... HATE when that happens? All that money gone to waste, when it could have actually been used to feed North Koreans, millions of whom have fallen victim to recurrent famine. I note, however, for the record, that North Korea's new "beloved leader" is quite chubby. He's certainly not deprived of food. Would the same could be said for his starving populace. Sick, demented, depraved ... doesn't even begin to describe it. And the international community of nations is WAY to occupied with fictitional charges against Israel to care about the millions of North Koreans who die of starvation each year. That's the REALLY depraved part, and that is why the international community no longer carries any legitimacy. Especially the United Nations. Ban Ki Moon, where are you? Oh, wait! Silly question. He's South Korean. With a private agenda all his very own. Sick, sad, but there you have it.

Arn. ,   Sweden.   (04.13.12)
- If one has to Prioritize as in war, should now the Western powers feed the North Korean Population with Food, instead of the North-Korean Regime so, The Finance of North Korea goes to Arms aimed against the West, and the West should Feed this North Korean People, instead of letting the North - Korean State kolapse of Starvation? Every of The Former Communist States in Central Europe, Was in debts 10 - 20 Billion Dollars when Comunism fell in Central-Europe, Dollars which the Workers and Laborers in the West could have in Wages instead. Hmmm - ?. Arn.Sweden.

There are probably few worse ways to die than of starvation. Slow and lingering. No human being should suffer such a fate. Unfortunately, that is exactly how far too many people throughout the world die each year. To allow it to happen is extraordinarily cruel. That is why I derive such a sarcastic chuckle when I read or listen to people raving about a supposed "humanitarian" crisis in Gaza. Flotillas ... flytillas ... such nonsense. Sadly, the worst medical problem -- both in Gaza and in the West Bank -- facing the ersatz "Palestinians" today is -- you guessed it -- obesity! Even more sad is the fact that the plight of people who are TRULY starving to death is largely ignored, because it is much more fun to pillory Israel. Doesn't say much for these so-called "humanitarians," does it? Especially when their flotillas carry absolutely no humanitarian aid, and their flytillas are meant only to agitate and foment violence. There is no country in the world more experienced in turning desert and fallow land into a blooming garden than Israel. The countries where famine and infertile land is a genuine problem want nothing to do with Israel. What does THAT say about them?

12. probably the MOSSAD did it .... (as usual)
Ellen ,   Brazil   (04.13.12)
13. Bad fuel...
Dr D ,   Jerusalem   (04.13.12)
Instead of mixing to it Korean Jinseng extract , a couple of gallon of Viagra would have help to keep their missile up and running much much longer to an exhilarating high orbit......
14. Not a good sign for Iran....
Malone ,   Hfx   (04.13.12)
...If N Korea is advising them on nuclear missiles.
15. "There are probably few worse ways to die than of starvation
Robert ,   Australia   (04.14.12)
One of them would be what your people inflicted on the people of Viet Nam. I see you claim US affinity.
