Making jokes about this? Stay classy.
If this is indeed true, this is horrifying. Despicable that the government has allowed the situation to degrade to such a degree & clearly care nothing about it. What a horrid place to live.

"I have been assured by a very knowing American of my acquaintance in London, that a young healthy child well nursed is at a year old a most delicious, nourishing, and wholesome food, whether stewed, roasted, baked, or boiled; and I make no doubt that it will equally serve in a fricassee or a ragout."
- Jonathan Swift, A Modest Proposal (1729)

I don't buy this at all. NK is spreading the propoganda knowing the dummies in the US will moan and cry for their poor souls to get another shipment of food sent over. They do it all the time "rattling the sabres" so to say. I saw a story they are threatening to attack SK too. Oh no please don't here's some grain please play nice. Why does anybody believe anything that comes out of that sheethole of a country?

You kind of have to admire the new fat kid in charge. I mean with the whole country starving he brazenly walks around as an obese pig. That takes balls.
