North Korea accuses US of seeking to invade |
2005-02-13 |
North Korea on Saturday said the United States was seeking to invade North Korea in order to turn the Korean peninsula into a springboard for its dominance in Asia. Rodong Sinmun, the official daily of the Stalinist country's ruling Korean Workers Party, also accused Washington of exploiting "human rights" issues in order to cover up its hegemonic agenda. The comments came two days after Pyongyang said it would no longer engage in multilateral talks aimed at resolving a stand-off over its nuclear programmes, declaring it had made atomic bombs to protect itself against a US attack. "It is an invariable ambition of the US to invade the DPRK (North Korea) and dominate Asia with the Korean Peninsula as a springboard and establish a global order of its domination," the daily said. "The US has gone arrogant enough to divide countries of the world into this or that category and pursue a hegemonistic and unilateral policy, styling itself the world 'leader'," it said. |

#5 It does have hegemonistic, though... that's gotta be worth a little something. âIt is an invariable ambition of the US to invade the DPRK (North Korea) and dominate Asia with the Korean Peninsula as a springboard and establish a global order of its domination, Nah... we just want to give the little guy noogies... that's all. |

#4 It was obviously written under the influence of cut White Slag. Disqualified, thus it gets no score. |

#3 I'd give it an 2 out of 10 except that it was filtered through Pakistan and is thus unreliable. It lost points for the "springboard to dominance" nonsense (though I can imagine a great cartoon) and by accusing Washington of exploiting âhuman rightsâ issues -- a position that seems to actually acknowledge that there are some. No songun, no juche -- but maybe the Pakis just didn't share those with us. At best a 2 in its current form. |

#2 It's a trick PD. North Korea is worth invading for the intrisic value of the holy mountain and the juche forests. Nork rocks are without equal and the gruel recipes are to die for. /Lucky |

#1 Invade NorKieLand? For what? Springboard? To where? ROFL! Who cares, Kimmie & Co? Your infinite LMS (Little Man Syndrome) is a hugely entertaining and futile tantrum, all spittle and helpless, pointless, powerless puffery - the proverbial tempest in a teacup. Stew, baby, stew. |
