I'm quite sure that Hu Jintao would welcome your advice :-)

Perhaps many Western leaders would like to advise him to act upon it too.

Oh, you're the one that buys them! A few years ago a Korean chap used to go around all the local pubs with a suitcase full of all the latest films on DVD. Like an idiot I bought one for £2. Halfway through the film, the camera that was filming the TV where it was playing, ran out of tape! It was so funny it was almost worth the £2!!


Ruddy criminal, receiving goods of questionable origin, careful or you'll
become an "Huhneite" in time, just don't go around speeding.

p.s. didn't by chance pick-up any decent James Bond ones did-ya'...
... nudge-nudge....wink-wink??

Looks like another name then to add to the list, Sirius!! explain yourself!!!!

I meant genuine relased studio copies, not the "George Cole" Articles.

Just annoyed that in my extensive film collection, the "Forgotten War" is not very well covered....

..shame on you Hollywood, history doesn't matter just $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

Well Kim Jong the 99th will soon lay waste to your profits... :)

Very good then Sirius, glad to see no error of judgement having to be claimed
here then.

not a problem. Just waiting for "our" leaders to emulate the Yanks in their "Fair Use" policy as atm I can be legally seen as a pirate as all my media is being put on computer (only what I have purchased that is)

I don't think they can do us for watching online I suppose.

No, not at the moment, but I so wonder if they somewhat regret the high level
of freedom the internet affords us though.

Agree, but then we would probably end up like North Korea/China if they had their way with the net, totally restricted in what we can watch, read or write.....

....& I'd be a dead pidgeon :(

I do suspect though, that if applied, it would be those lot in Brussels who
would try this on first.

No one that I saw has mentioned that N. Korea is the world's number one counterfeiter of other country's paper money, mainly the dollar. Jung is doing everything he can to destabilize the rest of the world and if any country deserves a major intervention N. Korea in my book is the main contender.

I don't think China will let him do that as it will disrupt their economy as well & I'm pretty sure they won't like a conflict erupting that close to their mainland, as unlike 1950-54, the world has moved on & gotten more deadlier.

Im wondering what China is doing behind the scenes? They surely must be uncomfortable with the threats that N.K. are spouting.

Edit- your welcome Chris.

Hopefully their planning to overrun the N.K's so doing us all a favour hence
bring the world to it's senses. May even cause Iran to take a step back and
rethink on what it's doing.

Well, it's seems to take a world war to end a depression.
