North Korea 'providing materials to Syria chemical weapons factories'
North Korea has been sending equipment to Syria that could be used to make chemical weapons, a UN report says.
Some 40 previously unreported shipments were made between 2012 and 2017, the report found. Materials included acid-resistant tiles, valves and pipes.
The leaked report says North Korean missile specialists have been seen at Syrian weapon-making centres.
The allegations follow new reports of chlorine being used by Syrian forces, which the government denies.

What's it going to do? Sue the UN for libel in an international court? Deny with a strongly worded letter?
Might as well accuse it of eating babies.

Wouldn't surprise me if they have been. There's only so many decades you can sit there starving to death because of your government before you go full on Fat Bastard [youtube.com].

Hey now!
A) If the fishing's good over there, nobody has informed me yet.
B) I've been going to the gym for a couple months now and can again fit in my skinny jeans without pain.

My apologies for breaching your safe space. NK is a bastion of communist utopia where everybody has their every need met without ever having to put forth the slightest effort. You can go back to railing against all those evil capitalists who paid your way through college now.

Oh, don't worry. I'm sure the neoliberals will be able to achieve the same results with "free market" capitalism.
War is peace. Up is down. Short is long. Cue the floating, disembodied head of Colonel Sanders.
