Cash-strapped North Korea has demanded the United States pay almost $US65 trillion ($75 trillion) in compensation for six decades of hostility.

The official North Korean news agency, KCNA, says the cost of the damage done by the US since the peninsula was divided in 1945 is estimated at $US64.96 trillion.

The compensation call comes on the eve of the 60th anniversary of the start of the 1950-1953 Korean War.

KCNA said the figure includes $US26.1 trillion arising from US "atrocities" which left more than 5 million North Koreans dead, wounded, kidnapped or missing.

The agency also claims 60 years of US sanctions have caused a loss of $US13.7 trillion by 2005, while property losses were estimated at $US16.7 trillion.

The agency said North Koreans have "the justifiable right" to receive the compensation for their blood.

It said the committee's calculation did not include the damage North Korea had suffered from sanctions after its first nuclear test in 2006.

Informed of the North Korean demand in Toronto, where he is attending the G20 meetings, The Leader Of The Free World calmly finished his waffle and said "we've been re-working the budget, cutting fraud waste and abuse like Medicare and 401K accounts. There should be more than enough to honor this request from comrade Kim. Go ask Geithner how much he's raised so far."

The above Related Story link actually appears on the Aussie News page where I found the NK Compensation demand story. Click on the "ABC News" link at the top left here to see their page. I thought the Aussies were just showing their dry, witty "humour", but I followed the link and read about the super drink. We need to import it to replace the obuma kool-aid. It actually multiplies brain cells. It could destroy liberalism in America once and for all. No more pseudo-intellectuals running the government and the universities. Just a lot of smart citizens everywhere with the common sense to know the difference between good and bad.

What a concept.
