Missed? Iranian Advisers Helped North Koreans With Missile Launch

Dated from March 30, but I don't remember seeing it. Old but somehow new?

A group of Iranian missile experts is in North Korea to help Pyongyang prepare for a missile launch intended to challenge US President Barack Obama as he attends the G20 summit in London.

North Korea has said it will launch a communications satellite over northern Japan between Saturday and the following Wednesday, and Japanese media reports yesterday said a 15-strong Iranian delegation had been in the country since the beginning of this month.

The Iranian party includes senior officials with Iranian rocket and satellite producer Shahid Hemmat Industrial Group, the reports said.

The Iranians brought a letter from President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad to North Korean leader Kim Jong-Il stressing the importance of co-operating on space technology.

And how is Obama's tough, smart diplomacy doing with the Mullahs? Awesome, thanks for asking! Obama's not imposing preconditions on the mullahs but they're imposing preconditions on him: They want the idea that they'll suspend enrichment during the early phases of negotiations scrapped, before they even begin negotiating at all. And the O-Team is considering it, which means they've already decided to make the concession.

Thanks to Anti-Harkonen Freedom Fighter Geoff for the old-but-new tip.

And Even More Diplomacy: North Korea walks away from six party talks.

Gee, one would almost begin to suspect these people aren't interested in talking to come to any resolution, but simply talking and talking and talking as a stalling tactic.

1 Wow, it almost sounds like it's an... axis of evil, or something.

Wait.  Nah.  That's just jingoist rhetoric.  Never mind.

3 But weren't we told that the Shiite leaders of Iran would never cooperate militarily with infidels? I guess technically the North koreans are actually Juche-ists.

4 Liberal reasoning: Iran and North Korea are both isolated from the world community, so they have no real choice but to work together to ensure the futures of their people. It's all our fault you see- if we gave everyone aid, there would be no problems like this.

And by the way, if all countries had nuclear weapons, the world would be a safer place.

/yeah, I know it makes no sense.

7 and the NK's tossed teh IAEA today too.

Same thing Iran will do, just like the NK's, about a year after the "deal" obama cuts with the iranians.

sad, pathetic bullshit.

Following is a statement to the media by IAEA Spokesperson Marc Vidricaire on the situation in the DPRK:

"The Democratic People´s Republic of Korea (DPRK) has today informed IAEA inspectors in the Yongbyon facility that it is immediately ceasing all cooperation with the IAEA. It has requested the removal of all containment and surveillance equipment, following which, IAEA inspectors will no longer be provided access to the facility. The inspectors have also been asked to leave the DPRK at the earliest possible time.

The DPRK also informed the IAEA that it has decided to reactivate all facilities and go ahead with the reprocessing of spent fuel."

8 If only the mighty ONE would have the Hummus to shoot down the satellite. No civilian casualties, sends a message don't be shooting rockets over our allies, the Japanese, etc. etc.

9 Bah. All countries having nukes and us having none is the way to the perfect utopia!

10 Well, now we will see what the One is really going to do about serious threats.  My guess:  Nothing will happen until after Iran or North Korea nukes a US city, and maybe not even then.

Hmm. I seem to recall the MSM going ape-shit over a certain president who wouldn't do bilateral negotiations with the Norks over the nukes and that the Norks were right not  to want the multilateral negotiations. I wonder how the MSM is going to handle whether O goes bi or multi?

13 Depends on which site you tend to visit...we discussed the Twelvers hanging out in Mordor several days back at the Belmont Club [PJM™].

Besides, is anybody surprised by this news???  Other than Dear Leaders' DCI...

Who knows, maybe the DoS will send forth two stern letters of disapproval...that'll show 'em.

15 North Korea, Iran, China, Russia, Venezuela ... God only knows who else - are all conspiring to do a "Goon Rush" on the West I think.

I think we will wake up one morning and find Iran at war with Israel (possible nuke); Nork's moving into S. Korea (possible nuke); China moving to Taiwan, and Russia moving into all the former satellites.

I'd do if I were them.  I don't think the West has the NADS to stop them.  At the very least these nations would post HUGE gains for an initial push and would prolly be allowed to keep them if they "promised" not to push anymore.

We'll see.

Not a surprise that Iran is involved in Nork's Nukes.

16 I'm sorry, Israel.

Posted by: Ginger. I'm not really here at April 14, 2009 05:06 PM (yFFcb)

I share that sentiment too but remember these guy's will take action and they are not defenseless.  They will take the appropriate actions when the time is right and have come right out and said so.  Good observastion though, these advisers (read cash paying customers) where there to put in an order based on the out come of the satellite launch.

17 Here's a vicious scenerio...

NorK gets contracted to launch on Israel by Iran.
