Girl Bands to Assist in 'Psychological Warfare'
The Defense Ministry is apparently minded to use songs and music videos by manufactured girl bands such as Girls' Generation, Wonder Girls, After School, Kara and 4minute in so-called psychological warfare against North Korea.

An official in charge of psy ops at the Joint Chiefs of Staff said no decision has been made so far. "It will take months to set up the big screens to use in psychological warfare operations and a wide range of contents will be shown," the official said. "I don't know whether songs by girl groups will be included, but there is that chance since pop songs were used in the past." But he added the content of propaganda broadcasts will not be limited to girl bands.

The JCS official said he is unsure how effective the work of girl bands will be. But the revealing outfits worn by the performers and their provocative dances could have a considerable impact on North Korean soldiers.

Former leader praises Kim Jong Ill
Praise from Fidel Castro is quite sought after. After all, Cuba is awesome, and is far ahead of the US and Europe. So, is North Korea. Workers' Paradises. They're what we in the West can only aspire to. :sighsm:

Conspiracy theorists in the South have been saying the same thing. Can't completely rule out the possibility, I suppose, but still, :wacky:

Some in the South think that the torpedo was intended to explode nearby the Cheonan to give a scare. The current SK prez is in a bad way, politically speaking, right now. Could have been planning a distraction from his recent defeats in policy. He's a right-winger, a rabid xtian, and ditched the Sunshine Policy as soon as he got seated. :dono:

If it wasn't "true" before that rumor got started it's "true" now, because it's out there. :nono:
