How so?Critics of the Bond film also say it goes too far in depicting communist North Korea as a menace to world peaceI make no bones about my moral support for [terrorist] organizations. - chegitz guevara

Take away the political death camps, starvation agriculture, reeducation facilities, retro economics, proliferation tendencies, paranoid militarism, and Kim Jong Il's love of Western satellite television, and he's a man of peace!I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891Comment

And the Brits have an Invisible car.... Krimeny.
Bond movies are so unreal no wonder the Koreans are whinning about it! Ya know, I though Bond was British and the whole scene took place in NK, so why the anger from the SKs?Comment

I think the ones that were in danger of starving have already done so. It was a temporary condition caused by massive flooding two years in a row in the mid 90s. From what I understand, that's no longer the case now.Originally posted by DanS
I don't know how you could judge this, especially in the face of evidence that the NK regime isn't weak, even though a good portion of the population is in danger of starving.Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...Comment

LOL on the Bond issue.
The article sounds very Korean, the actor boycotting the role, etc."Wait a minute..this isn''t FAUX dive, it's just a DIVE!"

Oh? And your evidence is?Originally posted by Drake Tungsten
Just because the US attacks other countries willy-nilly doesn't mean other countries will do the same thing.
China is trying its best to regain its historical position as the regional hegemon in East Asia. All the countries who used to be a part of the Chinese sphere of influence (Korea, Mongolia, Vietnam, etc.) had better watch their backs.

At least we don't prop up nasty petty dictators and call them our buddies.

It's funny cuz it's true.
The difference is the US is still propping up nasty dictators.Originally posted by Drake Tungsten
China has propped up nasty dictators in the past, however. Have you forgetten about the Khmer Rouge? Pol Pot sure was a nice guy.

Oh? And your evidence is?
Most experts on Chinese foreign policy agree that China is attempting to return Asia to its historical status quo, with China as the regional hegemon. There have been a number of books and essays on the subject. The real question at this time is not whether or not this goal exists, but what methods China will use to pursue this goal.
I tried to find some links for you, but Foreign Affairs only offers a 500 word preview of the articles I wanted to cite. I could give you a suggested reading list, if you're interested.

At least the US isn't a nasty dictatorship. China can hardly take the moral high ground in this area.KH FOR OWNER!

Read your history book again, Tingkai. China was the one who supported the Khmer Rouge against the Vietnamese. America just looked the other way, since opposition to the Soviet-backed Vietnamese fit into our strategic plans.KH FOR OWNER!
