North Korea declares war....on balloons.

Courtesy of The Straits Times: 

North Korea's military on Sunday threatened to blow up balloons that South Korean activists plan to send over the heavily militarised border carrying 10,000 DVDs of the satirical Hollywood film The Interview. 

Activists plan to launch copies of the film - a comedy about a fictional United States Central Intelligence Agency plot to assassinate North Korean leader Kim Jong Un - as well as 500,000 propaganda leaflets across the border on or around March 26. 

"All the firepower strike means of the frontline units of the (Korean People's Army) will launch without prior warning... to blow up balloons," the North's frontline military units said in a notice to the South. 

You know I've seen a couple of North Korean weapons tests, and  my money's on the balloons.

I have little doubt that hours after the activists launch their "assault" that there will be thousands of copies of "The Interview" in the hands of the North Koreans.

The only question is how many military fatalities will North Korea suffer as their bullets invariably strike each other or soldiers choke to death on deflated balloons.

Hey, there's a reason we don't let toddlers play with them you know.

    For a North Korean, any sign that they have the DVD or (probably) someone in their family has the DVD - death camp.
