Question

I read an artical that the u.s. is cracking down on north korea because they are conducting illigal opration with wepons of mass destruction! so we are banning ipods cars jetskies rice everything you can think and much!much more!!!!! LOL

Answer 1

It's a pretty pathetic response.

Answer 2

This is probably a good thing since they can use the electronics in them to achieve what they cannot manufacture. Think about the basic function of each and how they may be used. Do not think of them as a whole. Ex: ipod has an output jack and a way to raise the volume. All this means is that you are increasing electricity at some level - maybe for a triggering device? As for rice, you have to feed your people. Unfed people are unhappy people. Unhappy people lead revolts.

Bottom line: it's not always the actual item, but the goal that can be achieved with it. Most of the time, there is a reason. Other times, it's to throw you off of what the actual objective is.

Politics is never simple.

Answer 3

You are thinking of United Nations Security Council Resolution 1718, declared after the nuclear test, which includes bans on luxury goods (designed to hurt the ruling class)

Answer 4

Ipods are made in China, rice is grown all over Asia, jet skis are made in Japan.
NKorea can't even feed itself, much less export anything, that is why they are threatening the world, because they want more aid, the losers...

Answer 5

China is next door. count the amount of electronics in your house that is American made.

Answer 6

like what is north kora???
