The weapons stuff—at least—from DPRK to LTTE (Terrorists) is pretty intriguing and pretty nefarious. It is reported to have had a retired Indonesian general involved, as well as some Singaporean middlemen. Lots of folks had their fingers in the pie, it would seem.
Technically, the North Koreans and U.N. are at war. I suppose it might be a technical violation of the Armistice agreement. Still, I like it. I’d go one further and make is all traffic in and out of NK.
It would be much appreciated.
Feel free to FREEPMAIL me to coordinate further by reply. Thanks, pal.

Either way it's good work.

Emphasis:
Chinese arms manufacturer NORINCO has been selling weapons to N. Korea. However, it is not clear where the weapons on board originated.
Good news: Pretty good stuff on the North Korea-LTTE Terrorist connection--against the backdrop of Bush/Condi wanting to work a deal to get North Korea off the Terror List.
Bad news: It is in Japanese.
It is from the 10/10/07 issue of SAPIO.
The cover looks like THIS:
(See fat, happy little Kim up in the upper left corner!!?)
And the article is entitled:
<< これが北朝鮮⇒スリランカ反政府ゲリラ「武器密輸」の証拠写真だ/惠谷治 >>
“They were shipping weapons for Tamil Tigers, which were designated as a terrorist organization by U.S. State Dept.”
Tamil Tigers, one nasty group.
She pretended to offer him a flower, got close to him, and set the bomb off at a public event.
Failed to provide translation just now:
"Here Is The Photographic Evidence [Of Weapons Smuggled] To Establish the Connection Between North Korea and the Anti-Government Sri Lanka Terrorist (Guerilla) Organization"
The tamil tigers AKA LTTE (just adding for anyone that doesn’t realize)
That is interesting. Just adding this for later reference.

Gandhi, Strange Bedfellows and DNC Contributions
BIOGRAPHY OF MAHATMA GANDHI : Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi was born on October 2, 1869 in Porbandar, India. He became one of the most respected spiritual and political leaders of the 1900’s. GandhiJI helped free the Indian people from British rule through nonviolent resistance, and is honored by Indians as the father of the Indian Nation.
The Indian people called Gandhiji ‘Mahatma’, meaning Great Soul.

And now look at this:
Ramchandra Gandhi found dead in IIC
New Delhi: Dr Ramchandra Gandhi, a grandson of Mahatma Gandhi and renowned philosopher and writer, was found dead at the India International Centre, Delhi, on Wednesday.
His body was found in Room No 15 of the IIC. The cause of death was reportedly natural. Ramchandra was 70 years old.
“As there was no response despite several calls, the room was broken open and he was found lying on the ground. Perhaps he died of a cardiac arrest,” IIC secretary Venugopal said.

Tidbit: Ramchandra Gandhi used to be a professor at Princeton University New Jersey.
Her torso is ripped right in half and you can also see the damage to the people sitting right near her, and the chaos that followed.
A bad nasty group.
With North Korean support.
But if Chris Jong Hill's guy staying in the Koryo Hotel in Pyongyang wires back that they are "cool", well, hey man, I guess everything is "cool" with the DPRKies! /sarc

""Congress would approve reasonable sums of money needed to support the process, including $106 million that Hill requested as the U.S. contribution toward fuel oil that is being provided to North Korea as an incentive, she said. The U.S. State Department had reportedly asked Congress for initial funding of $106 million to give the North energy aid in the form of heavy fuel oil, shut down the nuclear facilities and verify the process under a Feb 13 denuclearization deal. But the offer is conditional on North Korea making a full declaration of all nuclear programs and stockpiles and explaining its alleged nuclear connection with Syria, Boxer said. Hill said, "We are hopeful that we will have the complete declaration provided by around the year-end." There will be an additional round of talks with North Korea in late December, he added. "
VOA would seem to be a somewhat responsible source on hard news (if not on opinion or slant).
Yes I remember the ‘adoption’ from Yeltsin and our feeding, funding, and supplying them nuclear. Just wondered if we were still following that agreement.
