SEOUL (Reuters) Sept 3, 2005 -
North Korea's Red Cross Society sent a message of sympathy to the hurricane-ravaged United States on Saturday, in a rare gesture toward a country the communist state has called "evil" led by a "political imbecile." Like "clockwork".
..."In the message, the society expressed sympathy with the USA Red Cross in connection with the great disaster suffered by those areas due to the hurricane," the North's official KCNA news agency said.
Gee thanks. How about a DONATION of aid, instead of constant acceptance OF it...
"(The Red Cross Society) hoped that they would recover from it and the living of the inhabitants in the afflicted areas return to normal as early as possible," KCNA said referring to the message. There was no mention of an offer of recovery assistance.
I don't really think that last sentence needed to be typed out.
The same North Korean mouthpiece agency criticized the United States on Saturday for naming a special envoy last month to address the human rights condition in the North.
Yes, the same one.
"The U.S. is the world's worst human rights abuser," KCNA said, adding that Washington was engaged in "terrorism to spread the American style 'freedom and democracy' under the pretext of combating terrorism."
Pyongyang, September 2, 2005 (KCNA) -- Leader Kim Jong Il was presented with a gift by the visiting delegation of the U.S. Congress. It was conveyed to Kim Yong Dae, vice-president of the Presidium of the DPRK Supreme People's Assembly, today by James Leach, chairman of the Subcommittee on Asian and Pacific Affairs of the International Relations Committee of the House of Representatives, who is heading the delegation.
