"Dispute stalls food aid to N. Korea
TOKYO - A much-heralded US program to restart food aid to North Korea has run into difficulty as Washington and Pyongyang haggle over the terms of access, according to US and overseas officials. The previously undisclosed problems come amid estimates of growing hunger in the isolated communist country.
I feel the same way about the Koreans as I do the Zimbabweans: I don't care if Kim Jong-Il is the devil himself, FEED THOSE PEOPLE!!! Fuck the POLITICS!!!!!!
A report released Monday by the UN World Food Program and Food and Agriculture Organization said that despite a better-than-usual harvest, more than a third of North Korea's population will need food aid in the coming year. The agencies' estimate of the number of hungry has jumped from 6.2 million to 8.7 million....
Tony Banbury, Asia director for the World Food Program, said that if the problems are not resolved soon, millions of hungry people will not get food in the middle of the harsh North Korean winter.

Globalist Gluttons Gorge Themselves
