Sometimes -quite often - the south does something for the north (like some kinda of charity - or defending the north - etc etc) that makes me think perhaps the north and south of korea - are really in cahoots with each other - trying to bring down the USA economy....

the north playing the role of the "axis of evil" - whilst the south playing the role of we hate the USA but we need you to spend a great deal of your money by placing your military here to defend us against the north (to whom we give lots of aid, charity, electricity, big screen tv's etc) -

and now also the Banknote Paper - so the north can print the USA dollars on (and then secretly give them to the south to be dispersed)...

S.Korea Mulled Providing North With Banknote Paper, Ink

The Korea Minting and Security Printing Corporation considered providing special paper and ink to North Korea as part of an economic cooperation project this year amid allegations that the North produced so-called supernotes or fake US$100 bills, it emerged Monday.
A Unification Ministry document dated Feb. 14, 2006 on inter-Korean economic cooperation involving major state-run corporations says one of the mint��s projects was to ��review offering special paper and ink for printing banknotes to North Korea.�� A KOMSCO document submitted to opposition Grand National Party lawmaker Chung Jong-bok says, ��We have no concrete, final plan for the inter-Korean economic cooperation project, but we have consulted with the Unification Ministry on a working level to produce and sell inter-Korean peace medals and commemorative coins and to provide special paper and ink for printing banknotes to the North.��

The KOMSCO said it considered the measure for the sake of ��the nation��s unification project��.

Rep. Chung warned of possible ��misunderstanding�� of the plan given that the counterfeiting issue is straining not only relations between Washington and Pyongyang but also between South Korea and the U.S.


does anyone else occassionally get the hunch that perhaps the south is helping and defending the north - just a little too much - for a country that needs so many USA soldiers here to "help protect" them?
