North Korea Threatens to Build Another Atom Bomb
SEOUL, South Korea (AP) - North Korea said Tuesday it has reprocessed 8,000 spent nuclear fuel rods and extracted enough plutonium to bolster its atomic stockpile, raising the stakes in an apparent effort to push the U.S. into direct negotiations.
Reprocessing the spent fuel rods would give the regime enough weapons-grade plutonium for at least one more atomic bomb, experts say. Pyongyang is believed to have enough weaponized plutonium for half a dozen nuclear weapons.
The threat of an expanding North Korean nuclear arsenal comes a day after Pyongyang warned Washington it would beef up its nuclear stockpile if the U.S. refuses to hold bilateral talks.

We should just give Korea and Iran the nukes they seek, we have a few spare ones floating on a submarine that we could send right over. Once they get them we can call and ask them what it was like when it was 3000 degrees in the shade.
RightWing1970
Take away the nukes that israel has and I will agree with stopping Iran from obtaining them. They should be able to protect themselves from israel.
RightWing1970
I hope that they succeed. Maybe they can take care of our so called friends in the Middle East.
