Besides the illegal drugs and the counterfeit currency, North Korea is believed to deal in lots of weapons: rifles, missiles, perhaps even nuclear technology. Just a couple of weeks ago in Lybia, the rebels found a bunch of North Korean rocket launchers in a box labeled "bulldozer parts."
North Korea's main role in the Middle East is as a supplier of arms, technology, and equipment to radical states. As U.S. CIA Director Jim Woolsey remarked, "It is willing to sell to any country with the cash to pay."[xiii] Because of embargoes or laws against exporting such weapons to these extremist regimes, the items North Korea supplied have been unavailable from any other state (with the exception of China in some cases)
The alliance was based on North Korean technology and weaponry combined with Iranian money. By around 1993, however, the two sides were acting more equally, with improvements in weapon design and technology coming from both partners. North Korea helped Iran start its own missile factories; Iran financed North Korea's missile projects

In the Bizarro world of "Htrae" ("Earth" spelled backwards), society is ruled by the Bizarro Code which states "Us do opposite of all Earthly things! Us hate beauty! Us love ugliness! Is big crime to make anything perfect on Bizarro World!" In one episode, for example, a salesman is doing a brisk trade selling Bizarro bonds: "Guaranteed to lose money for you". Later, the mayor appoints Bizarro No. 1 to investigate a crime, "Because you are stupider than the entire Bizarro police force put together". This is intended and taken as a great compliment.
