US women 'face North Korea trial'

The North says the two women illegally crossed the border from China.

"Our related agency has decided to turn the US reporters over for trial based on findings of their crimes," KCNA reported.

The Associated Press says that the women could face up to five years in prison if convicted of espionage.

Pyongyang said the rocket was carrying a communication.

clue what the 'rules' are over there.

But the claim of espionage is baloney. NK seems to be taking a page from Iran.

3. Many foreign reporters have been crossing the border...
and filming the starving, dying people. The whole country is a catastrophe and "Dear Leader" can't have that - someone might broadcast it back into N. Korea and that could cause problems.
