#1 Read, THE NOKORS WANT MORE FOOD ETC.

At last check, CHINA doesn't want to give them any more food aid than at present, + also doesn't want to care for any NoKor Refugees that come over the border. SEEMINGLY BY DEFAULT, JONG-UN, LIKE LATE BIG DADDY JONG-IL BEFORE HIM, IS LEFT WID THE US-ALLIES + UNO TO FEED THE MASSES WHILE CHINA STEADILY INCREASES ITS INFLUENCE + CONTROL VEE THE SINO-DPRK FTAS.

#3 "Since the U.S. violated the Feb. 29 agreement with its undisguised hostile acts, we will no longer be bound to it," North Korea's Foreign Ministry said.

IOW: We're going to continue to do what we were already doing, and would have continued to do all along, just without all the smoke, mirrors, and pesky formalities. And bonus food aid.

#4 Nicely engineered to make it America to blame for forthcoming nuclear tests; could nork experience a national wide test malfunction?

#5 This isn't "nicely engineered" at all. This is nothing more than typical dictator, progressive bull$hit. Anything can be spun to put the blame on the US or West no matter what we do.

The only response is to grow a pair and say "OK, no soup for you" and then cut off any contacts. Don't try and teach a pig to dance.......

#6 for 70 years this one trick pony has been using the same "sea of fire" and "running dog Imperialist lackey" rhetoric to cajole things from the west, all the while running a gulag state that is akin to the Nazi's. Counterfiting, drug running, technology theft, kidnapping, and arms sales to Iran have kept the Kim's in luxury and fed their army, while millions have starved. The average NORK kid is 3-4 inches shorter that his cousin in the south, and often literally stupid as a result of malnutrition. And over and over, the US and its allies keep hoping that this time there will be cheese at the end of the same old tunnel. Stop talking to them, and every time one of their crappy freighters heads out of port, somehow it needs to sink. They will get the message. If they can't feed the army, poof, bye bye, and the two-fer would be if it forces the ChiCOMS to feed them.
