They're Just Not That Into Her

The North Koreans have rather rudely rebuffed the Secretary of State's outreach on disarming North Korea of nuclear weapons:

North Korea has rejected US suggestions that a wide-ranging package of incentives could entice it to dismantle its nuclear arms, with officials launching an extraordinary verbal attack on Hillary Clinton, the US secretary of state, calling her “stupid” and “a funny lady”.


It's almost as if North Korea has no interest in disarming:

In recent days, the US has said it will pursue a ”two-track” approach to North Korea, explaining it will keenly pursue sanctions but will also liaise with its allies to secure enticement to be offered to the North if it agrees to scrap its nuclear work.

“The comprehensive package is nonsense,” said Ri Hung-sik, one of the relatively junior North Korean diplomats who are representing their country at the Asean Regional Forum conference in the Thai resort town of Phuket.

“The US is telling us to take off all of our clothes,” he said. “The most important thing for us is sovereignty. Sovereignty, security, namely life, should be guaranteed. How can we barter life with money?”


I think it is safe to say that the Pillsbury Nuke Boy and his evil minions have learned to love the bomb.

Talk and squeeze them until they die, I say.
