quickly I don't think so. I think they have been building for several years. During that time, Chamberlain want-to-be's did their best efforts to dismiss uranium enrichment allegation as N. Korea's another big lie to scare the West or sinister smear campaign by neocons to push hard-line action against N. Korea.
They will now turn around and say, "Let's accept the reality and make the best out of this by cutting a deal with N. Korea." Circumstances change but the conclusion is always the same for these morons.

This is not just Obama's fault. Sunshine Condi and Chris "Kim Jong" Hill, come out and claim your prize along with despicable left-wing hack Selig Harrison and Bruce Cummings.
Besides, to all RNC hacks and Foggy Bottom shills, shame on you for covering up these Republican losers when I railed down on them. You once have my thread deleted because I came down harsh on Condi. She and you all can go to hell.

A long planned Hillary distraction to augment her credentials when she gets a sweet softball interview from adoring liberal Chris Wallace on FNS today.
NORKS doing more nukes-wow what a headline.

SK and Japan have some tough choices ahead.
To: Eric in the Ozarks
If SK and Japan wanted to—meaning if they couldn't count on America—they have the technological know how to build advanced nuclear weapons programs and nuclear warhead delivery systems to rival ours almost overnight.
And I believe they should-NOW!
Obama is no friend of any friend of America and our traditional Asian friends are not exempt.

Hecker, who is regularly given rare glimpses of the North's secretive nuclear program, acknowledged that it was not clear what North Korea stood to gain by showing him the formerly secret area. The same thing that Soviet Union gained by displaying nuclear weapons at the Mayday parade, or the Nazis gained by taking Lindbergh on tours of aircraft plants. In law, it's known as communicating a threat.

Rome wasn’t bui;lt in a day. Nor was N. Korea’s nuclear plant
This thing has been building for a while ,and has been ignored foe some reason better known to those who ignored it.
It spans several presidents IMO.

Not much new here. They started collecting parts in 2000 for a gas centrifuge uranium enrichment program because the Russians and Chinese cut them off from vital parts for their Plutonium program.
Here is the CIA report from November 19, 2002:
http://www.fas.org/nuke/guide/dprk/nuke/cia111902.html
Wehave seen an elevated parts procurement in the last two years, mainly by masking the identity of parts shipped through China. In 2007 and 2008 we discovered highly enriched uranium particles in aluminum tubes at Yongbyon when we inspected the destruction of the cooling towers there and the gutting of the machine shop.
Hardly a hidden facility, that's where the centrifuges are now, the old machine shop.
Here's a report from a month ago on the NK uranium enrichment program:
