Doug Struck writes that various experts are blaming the US for not feeding the North Koreans, but

Some analysts say the hardships in North Korea have made the government desperate for assistance and vulnerable to new pressure from the cessation of food aid. Others point to the government's stubborn refusal in the 1990s to aggressively seek outside help that would belie its state policy of juche, or self-reliance. They say North Korean leader Kim Jong Il would allow more people to starve rather than submit to U.S. pressure.

What a great man!
