<div><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Thanks for sharing. I love Mr Bender’s sense of irony. The “North Korea, already on unsteady footing” and “turned over leadership as many times in two years as his father did in 17” parts are my favourite. I love how he mocks his readers with the sense
of urgency created by unsubstantiated hearsay. Wonderful stuff! </span></div></div></div></div> </div> </div> </div> </div></body></html>
