    The north should never have been allowed to produce the weapon in the first place.Week UN and all the rest now have to face the consequence, they allowed this to happen ,it dos no bear thinking about.The people are starving and lead to believe it is the fault of the rest of the world, that is understandable given how this lot operate. Keeping the population in ignorance is how they survive.
