Since when do you have to pay after you plunder a country? I think the Vikings would have looked really silly if after they raped and plundered a city, they came back with gold coins with their heads hung low and said "Here, sorry."
I think North Korea is wanting a little piece of what Iraq is getting now. Iraq gets plundered and rebuilt, and North Korea is going "hey! Why didn't they rebuilt our country?" Anybody else think this is a 11 on a scale from 1 to 10 on the absurdity scale? Lets see...
US sends troops and fights North Korea. North Korea fights back. US wins war. North Korea unconditionally surrenders. 50 years pass. North Korea wants trillions in royalties for damages.
43 TRILLION dollars?! Thats just frikin crazy. I know the U.S is up to its eyeballs and then some in debt but there is no way we owe them that much. So no, I don't think we should pay.

Isn't this a little like bullying a smaller kid, and when the teacher gives you detention for it, you demand money for your time wasted.

Am I missing something?
