N Korea furious at South's Christmas lights plan
 
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. ;)

"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:
