North Koreans caught illegally fishing in German waters...
 
Quote:

Berlin newspapers are reporting that the North Korean ambassador to Germany did a bit of fishing on Sunday -- albeit without a license.

...

Fishing without a license is a crime in Germany punishable with up to two years in prison or a fine.

Didn't know North Korea was that short of food! :haha:

As it happens, the North Korean embassy in Berlin appears to have a special affinity with nature. On Thursday, the official North Korean news agency reported a "natural wonder" that occurred at the embassy in Berlin on Dec. 20, the day after the news of the death of leader Kim Jong-il was announced. A small songbird spent an hour at the entrance to the embassy, apparently paying tribute to the late Kim. "It seemed that upon hearing the sad news of the demise of the outstanding great man, the bird flew to the mourning station to express condolences and flew away after standing vigil," the news agency reported on its English site.

Upon the death of Kim Jong Il, 300 million Americans cried. (with laughter, Steven Colbert said something funny.)

They then all had a barbeque, drank Budweiser and laughed.

Kim is a hot girls name.

:har: this story is bizarre on so many levels.

You Americans should also establish an embassy of NK on your soil - endless fun!

Despite years of being an evil dictator reports show that the former leader of North Korea is drinking and happy up in heaven, as the song says

Kim Jong merrily on high

First image on my mind was that of a Northkorean trawler offcoast Helgoland.

Diplomatic staff of foreign embassies is said to abuse their immunity status quite often in Berlin, insiders say. Mostly, traffic offences, from jumping red traffic-lights over exceeding speed limits to parking where parking is not permitted. But also little rumbles anf fights in Berlin nightlife.

Imo immunity status should also apply to diplomatic activities, not covering offences of everyday regular laws. You stay in a foreign country, you follow its rules and laws. If you don't like it, stay away, or ask your government for another post in another country.
