You either have half the information or half the understanding. The deal with North Korea was for an energy supplying nuclear plant (since they have no oil, no gas, no coal, and no money). The plant was designed in the U.S. to not create any plutonium as a byproduct. In return the plutonium infused rods from the russian design reactor were put in closely monitored storage. The U.S. was to supply oil until the nuke plant was finished. Plutonium is a much more dangerous material than uranium. Uranium is difficult to separate into isotopes. Plutonium can be extracted in ultra pure form by simple chemical reactions. After Junior's axis of evil speech he cut the oil supplies leaving N.Korea with no energy alternative. In return they shut down the monitoring, reprocessed the rods, extracted the plutonium and built at least a half dozen nuclear bombs. One of them may be in a shipping container near you. TP
