North Korea, Iran trade missile technology: U.N.

12:38pm EDT

NEW YORK (Reuters) - North Korea and Iran appear to have been regularly exchanging ballistic missile technology in violation of U.N. sanctions, according to a confidential United Nations report obtained by Reuters on Saturday.

The report also said that the illicit technology transfers had "trans-shipment through a neighboring third country." That country was China, several diplomats told Reuters on condition of anonymity.

The report was submitted to the U.N. Security Council by a U.N. Panel of Experts, a group that monitors compliance with U.N. sanctions imposed on Pyongyang after it conducted two nuclear tests in 2006 and 2009.

The U.N. sanctions included a ban on trade in nuclear and missile technology with North Korea, as well as an arms embargo. The U.N. measures also banned trade with a number of North Korean firms and called for asset freezes and travel bans on a number of North Korean individuals.

Whenever I hear UN, El-Baradei's face pops up in my mind. Either man of mind-boggling stupidity or typical mediocre third world intellectual who thinks that practicing mindless Anti-Americanism is some sort of noble pursuit. I hope he is stoned to death in Cairo by Muslim Brotherhood.

El-Baradei is the most conscientious weapons inspector that money, hookers, booze and high living can buy.

Whenever I hitch hike and see a UN vehicle going past, I have a special sign that I show them. Only thing is, they never stop for it.

It's time to begin sharing our missile technology with Taiwan.....Heck. Just give them the missiles and listen for China's angry screams. Then tell 'em why.
