by xx
Articles about US/UK giving nukes to Axis of Evil
pp1111202nuke.gif
Today the media said that North Korea fired up its old nuke plant.

But US mass media will not tell the public about the New US Clinton/Bush funded Nuke plants in North Korea. Great example of the US controled mass media. So much for the Axis of Evil. Also below, the UK was selling Nuclear Bomb making material to Iran, but apperently that is not NEWS either.

US grants N Korea nuclear funds

The US Government has announced that it will release $95m to North Korea as part of an agreement to replace the Stalinist country's own nuclear programme, which the US suspected was being misused.
Under the 1994 Agreed Framework an international consortium is building two proliferation-proof nuclear reactors and providing fuel oil for North Korea while the reactors are being built.
"These reactors are like all reactors, They have the potential to make weapons. So you might end up supplying the worst nuclear violator with the means to acquire the very weapons we're trying to prevent it acquiring," Henry Sokolski told the Far Eastern Economic Review.

Clinton Deal Gave N. Korea 100-Nuke-Per-Year Capacity

Light water nuclear reactors provided to North Korea under a 1994 deal negotiated by the Clinton administration have the capacity to generate enough nuclear fuel to produce almost 100 nuclear bombs per year, a 1999 congressional study warned.
The report explained:

"If the 1994 Agreed Framework is implemented and two LWRs are eventually built and operated in North Korea, the reactors could produce close to 500 kilograms of plutonium in spent reactor fuel each year; enough for nearly 100 bombs annually if North Korea decides to break its obligations and reprocess the material."

U.S. Helps America-Hating North Korea Build Nukes
Thursday, Aug. 8, 2002
SEOUL, South Korea – A concrete-pouring ceremony Wednesday marked the beginning of a U.S.-led project to build two light-water nuclear reactors in North Korea.
The international consortium pledged eight years ago to build a nuclear power plant with two 1,000-megawatt light-water reactors for North Korea, supposedly in exchange for the county giving up its military nuclear program. The light-water reactors produce less weapons-grade nuclear material than other models, officials said.
The U.S. is aiding North Korea even though:
President Bush has called the communist dictatorship part of the terrorist-abetting "axis of evil," which also consists of Iraq and Iran

UK allows nuclear material sale to Iran

THE Government has allowed the export of key nuclear weapons-grade material to Iran despite the fact that the Islamic fundamentalist country is trying to develop its own atomic bomb.

The BBC revealed today that the Department of Trade and Industry allowed a quantity of the metal beryllium – a key component for the manufacture of nuclear weapons – to be sold to the Tehran regime despite a ban on the sale of arms to the country.

UK 'sells' bomb material to Iran

British officials have approved the export of key components needed to make nuclear weapons to Iran and other countries known to be developing such weapons.
An investigation by BBC Radio 4 programme File on Four will disclose that the Department of Trade and Industry allowed a quantity of the metal, Beryllium, to be sold to Iran last year.

That metal is needed to make nuclear bombs
