They're Dreadfully Upset

Lack of trust is so upsetting. After all, people have a right to feel trusted, that their good word won't be questioned, that their traditions be given the courtesy of respect. It's not a nice feeling, to have one's word belittled, to be accused of underhanded manoeuvring, to be treated like a social outcast. And look, it's like this, six big bullies decided to gang up on one champion of a little guy. Is that fair? Nope.

So little wonder Pyongyang is furious. And they're not going to take it any more. For now. Unless amends are made. Something like the forgiveness-and-don't-forget deal of a million tonnes of oil for nuclear suspension they coerced from an exercised and troubled U.S. in the last round. See, tantrums will get you anywhere you want to go in this world, if you're bold enough, brave enough, and sufficiently disarming.

This time - again - the International Atomic Energy Agency is out, OUT! No more co-operation, and that's final. Fed up, just fuming mad. If the UN Security Council can humiliate and embarrass North Korea whenever it trumps up charges of missile launches, then North Korea can fight back. So there, China, Japan, Russia, South Korea and ... America.

And by the way, the Yongbyon facility is being re-activated. North Korea is a sovereign country! Meddle elsewhere, damn bullies. Scream bloody murder when we put a satellite into space so we can look around a little and assert ourselves, and know what? We're going to launch a nuclear-headed missile and launch you, South Korea, Japan ... America into oblivion.

And that's just for starters.
