Kim Jong Il doesn't look like he's starving. I do agree with you on one thing... it's not funny.

He is simply implying that the reasons for our country "doing something" in Iraq are all wrong and illegitimate (so far). In recent times the Iraqi people were (and are and will be) suffering due to American sanctions and American bombings.
So, I suppose we went to Iraq instead of NK due to "humanitarian" reasons to save the Iraqi people from ourselves.
Another reason was the imminent "threat". Nukes. Chemicals. So far these have been proved wrong by the quickness of the slaughter of the country and it's culture and the failure of the "weapons inspections."
Another reason was Iraq's danger to its neighbors. Right. Bullocks.
Yet the blokes in NK have forever been a threat to SK and Japan. NK has nukes. What in the bloody hell are the white house wankers doing anyway? Is the American cowboy afraid of an equal matching Korean army? Yes, and, well, there is no petrol there.
