N.Korea Plans to Export Missiles to Iran

Reuters Tuesday, August 5, 2003; 11:37 PM

TOKYO (Reuters) - North Korea is in talks to export its Taepodong 2 long-range ballistic missile to Iran and to jointly develop nuclear warheads with Tehran, a Japanese newspaper reported on Wednesday.

The conservative Sankei Shimbun, quoting military sources familiar with North Korea, said that the communist state planned to export components and Iran would then assemble the Taepodongs at a factory near Tehran.

The paper, known for its hardline stance on Pyongyang, said North Korea would also send experts to provide Iran with assistance on missile technology and the two states -- both included in President Bush's "axis of evil" -- would jointly develop nuclear warheads.

They have been discussing the plans for about a year and are expected to reach an agreement in mid-October, the Sankei added.

Perhaps it has been too long since Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The insane North Koreans and their equally hateful and repressive friends in Iran need to fully understand what sort of demonic power they are clumsily attempting to control and threaten the rest of the world with. Tests and such are far too anaseptic and tidy to fully impress the almost unimaginable horror of these devices on the thick skulls who would use them. May they have an unfortunate 'accident' in their respective countries simultaneously...the fools.
