Very big difference between NK and the Arab riot states: in NK people have no access to media and internet and have no clue of the world beyond their borders.

One day, will probably change it but for the need for the internal forces that might "disturb" the system

The citizens of North Korea have no idea, what so ever, that this revolution in the Muslim world is happening. They believe that the famine and poverty that they experience is much worse everywhere else in the outside world, and that their government is doing a great job.

I read somewhere that totalitarian regimes like NK never actually crumble until they ease up on their subjects. Apparently there are minimum standards of living and education required for successful revolution.
