this is what happens when sariel emails me the morning after i've seen The Last King of Scotland -- which i highly recommend. the fine dictator-wear is courtesy of Idi Amin, in the mid-seventies (google-image-search the nice man, it's on the first page of results).

Comment on Korea 13 - Only a pawn in their game by Sariel Har-Peled

It might be a lie, but it is also seems to be a generally accepted fact that North Korea helped the communists in China during the civil war. See for example the wikipedia [entry][1]:
_North Korea also played an important role, with 30-40 thousand Korean troops from Soviet-occupied North Korea were provided[6] in addition to allowing the CCP to use North Korea as a sanctuary in general,[7] and repairing Manchurian railroads and bridges which were used by Mao.[8]
