Summary: North Korea was caught shipping weapons to Iran in December of last year. The weapons were taken by the UAE and were held for United Nations Security Council. There was no nuclear related material in the shipment but there were a bunch of weapons that have been seen very regularly seen being used by al queida and various other terrorist cells. The fact that North Korea is supporting one of the only other renegade nuclear producers who has been known to fund terrorists and wants to commit a jewish genocide is a fact that scares many people.
Reflection: After doing this research and realizing that all of this has been going on for my entire life I feel sorely misinformed. I always had the idea that the world was doing all right but now I see that it is very different. Living a life of ignorance was bliss but now I feel sort of short-changed. I almost feel lied to. With North Korea funding the other unstable nuclear country many people are getting kind of scared.
Evidence: In December of 2009 a plane was seized while refueling and 35 tons of weapons were discovered on board. The next stop on the plane's fight plan was Iran. The ship used to transport the weapons was Australian, controlled by some French and registered in the Bahamas and sources say that the shipment was approved by the Shanghai office of an Italian company. It is widely believed that North Korea makes millions of dollars by selling weapons to middle eastern countries.
Questions: Why is north korea sending weapons to/through Iran? Why did they use so many back-door sneaky ways of getting the plane and the cargo around?
