From what I read we do not have the location of the nuclear warhead (which could be anywhere by now), or the nuclear reserach lab. The inteligence that you maybe talking about was just the purchasing material for use in a gas centrifuge program, not that they knew where the nuclear lab was. If you have a link otherwise, thanks.

you hit the nail on the head. the current NK problem is a direct result of NK equating the US with Carter. Bin Laden
equated the US with the Clinton administration and assumed we were weak and unlikely to vigorously respond. how many prior attacks went with little or no response? bush speaks straight and strong like reagan. the real danger is having nut cases believe they can take us or that the left will criticize us into inaction and self blame. this isn't about tooting our own horn or world domination or bullying, its about prevention,
self-defense and loudly letting the criminals and terrorists know how the game is played and that their misconduct will have serious consequences. sorry if some construe this as politics but look how it affects our markets and economies. it
certainly has a bearing on our trading and investment decisions. do we have to be hit hard again before some will wake up? no offense intended to any here.
