N Korea furious at South's Christmas lights plan

[Jimbuna]

What are they worried of?.....their own people realising it is possible to be happy and in a celebratory mood? :o


North Korea has warned South Korea of "unexpected consequences" if it lights up a Christmas tree-shaped tower near their tense border.
The North's state-run Uriminjokkiri website said it would amount to a form of "psychological warfare".

Happiness in communism, thats a contradiction in terms!
Maybe they are just scared how they should explain their own Energy shortage in front of a illuminated Border. ;)

Good point :salute:

[Torplexed]

"Psychological warfare?" Not surprising from a nation that probably regards a crow crossing the border as an "aerial incursion". :nope:

Deep down they're probably just angry that Santa ignores that big black spot on the map called North Korea every year. :O:

Maybe the North Koreans are not used to seeing illumination at night. It is foreign to them, and therefore, hostile.


So I say...

Do something Shortstack Jong Il..


I dare you...

The scary thing is that they just might and another conflict could be sparked by something so insignificant as Christmas lights :nope:

Would´t North Korea benefit from one of those 1970´s hippie peace movement?

[Platapus]

I think as a matter of form, North Korea objects to any thing new near the DMZ. It is what they do. :yep:

It is not like his people can even see it. I am surprised it is even getting any press. Must have been a slow news day.
