Interesting Sense of Priorities

The breaking news on ABC FM radio last Friday demonstrated a very interesting sense of priorities...

Item 1: Prince Charles and Camilla Parker-Bowles announce their engagement
Item 2: N Korea announces that it has nuclear weapons, and is withdrawing from the non-proliferation treaty.

Question: which of the above is more likely to make the world move for you?

Speaking of priorities, while I don't buy Brin's conspiracy argument, I do find it peculiar that the US is huffing and puffing at Iran over it's nuclear intentions, and seems rather reticent about North Korea.

Maybe they feel that the sabres are best rattled where the troops are.

Maybe they can recognise a cut snake when they see it.
