#1 Mmmmmm. Roentgen Soup. Glows in the dark. Easy to find during a power failure.

#2 This can never be solved by accelerating the arms buildup and preparations for overseas aggression under the pretext of "threat" from someone.
Why not? Isn't that the army-based, juche way? ;)
Ptah, we await your score on this one.....

#3 *holds up card* 3.0.

Mein Gott, they've reached down past their minor leagues and drew on the Peewees. No class, no style, no fire, no SEA of fire, no Kim, no Juche, and yes, they definitely have no bananas either.

#4 From reading the DPRK drivel over the last few weeks, it all seems to be going downhill, possibly because the last stash of white slag has been used up, and winter's coming. Pyongyang sounds more and more like a vacuum - big sucking sound as it all slides down into oblivion. Kim's really got the Japanese concerned, and we can expect to see the backlash soon - not just in deploying Pat3s but in a navy/army/air force buildup in Japan, and possibly changes to their constitution allowing them to have a larger "Self-Defense Force". I wouldn't rule out Japan sereptitiously building a nuke or two, and letting the information "leak", letting the North know that two can play at that game. Japan has too much to lose by NOT standing up to Kim.

As for the rant, a 3.0 is being generous. Sounds like a playground bully when a bigger kid stands up to him. Totally unacceptable diplospeak.
