[history]
WASHINGTON — After seven months of near-total secrecy, the White House is preparing to make public on Thursday video evidence of North Koreans working at a suspected Syrian nuclear reactor just before it was destroyed in an Israeli airstrike last September.

Well, there have been numerous comments that said that Israel's bombing has nothing to do with nuke facilities
built with the help of N. Koreans.
They always tried to spin away the suspicion that both Syria and N. Korea were caught red-handed working on their joint nuke project.
So much for the smoke. Covering up for N. Korea on this would not yield any cooperation from them. It is really stupid of them to try this approach.

Will the Demrats claim this a 'fake' or feign outrage for not being told? Maybe 'Michael Moore' will do his version of the truth here.
Will Obama offer, that 'when HE is President; he will invite Kim Jung Il to the White House to solve this delemma?
Will Hillary promise - that if given the chance - that she will just obliterate all involved?

"Making public the pictures is likely to inflame the North Koreans"
That sort of diplomatic spinelessness is right out of the libs' playbook.

Making public the pictures is likely to inflame the North Koreans, said one senior administration official who would not speak on the record because the White House and the State Department have declared there would be no public comment until the evidence is released. And thats just what opponents of this whole arrangement want, because they think the North Koreans will stalk off. Then STFU. What dem was briefed?

I understand Jimma Cartier laid a wreath at the site to commiserate with this Syrian friends.
To: TigerLikesRooster
And the left is now spinning furiously for Syria and North Korea. They've actually said it can't be evidence for an active nuclear program, because there wasn't any fuel there yet, when it was bombed. lol. There is nothing they won't stoop to, rather than admit that George W Bush is right about anything, ever. He could say "and the sun came up again this morning", and they would deny it and spin.

So far, they've said
(1) it wasn't an active nuclear weapons program because there wasn't any plutonium fuel in the reactor yet at the time it was bombed (if there were, they'd scream about environmental risks instead)
(2) then they've said there is "no evidence" of *continuing* nuclear cooperation between North Korea and Syrian *since* the bombing (meaning, they want more leaks about which of their games have been noticed) and
(3) that nothing more is or was needed because the North Koreans *agreed* to halt cooperation with Syria or anybody else (of course, they agreed to that while they were still doing it, aka cheating), and then
(4) that disclosing any of it "might" make the North Koreas walk out of talks or otherwise "embarass" them (nothing about how embarassed the Dems are to be supporting these clowns). Meanwhile the Syrians have instead claimed
(5) that any video evidence the US shows must be fake, because after all the US attacked Iraq, so you have to be "gullible" to believe *the US* (and your lying eyes) in such things, instead of the trustworthy Syrians and North Koreans.
I swear I've made none of that up, that is their actual party line spin. The left is beyond parody, they are obscene.

I wonder if Israel will take out the Convention Center in Denver this summer? What will be inside is just as threatening to their security as that reactor!

The terrorist allies should dust off that old phrase they used in the past and deny any "collaborative relationship" between the North Koreans and the Syrians.
Wonder if any North Koreans were actually caught in the video ?
