Syria Admits Israel Hit a Nuclear Facility

It has been speculated that Israel hit a nuke plant under construction last month. Now, Syria is saying the same thing:

In its first admission by a state official, Syria’s ambassador to the UN confirmed that an air raid carried out by Israeli fighter jets deep in Syrian territory on September 6 was, indeed, an attack on a Syrian nuclear facility, Israel Radio reported Wednesday morning.

The Syrian envoy disclosed the nature of the target during a meeting of a UN committee where Israeli envoys were also present.

(Emphasis mine.)

I wonder how long before Israel comes out and says the same thing. Right now they are still keeping it mum. And what is North Korea’s part in this. Kim Jong Il said he was giving up his nuke program, but it seems he was just moving it to Syria.
