How the heck do you get a plant that has been down ten years,without any maintenance,started up that quickly.

I'm wondering if someone can explain to me what this means. Sorry to sound so ignorant. What do they do when they reopen one of these plants? I realize it has to do with nuclear weapons, but don't know the technical stuff.

If a refinery was to shut down for ten years,it would take several months before you get it back online,after several hundred people worked on it.

Take this stinking reactor out. It may cause some radioactive fallout towards Japan, but we can rest assured what is being produced in this reactor is destined for use on the American people.

You don't. Not unless you expected to be starting it up again.
They had plans on starting it up again.
They knew that they'd be starting it up again.
Meaning: They knew we'd be attacked and we'd trace some o fthe fault back to their door. They want to be able to threaten and bully back. (In their eyes.)

Maybe salted with a little cesium and iodine isotopes....

If by Cherobyl style reactor you mean it's main purpose is produce plutonium for N-bombs, yes, that is what it is. It won't generate much power.

The NKs will soon be in a position to take orders for nukes from al Qaeda, Hezbollah, Iraq, etc., etc.

This is like a game of chicken and the NKs just threw their steering wheel out the window.

Oh yes, Kim Jong Il, syphilitic pretender who could only defeat the south if they conveniently crossed the road while he was driving.

(Remember how he ran over a few women and children while driving his car back in the 80's? Kinda funny how the press suppressed it back then..)

They intended to do it all along.
They've been doing maintenance on it all this time, specifically to do this.

I'm willing to bet those fuel ods aren't in storage anymore, nor have they been for a long long time.
I bet the North Koreans have a total of eight nukes.
And since they do have the ability to produce and store Tritium and Deuterium, they can make more powerful nukes as well...
