Apparently even North Korea can see conspiracy theories

Disclaimer: I DO NOT CONDONE OR ACCEPT CONSPIRACY THEORIES, ESPECIALLY WHEN THE EVIDENCE POINTS IN ANOTHER DIRECTION. THANK YOU.

I thought this was interesting to post; apparently even North Korea doesn't support terrorism.
Pyongyang/ Boston: North Korea has dismissed a claim by a right-wing US website that it might have been behind the deadly bombings in Boston, decrying the report as "false propaganda" and insisting that it is against all terrorism. "When the (North) feels necessary to strike the US, it would not resort to such heinous terrorism in hiding," Pyongyang's Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) said.

WorldNetDaily (WND), a controversial US website that carries news and commentary from a conservative viewpoint, published Wednesday an article claiming North Korea might be involved in Monday's attack that left three dead and 180 injured.

The North's Korean Central News Agency, in an editorial published late yesterday, slammed the WND claim as "false propaganda which does not deserve even a passing note".
It denied any links between Pyongyang and Al-Qaeda, and accused the conservative website of cooking up "sinister plots" to tarnish North Korea's image. "The (North) would like to stress once again that it has no touch with Al-Qaeda and has consistently maintained the stand of opposing all forms of terrorism," the English-language editorial said.
 
I also believe that it's true that North Korea most likely had nothing to do with this. To say that they don't support terrorism, well, that's debatable. The one time as far as I recall them actually being responsible for a terrorist attack was the bombing of Korean Air Flight 858. You can google that up and see. It was a tragic day when this happened in November 1987. It was under personal command of Kim Jong-Il. 2 spies were shipped around got in the plane in Baghdad and left in Abu Dhabi after they set up the bomb on the plane as it was flying to South Korea. It blew up and killed everyone in it as a way for North Korea to discourage people from attending the 1988 Seoul Olympics. As soon as the North Korean spies were caught, both ate cyanide pills to not talk. One died. The other lived, received the death penalty, but was pardoned later under the grounds that she had been brainwashed and not really in control of her decisions. Whether or not she deserved to live (even she said that she doesn't deserve to live), she was spared, defected from North Korea, and still lives up to this day. I also want to restate that even with this I still don't believe that they were responsible for the Boston bombing just to be clear and to refute anyone claiming that North Korea had anything to do with this.
With that story said, I find that interesting how they are aware of what the news over here is saying just like us with the KCNA. It seems that they are not as closed out from society as I thought. I wonder if their "Supreme leader" got to see all the parodies and memes about him and how he would've reacted if he saw any of them.

Probably something like this. I have a better one but it doesn't follow guidelines so I didn't bother trying to find the link.
