If you give a North Korean mouse a muffin...

[Max White]

Although in all seriousness, they need food aid. Crazy Leader wants a nuclear war? Ok, well that is something we will have to deal with, but until then the population needs food. One mans crazy rants don't justify the starvation of many.

[MetalSlimeHunt]

The population isn't going to get food. Food aid goes to party officials and the more valuable aspects of the military, not the common man.

Giving the regime food only exacerbates the problem. We need to give them nothing until it collapses.

even this is too harsh, that government will let people starve to death until they are out of biscuits.

[The Scout]

Drop crates full of food and propaganda in the country side. Eventually they'll be swayed to the side that actually feeds them.

+1. No sense kicking the can down the road.

If it weren't for the risk of getting shot down by paranoid army groups, I'd suggest dropping crates of food into the rural areas of N. Korea. The common people who need it most get the food, and with luck they'll start thinking a bit harder about supporting the current regime.

Goddamnit, ninja'd by Scout.

The government possesses absolute control of the region. Assuming you get planes past the hundreds of anti-aircraft emplacements scattered across North Korea, any food dropped is likely to be seized and used as it always is before the people can take or eat a significant amount.

If there were an active rebel faction who's location was known to us, then that would be a candidate for food drops, but there isn't.

[Flying Dice]

In a way, it's sort of like an addict. If you just keep tossing them cash, they'll keep spending it on their fix. You have to change the paradigm, and barring an out-and-out invasion the only way to do that is to let the regime destabilize and fall. Any aid we give will serve to shore up the government, not help the people.

TOO QUICK FOR YOU. Atleast the name finally makes some sense...
But that may not work. Apparently everyone there has it ingrained in their mind that Great leader is basically a god.

Not everyone. Simple law of averages states that there must be some people in N. Korea who are fed up with what's going on and want it to stop. They just don't say so out loud, which means there's no way to help them from the outside.

[Just Some Guy]

So what we need to do is build a ridiculously fast, extremely durable plane designed specifically to drop food aid into North Korea?

[Sirus]

ridiculously fast

extremely durable

I think those things tend to be mutually exclusive when it comes to aircraft...

If there is a revolution then NK leadership would be excecuted.  They know this.  So what you are saying is basically to antagonize the crazy man.

One can dream....

I think between Lindsey Lohan's several never-to-be-sent sobriety party invitations, Florida's voting ballots, and instructions for how to use VCRs, we've got tons of paper laying around just waiting to be recycled into leaflets. If there's an inch of North Korea that isn't covered in pictures of food and instructions on how to off Crazy Leader Jr., we're doing it wrong.
