From the Toronto Sun:

"UN nuclear inspectors just caught close U.S. ally South Korea
enriching small amounts of plutonium and uranium to weapons grade.

This revelation comes when the Bush administration's neocon hawks are

clamouring for war against Iran over its unproven nuclear weapons
program. These are the same hawks who raised a hue and cry over
Iraq's non-existent weapons of mass destruction.

South Korea's six-year-old program was far ahead of Iran's;
various
deceptions were used to conceal it from UN inspectors. North Korea,
to no surprise, has been crowing over this embarrassing revelation,
claiming its nuclear program has been justified.

This is the second time South Korea has been found secretly working
on nuclear weapons. In the early 1970s, under the rule of strongman
Park Chung Hee, the CIA discovered a covert South Korean weapons
program. Washington forced Gen. Park to shut it down."
