US, North Korea .... this will teach 'em
 

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The United States on Friday issued a formal rule banning exports of luxury items to North Korea, including jet skis, I-pods, jewelry and fancy cars, in an effort to put pressure on the communist leadership in Pyongyang.

The new rule says the United States will generally deny applications to export and re-export luxury goods to North Korea, including luxury automobiles, yachts, gems, jewelry, cosmetics, perfumes, furs, designer clothing, luxury watches, tobacco, wine, alcoholic beverages, recreational sports equipment and electronic software and equipment.

dont they do this repeatdly?

That's gonna piss the little nutjob off, although I am sure he will get it in through other means.

The only who can buy those things in North Korea is the president and his family, most of the people there can´t even eat...

...by the way, if that funny guy could make a nuclear bomb, then I think he can easily to find how to buy an ipod.

every other week .... they forget ....

so what? Do you think the North-Korean elite won't be able to get it from elsewhere??For example from China

as long as thousands of people die of famine who cares about luxury items???

They are in troble now!!!
Why don't just stop......lol

The Socialist Heaven of North Korea.

Yeah, and the american companies that make and sell those goods will layoff american workers since their profits are down. Way to go!!!

This move might also force NK to start producing these types of goods themselves and if they follow the foot steps of other Asian countries then those product will eventually be superior to ours and we will began to import the fucking shit from them.

We should stop throwing "boomerang punches".

Holding companies will get them, and ship them Via another country.

just made the blackmarket d00ds a shitpile of $ wtg USA
