Well, we knew they had them, but now they've made it official by telling the world. And this part of their statement, the most ludicrous, pretty much sums it all up:

North Korea's "nuclear weapons will remain (a) nuclear deterrent for self-defense under any circumstances," the ministry said. It said Washington's alleged attempt to topple the North's regime "compels us to take a measure to bolster its nuclear weapons arsenal in order to protect the ideology, system, freedom and democracy chosen by its people."

Uh. Huh.

Anybody out there still want to cling to the idiotic stance that North Korea is a put-upon victim of Bush's hostile foreign policy?
