Moving this video to Ashenkase's personal queue. It failed to receive enough votes to get sifted up to the front page within 2 days.

that was great
I'm a big fan of monty python and I recognized the name but couldnt figure out who Palin was until they showed the monty python clip, had no idea he was a journalist now.
Ive always thought that NK has been unfairly demonized; they were victims of imperialism and the cold war, and sabre rattling aside they havent actually gotten into any wars beyond their own independence/civil war. The food shortages and poverty, I believe the western powers have a big hand in (much like in Cuba, Chile, Venezuela, and everywhere else capitalism was shunned). Not saying i'd model my ideal society on them, but i dont think they are as evil as they are made out to be..

North Koreans are not evil, they are human, just the regime is evil, the institutions, the people running the institutions, they are fairly high on the evil scale. Friends with Trump though.

Makes no sense to feel sorry for them if they, as a state, can and do build rockets that fly out past Japan and keep an army... yadda yadda yadda...
