...and they wouldn't do this if we didn't feed them? Have any proof that they would do things differently or are you just whining randomly?

Nobody is feeding North Korea. They are feeding the PEOPLE of North Korea, the ones suffering under the rule of those tyrants. The ones being fed by international efforts are not the ones building nukes and missiles.

You like to accuse people of "whining" a lot don't you??

It's called a "concession"....and then returned with a slap in the face.

Anybody who knows which hole they pee from knows they would be testing missiles regardless....

Now, do you care to whine about other people whining anymore?

You're right... Which is also the point of my post. Why stick our nose in other peoples business AGAIN??

Especially a totally hostile nation!!

Secondly, it is the perception Americans have that "North Koreans are starving"...Fact is, not one of us know. They are a totally secluded country.

Thirdly, playing Devil's Advocate, even if they are as impoverished as reported.....us sending food is about as antagonist as a sanction...all it does is **** them off even more.

LEAVE THEM ALONE!

Should we really care if North Koreans are starving when we have problems of our to to take care of here? And since we did make the offer, and this is the result, I'd take all such offers off the table in the future. No food, not a grain of rice or a bread crumb to them at any future time.

LOL. Just like all the other dictators and tyrants we send "aid" too. It all ends up in their hands and then if they decide to feed the people they do so. Wake up.

There are videos of people cachectic people, including children, eating bugs off the ground. That's how desperate these people are. When we've sent food in the past, vast amounts of it were diverted to the military.

You sound like someone with a full belly.
