    Let's just remember that we don't know if the translation is accurate.

    The bit about "parts of the USA, disguised to look like Europe, ... " seemed unlikely to me (the shot was clearly Europe, Rome IIRC).

    EDIT: although I loved the part about the sheets made from North Korean materials, the film crew giving the poor guy a cup of North Korean coffee and North Korean cake. While outside, people lined up to receive handouts from North Korean aid workers

    You could also argue that even the tramps in the US appear to be better fed than most North Koreans.

    It's actually tragic that the poor buggers in NK might believe it, although I doubt they do. But they're told that they are under constant threat of attack from the USA. It's like 1984

    I've become quite fascinated with NK since they declared they were going to launch a pre-emptive nuclear attack on the USA, a week or so ago. For anyone interested, this Youtube channel has lots to watch. You get the gist from the tones of their newscasters' voices.
