N.Korea 'helping Myanmar build nuclear plant': report

Sat Aug 1, 11:03 am ET

SYDNEY (AFP) – North Korea is helping Myanmar build a secret nuclear reactor and plutonium extraction plant to build an atomic bomb within five years, a report said on Saturday, citing the evidence of defectors.

The nuclear complex is hidden inside a mountain at Naung Laing, in Myanmar's north, and runs parallel to a civil reactor being built at another site by Russia, according to the Sydney Morning Herald.

The revelations come just weeks after US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton voiced concerns that Pyongyang was transferring weapons and nuclear technology to fellow pariah state Myanmar.

If hillary said she “had concerns” a few weeks ago, that meant that she already had been told about it but wasn’t telling us

I don't think so. Obama would allow nuke proliferation.

I really didn’t think a “/deep sarc” was needed at the end of my post, but apparently so.

Thanks. I saw it at the theater when it came out. Watched it on DVD later. I think I’ll go rent it again.
