U.S. speeds attack plans for North Korea
The Pentagon has stepped up contingency planning for attacks on North Korea's nuclear program that includes detailed planning on special operations commando raids or strikes with Tomahawk cruise missiles or other precision-guided weapons.
One option calls for teams of Navy SEALs or other special operations commandos to conduct covert raids on Yongbyon's plutonium-reprocessing facility to prevent further reprocessing of the spent fuel rods.
The other option is to use six Tomahawks on the reprocessing plant and to strike it from various sides to minimize any radioactive particles being carried away in the air.
