I pity South Korea
Having a border to North Korea must be like living next door to a violent and psychotic drug fiend.
South Korean has recovered two crashed drones over the past week which it suspects have been used by Pyongyang spooks to spy on key locations including president Park Geun-hye’s official residence. The Korean army is currently examining a UAV fitted with a digital camera which was found on Baengnyeong island in the Yellow Sea …
"Having a border to North Korea must be like living next door to a violent and psychotic drug fiend."
What's worse is that it is more like the violent, paranoid and psychotic fiend next door is your ex who insists that you've not broken up, refuses to recognise any divorce procedings and constantly proclaims that all of the violence is really your fault.
Sad thing is I've known a few friends who have had to deal with people like this. Someone once told me about an abusive relationship she was in, every time he got mad and lashed out he would say to her "look what you made me do".
I'm sorry but what drugs are you on? The reason why the SK invites the Yanks in is that if the North thought the Americans would not back em, they'd be charging across the DMZ within a week.
Don't remember South Korea kidnapping people to help them teach their spies, this is the worse kind of Liberal whataboutery
"The resolution was poor" you say? Undoubtedly a North Korean drone then. Another giveaway would be the design of the engine that powers the drone, and if said engine turns out to be a really, really long rubber band.
North Korea is increasingly turning out to be the short tempered, retarded cousin of the international community. Always getting into petty arguments and near fistfights at family get-togethers, mostly due to his short fuse and intellectual shortcomings. But everyone tries to tolerate him, because he's family and because it's not his fault that his IQ is at near idiot levels.
And while nobody minds giving him a couple of quid or a pack of fags every now and then, since he lives in perpetual poverty, everyone secretly dreads the day he gets evicted, and shows up at their doorstep to crash on the couch.

Problem is this retarded cousin still managed to wrap himself with dynamite and grip a detonator switch. Meaning we don't want to tick him off since if he hits that switch, regardless of the circumstances, things are bound to get mighty ugly.
It is now clear that LOHAN's December 2012 test flight was even further off course than expected.

Maybe a Inmarsat repeater would be a useful addition in the next flight in case of a encounter with worm holes or playmonaut mutiny
That might be a thought. If the device itself isn't of value, give it a slapdash repair, allow it to come back, but fill the camera's memory with naughty Kim-Jong Un pictures (you mentioned farm animals, I was thinking a dress, perhaps an ugly beach bod with a speedo, perhaps some little girls or--even better--little boys *wink, wink*).
Does N Korean 'Health and Safety' let them use nitrobenzene in the fuel mix?
Insofar as that organisation may exist, they would probably wholeheartedly bless the use of unsymmetrical dimethyl hydrazine, chlorine trifluoride, and most of the rest of the stuff mentioned in 'Ignition!', as long as it won't kill too many of those who know how to build things that fly across the border and go boom there.
