Currently, North Korea is estimated to
have enough plutonium to potentially
build half a dozen nuclear bombs.
However, technologically it is estimated
to be at least several years away from
being able to create a functional warhead,
which it has expressed a desire to do.
But the nation has received a boost from
Middle Eastern ally Iran -- another
member of the "Axis of Evil" and
persistent thorn in America's side . U.S.
intelligence tracked missile shipments
travelling from Iran to North Korea over
the last year; it is believed that much of
the missile was constructed in the
increasingly high-tech Middle Eastern
nation.
Iran has denied helping North Korea, but
according to intelligence officials Iranian
observers were spotted on the ground in
the Asian nation, taking notes on the
launch.
