How true. look kim eel woo or whatever his name is might be nuts. but i must admit i dig the shades! he is a former film student so i think he gets most of his world view from Bond James Bond! Ehe north koreans have a contract with china so they are untouchable until china sells them out. poor bastards. a Canadian friend actually went to pyongyang with some weird commie youth program when he was a teen. the poor lad grew up in a commie family the term he would use is red diaper baby. anyway. The pictures he showed the ones he was allowed to take of the places he was allowed to go with the people he was allowed to speak with eating the food he was allowed to eat going to the washroom in the ones he was allowed to relieve himself in etc etc...,was more horrifying then the last terminator film. The entire place seems to be gray or dirty white with no color and the only pictures or adds of any kind are for the leader in shades or the party. the entire place. i must admit advertising does annoy me but id rather take stupid adds trying to brain wash me to by some coke then a fat basketcase in shades. yikes.

I'm glad a couple folks brought up N. Korea, that guys is nuts. I don't want to hijack this thread though, but that test Kim did over the weekend was a) a surprise and b) quite a bit bigger than the last. Boy, I bet we wish we didn't invade Iraq and Afghanistan now, we'll likely end up going to 'real' war with N. Korea and need all those forces. Oops!  Where's the fun in fighting people capable of defending themselves... They could defend themselves - they did against the Russians for years. Anyhow, we won't go to war against N. Korea. Obama will do just as Clinton did: send them a big fat check which they will invest in more weapons research, and they'll be quiet for a few years playing with their new toys. Anyhow, no point in the U.S. going to war while their missiles can't reach the U.S.

or they'll have some more plates made, so that they can print some more phony(er) US dollars.

There was a documentary on TV where, via hidden camera, they showed inside N. Korea. People dying in the streets from starvation, prison camps like WWII Nazi Germany, etc. I bet they didn't let your Canadian friend see any of this.

We need to pray for the conversion of North Korea as well.

"And we, too, being called by His will in Christ Jesus, are not justified by ourselves, nor by our own wisdom, or understanding, or godliness, or works which we have wrought in holiness of heart; but by that faith through which, from the beginning, Almighty God has justified all men; to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen." — Clement, bishop of Rome
"I love truth," says he, "and not sects. I am sometimes a peripatetic, a stoic, or an academician, and often none of them; but—always a Christian. To philosophise is to love wisdom; and the true wisdom is Jesus Christ. Let us read the historians, the poets, and the philosophers; but let us have in our hearts the gospel of Jesus Christ, in which alone is perfect wisdom and perfect happiness." — Petrarch

Yes! They just launched another missile: N. Korea launches additional missile into East Sea: official SEOUL, May 27 (Yonhap) -- North Korea launched an additional short-range missile from its east coast Tuesday night, an official at the South Korean presidential office said Wednesday. "The North appears to have launched a ground-to-ship missile into the East Sea shortly after 9 p.m. Tuesday," the official said, asking not to be identified. Pyongyang had launched two short-range missiles from its east coast earlier Tuesday, following its supposed nuclear test the day before. Officials here believe the missile launches are partly aimed at preventing South Korean and U.S. reconnaissance planes from nearing the communist state to verify its claimed nuclear test. Earlier reports said there were also signs of imminent missile launches on the North's west coast. The official at the presidential office said the North has yet to launch any missile from the west. from: http://english.yonhapnews.co.kr/national/2009/05/27/69/0301000000AEN20090527001300315F.HTML

North Korea's government is quite evil. They let the people starve while they launch missiles and thumb their noses at Japan.

They're communists. What else could we expect?

They're communists. What else could we expect? Distribution of wealth, for one.
