Can we just bring up again how much the Ryugyong hotel does not look like something with actual rooms in it?

I dear say it almost looks like something designed by Elon Musk.

It certainly has the build quality we expect from Musk.

Sanctions aren't just used against countries the US is at war with, they use it on ideological enemies too. Venezuela, Cuba, Iran, etc. Don't give me any crap about the missile crisis either, the US had nukes in Turkey at the time. The whole deal with Iran is that they overthrew the western installed puppet and nationalized their oil industry.

I half suspect the UK would have faced sanctions if Jeremy Corbyn had won the last general election.

I agree that we should use sanctions more.

AFAIK there is one defector who lies as a matter of course. I forget her name but she, to no one's surprise, has lots of great things to say about ol' kimmy and how bad everything is outside of the DPRK.

You're not alone. Lots of Americans are fleeing to Korea.

«SecDef Austin: "One of our service members who was on a tour willfully and without authorization crossed the military demarcation line. We believe that he is in DPRK custody."»

quote:

U.S. officials told CBS News the soldier in question was Private 2nd Class Travis King, who had been released from military detention in South Korea and was being escorted out of the country for disciplinary reasons. After going through airport security to leave, he somehow returned and managed to join a border tour group before crossing into North Korea, the officials said.
...

A person who said they witnessed the event and was part of the same tour group told CBS News they had just visited one of the buildings at the site when "this man gives out a loud 'ha ha ha,' and just runs in between some buildings."

The witness said military personnel reacted within seconds to the man's actions, but at first, there was confusion.

"I thought it was a bad joke at first, but when he didn't come back, I realized it wasn't a joke, and then everybody reacted and things got crazy."
