Oh fuck, I must read that.

Oh man...

Triple bonus score for invoking The Mouse That Roared.

I concur on this one hard. It's been my obsession for the last three days to find it and buy it.

It's on order now.

I got a copy used for less than $1...

As I suspected. The reporters crossed over an ill-defined border for less than a minute, went back onto Chinese soil, and were captured by troops who marched over said quasi-border into China to capture them.

I'm starting to suspect that these "hostile acts" the North asserts they committed might be nothing more than being foreign and within the proximity of starving guards looking to earn a bigger ration.

So, the moral of today's story is: IN THE NAME OF THE MAKER, DON'T EVEN GO NEAR NORTH KOREA, THOSE GUYS ARE CRAZY

Obviously the reporters keyed the NK troops' jeeps before they left.

Highly illuminative and detailed travelogue through NK.

While things are still embarssingly abysmal, it's nice to see the truism that the more extreme things get, the more they tend to collapse under the collective weight of their own absurdities.

Quote from: Time Magazine, dated 21 SEP 2009

HIGH WATER, RISING TENSIONS -- North Korea marked its 61st anniversary Sept. 9 by vowing to "mercilessly annihilate the US imperialists" in response to any aggression, just days after Pyongyang announced its continued pursuit of a uranium-enrichment program. The hermit state also opened a dam on the Imjin River without warning on Sept. 6, sending 40 million tons of water across the border into South Korea, where six people were swept away. Seoul has demanded an apology, calling the North's excuses for releasing the water "not acceptable."

They see me trollin', they hatin'...

This vice guide to North Korea

This is a pretty funky 20-min travel guide of what the place looks like.

EDIT: it's actually 60 minutes.

Actually it is split into 3 parts. It is an hour total.

This is required viewing for everybody, ever.

You know, after I watch a zombie movie, I get this feeling of relief like "Man, I'm glad the world isn't like that, and people are all thinking and feeling and behaving normally and I can interact with anyone."

I totally got that feeling after watching this.

Wait what? Vice magazine did something useful?

SCD · « **Reply #111 on:** October 18, 2009, 05:02:40 PM »

I really think that's the greatest concentration of publicly available video humint on the DPRK at this point. .

They did do something useful- good dog, here's your biscuit!

Someone fucking rescue The Tea Girl.

SCD · « **Reply #113 on:** October 18, 2009, 05:32:02 PM »

Honestly? I think the tea girl has the best gig in the whole country. They actually give her enough money to be fit and afford makeup!

If North Korea opened trade with the rest of the world, their primary export would be empty chairs.

What the fuck is the point of the Barrage? Did they build it for the express purpose of causing floods and famine?

Best part was the monuments filled with dynamite.

MICHEAL BAY

PRESENTS

THE DMZ

By RPGs launched by US Soldiers.

And then he does a tribute shot of the Iwo Jima flag.

Then the hill that they plant the flag on explodes.

One day, peaceful, enlightened aliens are going to land on accident in North Korea, and the results will be comedic

McDohl · « **Reply #119 on:** October 19, 2009, 11:01:38 AM »

at least until the peaceful, enlightened aliens decide that the human race is too sick to live and blasts us from the face of the galaxy.
