Reuters reports that North Korea's government has publicly blamed the U.S. for the widespread internet outages (http://in.reuters.com/article/2014/12/27/northkorea-cybersecurity-idINL3N0UB04K20141227) that the country has recently experienced (including today (http://www.reuters.com/article/2014/12/27/northkorea-cybersecurity-idUSL3N0UB07M20141227)), and taken the opportunity to lambaste President Obama, as well. From the article:The National Defence Commission, the North's ruling body, chaired by state leader Kim Jong Un, said Obama was responsible for Sony's belated decision to release the action comedy "The Interview", which depicts a plot to assassinate Kim. "Obama always goes reckless in words and deeds like a monkey in a tropical forest," an unnamed spokesman for the commission said in a statement carried by the official KCNA news agency, using a term seemingly designed to cause racial offence that North Korea has used before.
