Bad Luck

Watching North Korean leader Kim Jong-il and U.S. President George W. Bush hug and kiss, Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein says, “Oh, My! Things have changed since I died.”

Happy Birthday
|
A North Korean with a six-party agreement in hand bursts into the room to report to North Korean leader Kim Jong-il that aid will arrive in two months. Even before he has finished his report, South Korean President Poh Moo-hyun, brings a birthday gift of inter-Korean ministerial talks, rice and fertilizer aid, singing “Happy Birthday to You.” Looking down at Roh, the North Koreans say, “My, they’re fast.”
Feb. 16 is Kim’s birthday, the biggest national holiday in the North.

Follow the Leader
|
Watching a smug North Korean leader Kim Jong-ill pat the head of the U.S., saying, “Good job at the six-party nuke talks,” other countries designated as state sponsors of terrorism by the U.S. look on with envy. “That’s what we need,” they exclaim. “Maybe it’ll work for us too…”
North Korea stands to be struck off the list of terror sponsors if it disables its nuclear facilities under an agreement reached in the six-party talks in Beijing on Tuesday.

In the above, the year is 1994 and North Korean leader Kim Jong-il grins as the U.S. offers a light water reactor and 500,000 tons of fuel oil a year in return for the North's dismantlement of its nuclear program.
In the below, the North Korean leader turns his back on the same rewards, which will likely be offered at the upcoming six-way nuclear talks. “That’s not enough,” Kim says. “We have nuclear weapons now.”
