[COSTA]

North Korea shipped that military equipment to Berbera port

WASHINGTON: Three months after the United States successfully pressed the United Nations to impose strict sanctions on North Korea because of that country's nuclear test, officials in the Bush administration allowed Ethiopia to complete a secret arms purchase from Pyongyang in what appears to be a violation of the restrictions, according to senior U.S. officials.

The United States allowed the arms delivery to go through in January in part because Ethiopian troops were in the midst of a military offensive against Islamic militias inside Somalia, a campaign that aided the U.S. policy of combating religious extremists in the Horn of Africa.

Why North Korea? Why not CHICOM industries??? Something seems off kilter here. But if it's true, the adminstration will take a pounding for it, as well it should
