The White House said Thursday that North Korea's secret work on a nuclear reactor with Syria was ''a dangerous and potentially destabilizing development for the world,'' raising doubts about Pyongyang's intention to carry through with a promised disclosure of its nuclear activities.


Seven months after Israel bombed the reactor, the White House broke its silence and said North Korea assisted Syria's secret nuclear program and that the destroyed facility was not intended for ''peaceful purposes.''

''The Syrian regime must come clean before the world regarding its illicit nuclear activities.'' White House press secretary Dana Perino said.

According to a US official the reactor was mere weeks away from becoming functional.

"The facility was mostly completed but still needed significant testing before it could be declared operational," the official said.



Once again Israel has saved the world.

Next chapter will be saving the world from Iran.
