The top pic from straight above looks like the least doctored for effect, one thing is for sure, it is dark at night in North Korea. No light pollution.......(Natl. Geographic cover a month or two ago), why don't we offer them some scientific cooperation, like building an observatory high up on one of them very dark NKorean mountaintops? We'll call the observatory the USNK Skywatcher program and then we could be friends with Kim Jong-il and the great people of North Korea. Kim Jong-il wants friends for himself and his people, I can see it in his eyes.... [ More ]

Pretty typical of any place ruled by a communist dictator .... great numbers of people starving, (one article said) kids disappear 'unidentifiable meat' appears in markets. Yet king dictator enjoys opulent banquets

North Korea has been like that since the get go 50 years ago. If China wasn't their sugar mama they would be done. China was total commie, and couldn't survive either they went capitalist ala slave labor to support the "workers" it is going to get harder and harder to control the "workers" eventually.

Worth 1000 words of explaining commie-socialism vs capitalism ... or maybe NK is just practicing energy conservation.
