Deadly Aid

CBC
The United Nations World Food Program has approved a new proposal to help North Korea, just months after its operations were scaled back at the request of that country's government. Did anyone other than the U.N think North Korea had really turned it around, and were not in living in dire poverty due to oppressive government policies?

The new aid will target pregnant women and children, and military officers...

South Korea will give them what they want, as long as they don't have to bother dealing with the "Democratic" "People's" "Republic", or the citizens living under it's tyranny. It's a sad situation, but giving North Korea food aid only solidifies Kim Jong Il's rule.
Appeasement of evil at the most extreme degree.
