North Korea’s communist government is waging war against men with long hair, calling them unhygienic anti-socialist fools, and even leader Kim Jong Il has trimmed his famous bouffant locks.

NORTH Korea accused the United States of leading the region toward war yesterday in an apparent attempt by the communist nation to increase pressure on negotiators holding a second day of talks on its nuclear programs.

NORTH KOREA marked leader Kim Jong Il’s birthday yesterday by urging the military to be on alert and imploring its people to “burn with hatred” against the United States.
