North Korea & Nukes
North Korea gathers kit for nuclear bombs
North Korea is working to restart a reactor that would produce enough plutonium to make 10 atomic bombs a year, a leading American nuclear scientist has revealed.
Siegfried Hecker, former director of the US government’s top secret Los Alamos laboratory, also said the North Koreans reprocessed 8,000 fuel rods to make up to 14kg (30lb) of plutonium last summer, despite taking part in six-party talks hosted by China to end their weapons programme.
“They have the plutonium,” he said. “We have to assume the North Koreans can and have made a few nuclear devices.”
I think we all know North Korea has been doing this – - I also believe North Korea has much more planned, especially now that they’ve ordered out all aid workers, charity workers and have ceased receipt of food from the United Nations.

The little Rats in North Korea have had nukes for years now, and the little rats will use nukes only if the “Chinese”, rats tell the rats to use nukes. come off it people we all know this game don’t we? but also remember who loves china so much, your business rats.
and also remember this is a game and will always be a game until people start to “see it for what it is”.

well, many people think the same of GW Bush. They had an election, probably a higher turnout than the one you had. Have they attcked anyone recently or historically ?(answer: no) They exist in a region where everyone has nukes.

Yeah, paul, vote for Kim Mentally Ill or else. It was a real open election, paul.
Paul, you go beyond moral relativism into loony tunes land.
The Norks hold free elections? That’s the biggest joke since Clinton said, “I did not have sex with that woman, Monica Lewinsky.”

No Canada jokes. If you want to attack anyone, go for the most under protected ethnic minority on Earth: Australians.
Kim should not have Uranium to “Protect his people” unless he can prove he can actually feed them. What a dirty Australian.

Kim Jong Il is bucking to be on the down range end of a sniper rifle. Quite possibly from his own military.

I’d settle for Kim going on vacation in his countryside to live like his subjects. He’d be dead in a week.
