That's "wherewithal(l)" I believe. One word for sure.
Second "l" may be superfluous....

" WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Fuel trucks have departed
the site where a North Korean missile sits on a launching
pad, indicating that a test might be near, two senior U.S.
State Department officials said Tuesday.

The removal of the fuel trucks and other auxiliary equipment
means the North Koreans may have finished fueling the
missile, said the officials, who did not want to be named
because of the sensitivity of the information.

Should the North Koreans have completed the fueling "all
they would need to do now is press the button," one of
the sources said.

Pentagon officials tell us China's government failed utterly to come
through on private pledges to the Bush administration to halt North
Korea's missile tests.
Worse, some officials say, it is likely Beijing deceived the United
States about its efforts to dissuade North Korea from the apparent
tests and that China may have tacitly backed the seven missile launches
earlier this week.
"This demonstrates how impotent the Chinese are and the incredibly
low level of influence they have over their North Korean brethren," one
official told us.
