I enjoy a good bonfire likely more than the average rabble rouser. However this displays an extremely short sighted understanding of international relations by the activists responsible. Information is never a bad thing, but a critical tipping point may be in hand as the child king and his rule are in question internationally, and the Northern inner circle sons, who sit on immensely valuable natural resources that are incapable of being monetized on the world stage due to heavy sanctions, may be itching to relieve the choke. At no point should it be dismissed that the DPRK elite in Pyongyang, who sit generationally on these inherited commodities, are feeling the pinch due to the finance squeeze. The one trait that is common with tyranny and despotism in the modern world is GREED. At the end of the mostly symbolic act is more likely another order of numbers of North Koreans dead to eliminate the propagandist threat and a breakdown in the next round of dialogue, as hollow as it may be. (this has been done before and the North has never opened fire as response) .......sometimes you must pick your battles. Not every front can or should be engaged in civic activism. independent.co.uk/news/world/asia/north-and-south-korea-exchange-fire-amid-tension-over-crossborder-antipyongyang-leafleting-9788061.html
