Last American Tourists Travel to North Korea
The final group of Americans willing to pay Kim Jong-un foreign currency to help support his missile and nuclear programs has traveled to North Korea:
A group of American travelers ― probably the last before the U.S. government bans its citizens from visiting the reclusive state from Sept. 1 ― landed in North Korea on Saturday.
The eight travelers ― include CNN correspondent Will Ripley on his 14th trip ― were undeterred by possible arrest, imprisonment or nuclear war.
Details about the other tourists, including their itinerary, are unknown. Beijing-based Koryo Tours organized the visit, which general manager Simon Cockerell is leading on his 165th trip to the North.
“It [the ban] is a pity for anyone curious who wants to go, but especially for North Koreans who might want to know what American visitors are really like,” Cockerell told CNN. [Korea Times]

You can read more at the link, but this travel ban should have been in place a long time ago.
As always, don’t be a jackass, and you probably won’t have any problems. Probably.
How many poker chips, er, hostages, er, prisoners of the state does Fatty currently have incarcerated right now? 2 was my last count, the accounting professor and the businessman/spy. Kim Sang-duk (Tony Kim) and Kim Dong Chul.
With short stack and big blinds eating away at his chip stack, Fatty may need to find a way to add chips before the big showdown.
C’mon … you know damn well North Koreans don’t get to know what “American visitors are really like” when Americans go to North Korea. The only reason you don’t like it is because it hurts your wallet. And that’s a perfectly legitimate reason – so why not just say that?
Hmm thought I posted on this…
Long story short.. dude on left, faketivist. Dude on right, holy roller. Bye, cya, hope you get the full Otto while you’re there cause you deserve it.
Hope they are proud of themselves financing the latest nK missile launch over Japan. Naive fools.
Wait a second.. dude on the right is Ed Norton! Always wondered what happened after the last scene of Fight Club….
If these turds get taken then it’s their own fault. Don’t expect Obama to go fetch them.
