Juche or Stupidity?

In N. Korea Denies Aid Trucks From South, we read that out of pride, the North Korea regime is rejecting help from its Southern brethren. I can only agree Neil Cavuto, author of Pride Goes Before a Fall, who says the following:

"It’s hard to know the facts here. [North Korea] is still too proud, or stupid, or both to say.

"This much we do know. Hundreds were killed or injured in what by all accounts was a horrific train collision.

"We don't know what caused it, or the real casualty count from it. We do know that it was so bad that North Korea even now is reeling from it.

"But the country's so stubborn, so thick and so vehement that it continues to turn its back on those who want to help.

"South Korea says it will send men, money and equipment. North Korea says, no, no and no.

"The U.S. promises chemical specialists to monitor dangers in the area. North Korea says stay away from the area.

"Russia offers aid. North Korea offers a decline.

"Even friendly neighbor China gives food and supplies. North Korea will only accept them at the border....

"It's a pity the long-suffering people there can see neither the helping hands, or the terse, jutted finger, shooing that help away."
