$1.7 million worth of beer/wine stolen from military base in South Korea
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/asia-pacific/3083296.stm

<snip> "Two South Korean men have been arrested on suspicion of stealing $1.7m (£1.2m) worth of beer and wine from the US military's main army base in South Korea.

An investigation is under way after a secret tunnel used by the alleged smugglers was found under the Yongsan base in Seoul."

<snip> "The incident will be a major embarrassment to the US military whose bases in South Korea are supposed to be on high alert."

....And we are supposed to trust that they know what the North Korean government is doing when a theft ring has been operating under their own base for over 2 years?????? sheesh...give me a break!!
