If there’s one thing scarier than a lunatic totalitarian state full of starving peasants and a huge army, it’s the same state with nukes.
The Amazing Karnak predicts a cruise missile attack on North Korean nuclear sites in the not-too-distant future. Which will generate some interesting new problems, but will hopefully put a few others to rest for a while.

One thing, to me and my family, makes this even scarier.
My sister is moving to South Korea (from California) in a matter of days. Oi. No amount of family arguement will change her conviction that everything is going to be alright.
(This is the same sister that was in Bali on the day of 9/11. “Don’t be worried,” she exclaimed, “nothing bad ever happens *here*…” Er, right. How is that again?)
She’s moving to be with her fiance, who is half Korean, half German. No, they are not married, why do you ask?
Say a prayer or two for the clueless, would you please?
Hokey smoke. That’s …
… well, I’ve heard of behavior that stupid. But it still, mercifully, comes as a surprise to me each time.
At least it’s for love. Not like the two kooky Coloradians who are enroute to Iraq as ‘peace missionaries’. THAT ought to prove interesting.
We need to bribe all the N Korean generals. How much could it cost, really? Cut a deal with the Thais or Vietnamese or Malaysians for a nice, warm coastal suburb and move the bastards in. Require the nukes and Kim Jong Il’s head as bona fides. A few million dollars goes a long way in some countries and the generals are used to a crappy climate, constant threat of arrest or assassination and one of the less celebrated of the world’s cuisines. The S Koreans and the Nipponese would probably be more than willing to kick in on the costs. Maybe even the Taiwanese. Maybe even the Chinese. Nuclear war in Asia can’t be good for business.
Half serious. Worth a shot.
Then the S Koreans, etc. can bury the north in rice.
I wish things could be simpler and be solve this way:
