Kim loves biological weapons. They’re so much shorter than he is!

North Korea are on the verge of restoring its main nuclear plant in Yongbyon, which it had earlier shut down. That crafty Kim – he never shakes on a deal without his fingers crossed.

Kim Jong-il refuses to drop his nuclear program. You now, just in case the South Koreans are immune to all 13 plagues he’s about to unleash on them.

He told the Chinese premier that he was happy to enter into multinational talks about his nuclear program. As long as no-one asks any direct questions, makes any allegations, or in any way mentions his nuclear program.

Can someone give him some oil so we can invade?

Biological weapons. They’re evolution’s end-point.

I hope we have an all-out biological war. I mean, who’s going to win? Cholera? Smallpox? Typhoid? My money’s on yellow fever.

Kim says he has no plan to use the 13 deadly biological agents. He just enjoys watching them battle. / He just likes watching the all-in Plague Death Match.

Sure, North Korea’s got 5000 tonnes of bioweaponary, but China’s got the Chinese Burn.

The confidential discussions were held quietly, and by the time they finished, they were saying something completely different to what they started with. But that’s what you get with Chinese Whispers.
