third piece of information you need to know, it's all about the miniaturization of nuclear weapons.
There's been a lot of talk in the mainstream media, which is, of course, full of totally clueless, incompetent, illiterate journalists who don't know anything about science, right?
And they say, oh, miniaturization is really, really hard.
No, it isn't.
Are you kidding me?
Miniaturization is easy.
It's incredibly easy.
In fact, any nation that already has nuclear capabilities, that's the hard part.
Getting nuclear fuel and building the system with the kinetic charges around the separated nuclear elements that then are compressed through conventional explosive charges in order to reach the critical mass and so on.
That's the hard part.
I mean, that was the Manhattan Project back in the 40s in the United States, right?
That took geniuses to figure that out for the first time.
And it's still hard.
It's hard to make nuclear weapons.
Thank goodness.
However, making them smaller is easy.
There's no doubt that Kim Jong-un has already, well, his military, has already achieved the necessary miniaturization to put it on an ICBM. Because look, ICBM cones are not that small anyway.
It's like the size of a bus.
Can you fit a nuclear weapon onto a bus if you already have nukes?
The answer is yeah.
It's not that difficult.
All these people out there talking about Oh, maybe it'll take them 10 years to miniaturize it.
No, it won't.
It'll take them 10 minutes.
I mean, it's easy.
It's probably already done.
I don't know why we're being lied to about all of this.
I mean, nuclear weapons, again, it's technology from the 1940s.
You think North Korea hasn't figured out how to make it fit in a bus-sized ICBM cone?
Of course they have.
It's not complicated.
That stage of it is not complicated.
Especially if you don't care about safety and quality control.
I mean, how many rocket scientists over in North Korea have probably died from radiation poisoning?
Because the North Korean government doesn't have OSHA. They don't have occupational hazard inspectors and auditors.
No, it's like Kim Jong-un just orders them in there to pick up the nuclear material with their bare hands and shove it in there, do whatever, and then they die of radiation two weeks later.
He doesn't care.
It's not like they're being careful about all this.
I mean, after all, they're not going to hold on to that nuclear material for very long.
They're going to put it on a rocket, launch it, get rid of it, dump it on Los Angeles or whatever their target is.
So it is much, it's easier than you think for a nation like North Korea to pull this off.
Washington, D.C. is just outside their range based on the current missile range, but New York City is in range, Los Angeles is in range, and even Boston is in range.
This also means, because it's coming in over the Northwest, that Denver is in range, Salt Lake City, Chicago, Detroit, Portland, San Francisco, Phoenix.
Lots, lots of cities.
Probably even Austin, Texas might be in range.
Who knows?
Lots of cities are in range.
So President Trump is flying stealth bombers.
Well, not stealth bombers.
Conventional bombers over North Korea right now.
Basically just to send a message that says, if you launch one of these in our direction, we're going to bomb the crap out of your capital.
Bomb your regime into oblivion.
That's the message.
Because there's really not much else that Trump can do.
The entire U.S. military, the Pentagon and everything, we don't have some magical nuclear deactivation technology given to us by aliens or whatever.
That doesn't exist in the hands of humans.
We can't stop it.
If he launches a missile, we can't stop it.
So, what are the options?
Well, you can threaten the guy.
But here's the thing.
What if he's not rational?
You see, game theory, if you go back into game theory, it only works when the two people playing the game, the strategy, are rational.
You know, mutually assured destruction, right?
MAD. Why does it work?
Because so far, the people who've had their fingers on the buttons of all the nukes in the world have been rational enough to not press the buttons.
But what if you have some irrational cult leader moron like Kim Jong-un, and all he wants to do is go down in history in a massive suicide cult attack on the United States.
He wants to take out one city, let's say.
Let's say he wants to take out New York City, knowing that his country will be obliterated and he will be killed, but he will go down in history and As the guy who took out New York City, is he mad enough to attempt something like that?
Maybe he is.
How do you know he's not?
I mean, he seems crazy.
How do you know he's not crazy enough to do that?
So, you can't count on game theory working here.
You can't count on the guy being rational.
He could be totally irrational.
He could be like the leader of that Applegate cult.
No, what was it called?
Heaven's Gate.
In California, the leader of that cult, his name was Applegate, and he had everybody, I don't remember exactly the details, but I thought they were wearing Nikes and drinking lemonade or something, and he said there was a mothership coming behind an asteroid.
I don't remember all the details.
It's too loony to keep track of.
What if Kim Jong-un is like that?
He's like, he's going to be the cult to take out New York City.
See, this is why I say We, the rest of the world, we have to go in there.
We've got to do something preemptively.
And I'm not a fan of preemptive military strikes in most cases.
I don't believe in occupying the world and having military bases all over the world and attacking everybody just to make the military-industrial complex more powerful.
But this might be an exception.
That is, assuming all of this is true.
Now, there is a very small chance, although I don't believe it's the case, but I've got to mention this for the record.
There is a small chance that we're all being lied to about this.
That maybe this is a narrative in order to justify an attack on North Korea.
Who knows?
I don't believe that's the case.
But it's a possibility.
The truth is, none of us ever saw the missiles launching.
We know the media lies to us all the time about everything else, so how do we know that they're even telling us the truth?
They say, oh, an ICBM launched out of North Korea and landed in the Sea of Japan.
How do we know that's even true?
I believe it happened, by the way.
I'm not saying it's not true.
I'm just saying...
You should always reserve the possibility of the big lie from the media, especially when it comes to issues like war justification and military funding and nuclear weapons and World War III and all that stuff.
So just keep in mind, this is not 100% trustworthy mainstream media scenarios that we're talking about.
It's something less than 100%.
In any case, I believe that North Korea has these missiles.
I believe they have the nukes.
I believe that they are launching them and that they have achieved these high altitudes, and I believe they do have the capability to strike cities in the United States.
And furthermore, I happen to believe that Kim Jong-un is crazy enough to go out in a blaze of glory, you know, in his mind.
He would sacrifice his life and his regime in order to strike New York City with a nuclear weapon.
I believe that he would take that bargain.
Well, suicide bargain.
It's sort of like the global thermonuclear equivalent of strapping a suicide vest on yourself, you know, and walking into an airport and pulling the cord or whatever they do.
But At a much larger scale, obviously.
If he's going to be like a suicide nation, there's really not that much we can do to stop him.
