.AS ANYBODY that has feuded with a neighbour knows, pouring rubbish over the bush is actually a serious increase. Thus picture South Korea's temper at the North, which has sent out some 2,000 balloons, each carrying around 10kg of fragments, around the boundary since May 28th. The most recent arrangement, numbering around 350, began getting there on June 24th. According to the South, the bags included paper, outdated clothing and also parasites that perhaps came from individual faeces. Why is North Korea sending its rubbish south?
