Riiiight. Today, NDtBF warned the US will “pay dearly” if it puts Pyongyang on a terror list over the killing of its leader’s half-brother. Make that, \u201cputs BACK” on the terror watch list. I\u2019m a bit vague on how they were removed from it in the first place; maybe the prior administration can answer up on that.<\/p>\n
This, of course is a result of the bizarre murder of Kim Jong-Nam, who was poisoned in a Malaysian airport last month with the nerve agent VX, opening accusations of chemical warfare\u00a0. This caused an international investigation of North Korea, and bad blood between Malaysia and the DPRK.<\/p>\n
Japanese and South Korean media report the US is considering returning North Korea\u00a0to the terror list, along with\u00a0Syria and Iran.<\/p>\n
In\u00a0typical hyperbolic statement, the regime\u2019s foreign ministry stated “The US will keenly realize how dearly it has to pay for its groundless accusations against the dignified” North. The message goes on to state the North opposes \u201call forms of terrorism\u201d and accuses the US of attempting to tarnish its reputation.<\/p>\n
Mmmm-Kay.<\/p>\n
South Korea claims a standing order from NBtBF to have his half-brother killed as a possible rival. The only North Korean arrested by Malaysia was released due to a lack of evidence, and deported back to North Korea.<\/p>\n
