| Syria is said to be sending engineers and scientists for training in missiles and weapons of mass destruction to such countries as Iran and North Korea. Western intelligence sources said North Korea could be training Syria in nuclear weapons development. The sources said Pyongyang's acknowledgement of nuclear weapons could mark the start of its export of nuclear weapons expertise. "We know that North Korea has offered Syria expertise and training in nuclear weapons development," an intelligence source said. "At this point, we don't know of any firm deal." Betcha we find out, though... On Oct. 16, North Korea and Syria signed a scientific and technological cooperation agreement that the sources said could be a cover for a nuclear weapons program. A Syrian government statement said the accord included cooperation in the fields of engineering, genetic engineering, energy, biology, solar energy and "other areas to be agreed on between the two sides." Syria seems to be working diligently to maintain its position as a member of the Axis of Just as Evil. |

| #1 Show me any evidence of NKor development in "the fields of engineering, genetic engineering, energy, biology, solar energy and other areas to be agreed on between the two sides." that don't involve missles or weapons of some sort. If there was any, the peons would be a little better off. |
