Hot Rumor: Israelis Seized Nuclear Material In Syrian Raid
Times Online:
Israeli commandos seized nuclear material of North Korean origin during a daring raid on a secret military site in Syria before Israel bombed it this month, according to informed sources in Washington and Jerusalem.
The attack was launched with American approval on September 6 after Washington was shown evidence the material was nuclear related, the well-placed sources say.
They confirmed that samples taken from Syria for testing had been identified as North Korean. This raised fears that Syria might have joined North Korea and Iran in seeking to acquire nuclear weapons.
Israeli special forces had been gathering intelligence for several months in Syria, according to Israeli sources. They located the nuclear material at a compound near Dayr az-Zwar in the north.
Evidence that North Korean personnel were at the site is said to have been shared with President George W Bush over the summer. A senior American source said the administration sought proof of nuclear-related activities before giving the attack its blessing.
Diplomats in North Korea and China believe a number of North Koreans were killed in the strike, based on reports reaching Asian governments about conversations between Chinese and North Korean officials.
Syrian officials flew to Pyongyang, the North Korean capital, last week, reinforcing the view that the two nations were coordinating their response.

Here it is.
Time for those that would doubt the danger posed by states like Syria, Iran and NK to wake up and see the threat.
September 23rd, 2007 at 12:00 pmYeah I read that. No one knows shit about it…and no one who does know is talking… Good….But it seems obvious that the IDF pulled off another stunner of an operation.
September 23rd, 2007 at 12:32 pmGet some….
you know why israel is so good? cuz their politicians know how to keep their mouths shut and let the military do their jobs. they don’t run around telling the world what we are doing, spilling secrets and shit. we should take some lessons from them. they recognize the threats, and then they do something about it.
Fuck yeah…!
September 23rd, 2007 at 1:05 pmThat’s why Syria hasn’t said anything about the actual incident.
September 23rd, 2007 at 6:32 pmThat’s why N korea said it was a grave provocation.
Good, now we will know what the nuclear fingerprint of the NK stuff is. They can’t cook one off somewhere as a dirty or full blown bomb without the rest of the civilized world knowing it came from them.
Fuck the Axis and their leftist buddies, this is a giant victory for good and peace. God bless those commandos and Isreal for pulling it off.
September 23rd, 2007 at 8:53 pmSyria, Iran, UAE, the Taliban, Al Quada time to get rid of all of them. Seeing as how we ae smack dab in the middle of WWIII we should try to get rid of as many bad guys as we can. We even have a few good allies in the area, Iraq and Isreal, the left likes to complain that the IA is not ready to take over their own country what about someone else’s?
