Al Qaeda also initially denied responsibility for 9/11. It doesn't really mean anything.


Good point. And to the same point, neither do accusations anymore....

I think there is a lot going on and we don't know anything about it. I'm not sure if this for national security reasons or because we would be outraged beyond belief....


>I think there is a lot going on and we don't know anything about it.

You said it. You know, NK claims that the movie was USG propaganda. And, to the average American ear, that notion probably sounds completely nuts on its face.

But, then, there's this that we learned just a couple of weeks ago:

Not only do we not know everything that goes on, but it's becoming increasingly difficult to separate ridiculousness from truth.

As it should. There's no need for propaganda against the PDRK, they've done a pretty good job of making themselves look bad on their own.

One would certainly think so.

Still, the notion that the USG would even consider involving itself in such a movie for propaganda purposes is about as ridiculous-sounding as infiltrating the Cuban rap scene to do the same.
