North Korean Diplomacy Leaves Something to Be Desired
From North Korea's "unofficial spokesman," as he is known:
An apocalyptic Day After Tommorow-like scenario will unfold throughout the US, with the skyscrapers of major cities consumed in a sea of thermonuclear conflagration. The nuclear exchange will begin with retaliatory North Korean ICBMs detonating hydrogen bombs in outer space far above the US mainland, leaving most of the country powerless.
New York, Washington, Chicago, San Francisco and major cities should be torched by ICBMs streaking from North Korea with scores of nuclear power stations exploding, each spewing as much radioactive fallout as 150-180 H-bombs.
You know, North Korea, the rest of the world just can't be bothered reading this whole thing right now. Get it down to Twitter length and polish it up.

Re: North Korean Diplomacy Leaves Something to Be Desired
He didn't even call us pig dogs. What kind of Nork press release is that? I'll tell you what kind of press release that is. One dictated by Kim Jong-Il himself, scribbled down by a panicked staffer who didn't dare leave out a single thought lest it be one the Dear Leader was particularly fond of. The clue: Day After Tomorrow. Kim just watched it on DVD, as he is wont to do with bad movies. Hitler was similarly fond of late-night private screenings of drivel.
Still, the humble scribe could at least have called us pig dogs, for old times.

Why do we keep subsidizing their weapons program with food aid to their starving? Let them buy their own butter and skip the bullets lest they have no one left to fire them.
I spent two tours in Korea. These are genuine, foaming-at-the-mouth lunatics who have managed to build an increasingly more credible nuclear weapons program with whatever they could beg, borrow, or steal. It's easy enough to laugh at them now. They like that. They say "keep laughing." But they aren't a laughing matter.

That thing reads like a poor parody of Rob Long's hilarious parodies of the precocious and insecure Kim Jong-Un's Twitter feed.

What is it with North Korea? You woud think that, as human beings, they would aspire to make the world, and their corner of it, a better place rather than bringing the rest of the world down to their level of poverty and hopelessness; a true "crab pot mentality" that!

Re: North Korean Diplomacy Leaves Something to Be Desired
The sad truth about North Korea is that it morphed from a totalitarian state in to a full blown cult, and did so while remaining an actual, albeit vassal, state.
The Dear Leader employs the BITE model of mind control over his people. He controls their behavior, information, thoughts, and emotions.
Steven A. Hassan has been very helpful to my understanding of this phenomenon. He argues that the this is the very process by which suicide bombers are radicalized.
What at first glance comes off as odd, silly, or even crazy is in fact something much worse, something more dangerous and destructive both to those enslaved by it and to those the enslaved lash out at.

Re: North Korean Diplomacy Leaves Something to Be Desired
If you truly wish have trouble sleeping tonight consider this: North Korea appears to basing their foreign policy on a video game. How do you describe such leadership when even the word insane fails to convey how detached they are from any sort of reality.

Yep! I vote we let them starve. That way we can be passive and still punish them.
Personally I feel like we should hold China responsible for all of the DPRK craziness. After all they are the ones who have kept this deranged, one legged, hunchbacked, balding, regime from self imploding in their own incompetence for the last 60 years.

Genuine question: What does "hold China responsible" entail?

I prefer my dose of DPRK propaganda straight from the horse's mouth.
