Condoleeza Rice has suggested that recent events in Iran and North Korea support President George Bush’s 2002 claim that those nations were part of an “axis of evil”.

The US Secretary of State made the claim yesterday after radio discussions on the North Korean nuclear test and the anti-Semitic remarks of Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.
