You should move to Singapore! and bring your whole family with you too! Some cowards in Singapore are too afraid of me they had to lable me crazy in order to hide their crimes!!! It's DISGUSTING.

North Korea and Singapore are both run by a family dynasty. The only difference is that while the first is a communist state the later is a fascist.

Thanks for posting

Now both pieces are salvaged it should be a lot easier and straightforward to ascertain the cause.

South Korea has a good reason why they don't want to act harshly.

North Korea has a large number of artillery pieces pointed at South Korea's capital.

I believe that's their primary concern and scaring off investors would only come second.

But they obviously can't say they're afraid of North Korea's artillery. So it's only understandable that this wasn't mentioned and the economic consequences were put first instead.

Yea - little doubt about this - something blew up directly under her from those pictures. Going to be interesting to see what response - if any - comes from this.

Their ballistic mobile launchers could prove lethal to population centers in the South. . . .with every one having a probability that it might carry nuclear warhead.

The danger isn't nukes - there is still some question as to whether the "nuke" NK has is really even a nuke at all given the dispersal of radiation and strength. However, their chem and bio side is a real danger to the civilian population however.
