Err .... womanlier! (Probably because none of their Fulcrums are airworthy or even taxi-worthy while they can at least scrap one or two working J-5s out of their 107 museum pieces) | ||

One Kim to rule them all SEOUL (Reuters) - North Korea has ordered people who share the name of leader Kim Jong Un to change their names, South Korea's state-run KBS television reported on Wednesday. North Korea imposed similar bans on the use of the names of its two former leaders, Kim's father, Kim Jong Il, and grandfather, Kim Il Sung, as part of propaganda drives to build cults of personality around them.

Maybe that's exactly what it is. Just a gigantic experiment by world governments to see what happens with such a country if left alone. | ||

It just blows my mind. I'm almost insulted that nk thinks we are stupid enough to beleive any of the bullshit that they are constantly spewing. The whole world should come together and tell them to get it together | ||

The whole world should come together and tell them to get it together I'm pretty sure the whole world has "told" them to get it together for a good long while now. The problem is that telling them isn't enough, and actions will cost quite some lives, given NKs insanity. It's not a simple problem that can just be solved with some money or some soldiers. | ||

Korean Central News Agency calls for the U.S.A. to face a human rights trial for spreading the Ebola virus, using Africa as a bio-weapon testing ground North Korea is accusing the US of spreading the Ebola virus, claiming it has been “bent on the development of bio-weapons” in order to achieve world supremacy. [...] It also went on to claim that the AIDS pandemic was also created by the US. Source Now he thinks he's socially aware. Let's put it down to selective conscience. | ||

But ofcourse it's a little more complex than that haha. I do have to say, even though it's at the expense of the entire NK population, I do enjoy enjoy the news coming from this section, almost like some sort of satirical part of the world. Maybe I'm too cynical. I do hope North and South reunite at some point in the future though. The only question is howmany generations of Kim Jung's will they have to endure before that to happen? I'm calling it before 2100. And that's being very generous. | ||
