| U.S. says N.Korea's test was nuclear Flashback: Neo-Cons Spin Dud Test To Hide Nuclear Hypocrisy The U.S. government said on Monday that the test conducted by North Korea on October 9 was a nuclear explosion of less than one kiloton. "Analysis of air samples collected on October 11, 2006, detected radioactive debris which confirms that North Korea conducted an underground nuclear explosion," the director of national intelligence said in a statement. The statement said the explosion yield was less than a kiloton. By comparison, the nuclear bomb the United States dropped on Hiroshima, Japan, in 1945 was about 12.5 kilotons. The announcement last week by the reclusive communist state that it had tested a nuclear bomb sharply escalated world concerns over North Korea's nuclear program.
