Kim Jung Un to US: Ban The Interview or else attack!

[Napoléon]

Outrage perhaps, I doubt the US would threaten to go to war with somebody over it.

Hence why I said slightly. Threatening war is NK's version of 'condemning' something.

To be honest its getting so easy to provoke that response it may as well mean 'hello'.

I can just imagine the outrage that would occur if another country made a film about assassinating Obama...

Are you kidding? It would be half the country's favorite film.

I get the sense it's like the boy who cried wolf though. They will kick off over something stupid eventually, there's only so much kicking and screaming they can do until they really want to get everyone's attention.

Maybe Obama was a bad example. I can't really think of someone yanks universally love. Maybe Ronald McDonald?

I wonder if one about David Cameron would even make it to the news here?

I certainly know we universally hate him.

"Hey! Where did Pyongyang go?"

- Possible question to be asked if NK attacks - especially if they use nukes . . .

I do find all this slightly ironic. I can just imagine the outrage that would occur if another country made a film about assassinating Obama...

We would need to find out if the US financed the film as part of a cultural exchange program or something.

I'm sure the republicunts would line up to see it.

Yeah if there was ever a country I wish we could simply remove from the face of the map, it'd be NK. Or at LEAST its leadership. Though killing the masses of the poor, deluded, fanatically indoctrinated might be a mercy-killing at this point...

I get your drift, but man, they're just people - people who have been indoctrinated and exploited, and they're the ones who will suffer because of the Great Asshole's ego.

Like I said. Mercy-killing. :/ Do you really expect that indoctrination to break if we were to do anything about their suffering? Even if we somehow managed to use a bunch of predators to hit every single government official in his regime and thus leave them without any part of that party leadership, the people would just find a new political messiah and gladly put him into power.

We see what happens to people in this country, and every country in the middle east, who are fundamentally indoctrinated intensely from birth to adulthood; the apple never falls too far from the tree.

And you see why there really wouldn't be that much national outrage if such a movie was made about that kind of topic towards any American icons.

We're really an opinionated lot.

Every conversation about a topic, any topic, no matter how small, wherein two individuals disagree, it always ends up going kinda -ish.

Though what if someone made a movie wherein the entire royal family is the target of an assassination team by a foreign film studio as part of a comedy? What would England's reaction be, I wonder?
