    Default North Korea is such a joke

    http://www.cnn.com/2013/02/07/busine...html?hpt=hp_t3

    A bizarre three-and-a-half minute North Korean propaganda video -- depicting a city resembling New York but with its skyscrapers on fire -- was pulled from YouTube this week after videogame maker Activision said those scenes were lifted from its top-selling game "Call of Duty."

    Clicking on the now-defunct YouTube link brings up the message: "This video has been removed by the user. Sorry about that." But the video can still be found elsewhere on the internet.

    The anti-U.S. video also employs an instrumental version of Michael Jackson's "We Are the World" while a sleeping North Korean man apparently dreams himself aboard a North Korean space shuttle launched into orbit around the Earth.
    Do they still think it's the 1950s Cold War? National dreams of building nukes, rockets and space shuttles? They starve their people to death and the world laughs at their "achievements". It's sad that the people have to suffer because of one evil, pathetic little family.

    North Korea Celebrates As Kim Jong-Un Becomes First Man To Walk On Moon

    North Korean officials confirmed to the cheering multitudes that not only had the country soundly trumped and “obliterated the memory” of South Korea’s recent successful launch of a civilian rocket, but that the unprecedented moon-walking achievement was performed by none other than the supreme leader Kim Jong-un himself in yet another display of his substantial cleverness and strength.
    Link.

    Their state propaganda is essentially the Onion.

    Most North Koreans are truly suffering. Netflix has some really good documentaries showing just how terrible they have it. Even those who do escape into China are usually caught at the gate of South Korea's embassy, as seen on camera, by plainclothes North Korean government officials and dragged back to North Korea where they and their families are sent off to prison camps forever. To include those who are born in those camps. And China will not get involved even when the escapees are grabbed right in China. China fears a mass wave of North Koreans into their country if they allow koreans to seek asylum. Warning; some of these documents will make you angry.

    That is kind of like our Supreme leader recently showing his prowess with a shotgun. Pure propaganda BS.

    Why not? Our guys do; which is pretty much why on 9/11 the U.S. armed forces could not & would not defend the nation: bizzy waiting on pesky Ruskies.

    Expect N. Korea-US of A down-&-dirty love fest any time now; maybe the video game's already here: visit a virtual USA in "38th Parallel Universe."

    Don't ask difficult questions. The fumes of burning brain cells will make your head spin.
