Most factories are closed and rusting for lack of power, and the only things lit at night in the North's drab cities are grandiose statues of Kim Il Sung.

This would keep toxins from being released into the atmosphere. Pentagon officials say another option would be to try to shut down Iraq's biological and chemical facilities as well as its missile...
