little less willing to follow our lead but we're going to know in the next 60 days or so. >> we mentioned the launch of the four missiles. north korea is known to have enough material for more than 20 nuclear weapons. how concerned should we be about their progress? >> i would put that right up there. they have enough plutonium for 20 weapons. what we're seeing in the last few days in terms of the last few missiles is solid fuel, manning they can stand them up and shoot them off before we can really target them so this is a real concern as they moved forward. >> that's a very important it manse with solid fuel, they can quickly launch them, which means it's more difficult for the united states to launch a preemptive strike. >>
8:06 am
they can stand them up in the wood somewhere and from launchers. >> so most importantly, does the u.s. military have the capability, the intelligence for a preemptive strike? would we do it? >> we certainly have the capability. the problem is some 20 million south koreans are in the northern part of south korea within range of 14,000 artillery tubes. we have state are the art counterbattle fire. as soon as one of these artillery tubes appears, you can hit it kickly but you can't hit it until it's fired off a shell so you're looking at the distinct possibility in the event of a war of a lot of civilian casualties. so people shouldn't talk easily about war -- >> even a preemptive strike. >> even a preemptive strike. it's a very small place. it's an option to be sure. it should not be taken off the table. >> if he's putting a nuclear

8:08 am
unprecedented. >> i would rethink it if i -- some of the press corps is very experienced and they know the issues. it's typically not an adversarial relationship, they work very well with the secretary of state, from kissinger to whoever. is it because the secretary of state doesn't have enough running room from the white house? is it because he doesn't have his team sort of named and put into place? or is he just sort of someone who doesn't like to talk to the press? and if it's that, i think we have a problem. >> ambassador hill, we hope you'll come back to the table. >> yes, we do. >> a dramatic break through on the hunt for a man in a crime against an 8-year-old girl. in preview for tomorrow's "48 hours," how
