KIEV (Reuters) - Ukraine said on Friday cruise missiles capable of carrying nuclear warheads had been "smuggled" out of the country to Iran, but denied a report they had been exported with official sanction.
The country's new liberal government, swept to power in January on pledges to stamp out high-level corruption and forge closer ties with the West, said it would tighten controls on the export of technology with military use.

Britain's Financial Times newspaper quoted Ukraine's prosecutor general on Friday as saying Kiev authorities had sold missiles to Iran and China.

The daily quoted prosecutor-general Svyatoslav Piskun as saying 18 X-55 cruise missiles, also known as Kh-55s or AS-15s, were exported in 2001, when former President Leonid Kuchma was in power. But none was exported with nuclear warheads.

The United States accuses Iran of trying to secretly develop nuclear weapons. Tehran denies the charge, saying its nuclear program is only for power generation.

The X-55 has a range of some 1,800 miles. Launched from Iran, it could reach Israel.

Israel needs to bomb the crap out of Iran's nuclear facilities now, before it's too late.

But should the US bomb Ukraine for supporting terrorism...?

Gerald But should the US bomb Ukraine for supporting terrorism...

It is difficult to suggest, that Ukraine is supporting terrorism when they themselves informed the U.S. that the missiles were smuggled out.

Bombs don't do much good in persuading people to live in peace, but what to do? - Does Bush still think at least he did something? and that is better than nothing.

How many billions of dollars later, and how many people dead? - Both statistics George W Bush probably does not have a vague idea of exactly what his war on terrorism will cost, or what it has cost - the guy just is telling people no matter what the cost George is the only man who has the power to find out what exactly he is doing, and the person least likely to try to find out.

...thanks to Iraq, we can't seriously deal with North Korea or Iran anymore.

Can you say:

Cakewalk?
Quagmire?
Inability to think things through?
Boo-boo?
Tragic lack of planning?
Regrettable error?









Like everyone would REALLY believe this government anymore anyway....

[BillyBob]

Can you say:

Freedom?
Elections?
Blue Fingers?
Arrested Enemy Combatants?
Killed Terrorists?
Major changes in the Middle East?
No more 'Oil-for-Kofi'?
Imprisoned Former Despot?

[aikido7]

Wow--you're so right!!!
I am glad things are turning around for you!!!

Freedom IS on the march!







Hmmm. I wonder WHY North Korea and Iran want nuclear power anyway? What sense could THAT make?

One more cluster--in Asia or the Middle East--and things will start to spin out of control real, real fast. We're stretched thin as it is in Iraq. We cannot afford another war.

Billybob Major changes in the Middle East?

forget the bombs and the bullits, how many people died because they did not have safe drinking water - or no water whatsoever?

this was one of the major causes of death over there - and as you are saying - Major changes in the Middle East? Well same old same old - they still do not have safe drinking water, and they are not keeping track of the number of people dead or how they died.

Sort of like the good old U.S.of A - where they do not keep track of anyone who dies of poverty either.
