Yep I saw that news item, I'm still not convinced in the slightest that it's actually North Korea, simply because like with Iran the west is spoiling for a fight and looking for a legitimate excuse to invade them.

Every year they wage war against all west and in the end nothing happens.

It is only internal matter, no concrete action to be made

Perhaps it's just the perspective but the photo caption above looks as though the water is just about to reach the edge of the conning tower - I have in my mind the voice of the restaurant waiter on the right screaming to the crew below; "Don't panic, our great leader's beach ball head will keep us afloat!"
159.there is nothing wrong with immigration, that was never the issue... there is something wrong with ILLEGAL immigration.... that's the issue that the liberals don't want to discuss.... and so therefore they try to make it seem as if republicans are against immigration when they are against  ILLEGAL immigration... there is a bid difference....

North Korea threatens "merciless" response over Seth Rogen film

http://www.theguardian.com/world/2014/jun/25/north-korea-merciless-response-us-kim-jong-un-film

<< Country wants film about attempt to assassinate Kim Jong-un banned and says failure to stop its release will be "act of war". >>

I would love to see their response... They can't reach the US and even if they could they are not suicidal. Even at the peak of the cold war, when the USSR and the US had over a combined 50,000 nuclear weapons, no one dared attack knowing a first strike would not go without response.
Now we get this bed wetter who thinks his handful of nukes, which he can hardly deliver, are some kind of threat... The worst he could do is invade South Korea, or attack Japan, at which point his rule, and possibly the lives of most of his citizens, will come to a swift end.

Having seen the trailer, it hardly looks like blockbuster material... But now that DPRK has stepped in with free publicity, it might get some success after all.

I fully believe that Kim Jong-Un and his family have been a murderous catastrophe for the North Korean people, but it doesn't help that most of the attention it receives from the international community is made-up stories (the haircut, the flamethrower executions, feeding uncle to dogs etc.) that allow us to see the whole country as a slapstick, madcap bit of Bond villainy rather than the deliberate throttling of tens of millions of people.

I think that the media purposely makes it more 'exiting', after all, it's a good distraction from national problems.
Some stories are probably real, but both sides aren't showing what's really going on. Interestingly enough NK missles hit SK before, is  the SK radar / military technology not that advanced.. or is there another reason why they were not destroyed?

We all know NK is China's crazy uncle.  It gets out all the crazy talking points and threats through NK.  Rock and a hard place, China being the rock.  Things will continue status qou with Elmer Fudd until China changes it's mind.

Funny, they threatened the USA........

SETH ROGEN IS CANADIAN!


lol.. He threatened the producers of the movie, and not the actors. James Weaver is from the US, right? Also Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg are Jewish. Kim should threaten to destroy Israel as well.

that would make iran very happy.

This is awesome promotion, the movie is going to be a boxoffice winner for sure, heck, I might actually go to the cinema to see it. Smiley

A movie even the Great leader of North Korea saw and hated
I can actually see a good trailer being made for this.

"reckless US provocative insanity". (North Korea Bureau)
The Summer blockbuster of the year

Great Leader coming to the theater near you soon.

He probably would launch a few missiles to the sea. Or maybe try a new nuclear testing. Kim is not that dumb, Kim is the puppet of the party he will be killed if he don't follow them.

Wrong, Kim and his family are in control of his party, it's the Chinese who pull the strings, why do you think the Americans can't touch him?

Do you know why Little Kim killed his Uncle and his uncle supporters? It is because he is a Chinese stooge. Do you why America didn't conquer North Korea? Because they have a nuclear deterrent, It means South Korea's destruction. And the reward is very minimal because North Korea is very poor and don't have oil.

The cult of character assassination...

(Given they apparently thought the Onion's 'World's Sexiest Man' article was true, and pass off any fictions as truth that they see fit, perhaps they're actually worried about being bumped off in 90 minutes + credits, all for a laugh.)
