This is probably a fairly accurate description of what it's like to live in North Korea..
http://www.reuters.com/article/worldNews/idUSTRE52F5VW20090316What else can the rest of the world do but allow North Korea to "Juche" itself into oblivion?
The government there is delusional.. The government there censors ALL media except for
that which it produces itself (state run news, television, papers, radio, etc).
Children are taught a grossly inaccurate version of history in the DPRK.
Somehow, even though they are starving and dwarfed due to malnutrition,
they are taught to believe they have it better than everyone else in the world......?

It's a sad situation there.... Hopefully they will just shrivel-up like a cold scrotile pouch(try that one auto censor word changer thingy!) and just vanish..
I had a friend who served right on the border in the late 80's and talked about being shot at as well as shooting back..
DPRK guys would taunt them in Engrish, firing guns into the air..
