Rest easy

Now I can sleep better know that North Korea won't sell nukes to Al-Qaeda. Well, sort of.

"We're entitled to sell missiles to earn foreign exchange," Kim Yong-nam, deputy to North Korean leader Kim Jong-il, said in an interview with Harrison.

"But in regard to nuclear material our policy... is that we would never allow such transfers to al Qaeda or anyone else. Never."

So al Qaeda don't get nukes, but there's plenty of other things the friendly North Koreans can offer. Not to mention other countries that may then on-sell to al Qaeda. Isn't tourism an easier way to earn foreign exchange? "Visit North Korea. We're unclear on the nuclear."

Guess I won't be sleeping so well after all.

There is a firm in TST that does package tours to North Korea, if you are interested.
