QuoteNorth Korea warned Thursday it plans to conduct more long-range rocket launches and carry out a "high-level" nuclear test targeted at the United States in response to a U.N. Security Council resolution condemning its December rocket launch and expanding sanctions.

The National Defense Commission, North Korea's top military body, denounced Tuesday's U.N.  resolution to censure and sanction the regime for conducting missile activity that violates U.N. rules, according to a Reuters report.

The commission reaffirmed in its declaration that December's rocket launch was a peaceful bid to send a satellite into space, but also said the country's rocket launches have a military purpose: to strike and attack the United States.

"We do not hide that a variety of satellites and long-range rockets which will be launched by the DPRK one after another and a nuclear test of higher level which will be carried out by it in the upcoming all-out action, a new phase of the anti-U.S. struggle that has lasted century after century, will target against the U.S., the sworn enemy of the Korean people," the commission said, referring to North Korea by its official name, the Democratic People's Republic of Korea.

"Settling accounts with the U.S. needs to be done with force, not with words, as it regards jungle law as the rule of its survival," the commission added.

I want to make fun of them but that would be like making fun of a drunk starving guy with a loaded gun.

They must be running low on rice and cognac. They always put on this crazy Nork act when they need something.

They are quite good at playing that game.

We should cut off all foreign aid, let the communist ******** starve.

They should develop a smart bomb that will coat everyone in the DPRK, wearing a suit or a uniform, in a thick layer of sweet BBQ sauce and rice.  THAT should sort out their problems quickly enough.
Any time is a good time for pie.

The gateway is China. Nobody farts in Norkland without permission from Beijing.

The way to fix things it to flood the country with AK-47s and a bunch of 7.62.

They would learn a new game if the best players of that old one start shredding.

I suspect we're a bit better at it today. Problem is they can cause some problems until we shut down all the arty tubes in range of Seoul.

They can make a lot of trouble.  My Dad told me it was hard to kill those buggers.

My part of Vancouver is infested with Koreans.  I've lived in and worked in a lot of countries around the world.  The Republic of Korea is the only one where I really have to struggle to come up with anything positive to say about the place.  Some of the food was quite good.  That is all.
