(Reuters) - A "big and bright halo" floated above Mt Paektu, revered by North Korea as the sacred birthplace of leader Kim Jong-il, to mark his birthday on Wednesday, state media reported.
KCNA news agency, the secretive state's main news outlet and renowned for its colorful propaganda, said the "mysterious natural wonder" occurred at the break of dawn.
"The bright sun rose up, throwing its brilliant rays and the area of the Paektusan Secret Camp turned into a fascinating picturesque of spring. Then rarely big and bright halo persisted in the sky above Jong Il Peak for an hour, starting at 09:30," it said.
North Korean history books state Kim was born in a guerrilla camp in the thick forest of the mountain. Historians say it is more likely Kim, 69, was born in the Soviet Union where his father trained as anti-Japanese guerilla.
There has been speculation that the volcanic mountain, dormant for a century on what is now the border between the North and China, may be showing signs of renewed activity.
Some North Korea watchers say officials in Pyongyang are horrified by the prospect of any kind of renewed activity, or worse an eruption, that could destroy Kim's legendary birthplace.

How dare you not correctly read my post they way I viewed it, sir? Kinda foolish of you to believe I was talking about the actual population, not the dictator, or politicians right?
Also, I just don't understand why you put that little bit, "It's just not American.", can you explain to me, Mister Hawkeye?

You gave the impression you were holding an American condition of having access to legitimate information callously over a poor, unfortunate country.
Clear enough, Mister Roof?

No it is not, I don't understand the part where it leads to "American", though, it's not a bother as I understand that most people believe Americans are unintelligent, and people clearly see I have a United States flag on my avatar.
I'm calling BS. :downs:
Blame any eruption on America, invade South Korea in response to sabatoge.
