North Korea likens Bush to Hitler (BBC)
BBC UK Edition


..President Bush explained in a speech in Hudson, Wisconsin, last Wednesday, his decision to ask other countries in the region to help him persuade the North to disarm.

"I felt it was important to bring other countries into the mix, like China and Japan and South Korea and Russia, so there's now five countries saying to the tyrant in North Korea, disarm, disarm," he said.

A North Korean Foreign Ministry spokesman, in comments carried by state news agency KCNA, responded: "This clearly proves that the DPRK was right when it commented that he is a political imbecile bereft of even elementary morality.....

"Bush is a tyrant that puts Hitler into the shade and his group of such tyrants is a typical gang of political gangsters," he said. ..

1. This must mean that the Stalinist state
wants to sign a non-aggression pact with Bush.

"We follow Stalin's way of oppression, while Bush follows Hitler's. If those two could sign a pact of non-aggression, why can't we?"

2. And Kim Jong Il is... Stalin?
Sorry, I can't side with Kim Jong Il.

Bush is bad, but that guy is fucking terrible.

5. The reincarnations recognize each other
Like long lost lovers the souls of Stalin and Hitler look numbly across oceans trapped in mutual dissatisfactions with their new lives.

6. lil' Kim
Just about started a war when Clinton was in office.

He runs an oppressive regime that has a history of violence against its neighbors. Masses of people do not defect from a happy place.

He is upset because china, japan, and south Korea don't want to pay his nuclear shakedown money. Has he shot any ballistic missles over Japan recently..

Pot, kettle calling..

7. Bush is worse than Hitler
Seoul - North Korea on Monday described United States President George Bush as an "imbecile" and a "tyrant" who was worse than Adolf Hitler, and ruled out holding new talks on nuclear weapons with the United States.

In an unusually strong attack, a North Korean foreign ministry spokesperson said comments by Bush calling North Korea a tyrant during campaigning last week in Wisconsin were "malignant slanders and calumnies".

"He is a political imbecile bereft of even elementary morality as a human being and a bad guy," said the spokesperson, quoted by the official KCNA news agency.

Bush is "an idiot"

I feel there is plenty of physical evidence to back this up. Bush did heavy alcohol and drugs from the age of at least 15 years old for at least 20 straight years.

Besides the "idiot" the murdering in Iraq speaks for itself.

Rumsfeld Was On ABB Board During Nuclear Deal with North Korea
By Jacob Greber | swissinfo
February 21, 2003 6:07 PM

<snip>
The Swiss-based ABB on Friday told swissinfo that Rumsfeld was involved with the company in early 2000, when it netted a $200 million (SFr270million) contract with Pyongyang.

The ABB contract was to deliver equipment and services for two nuclear power stations at Kumho, on North Korea's east coast.

Rumsfeld -- who is one of the Bush administration's most strident "hardliners'' on North Korea -- was a member of ABB's board between 1990 and February 2001, when he left to take up his current post.

Wolfram Eberhardt, a spokesman for ABB, told swissinfo that Rumsfeld "was at nearly all the board meetings'' during his decade-long involvement with the company.
