Besides drugs and terror, what else can you declare war on?

Seems Kim Jong-Il has it in for rice seedlings and weeds

During the farming season people mobilized to work at the farms are given only a bowl of porridge for breakfast, and it’s no wonder that they become light-headed and collapse while they are working. The workload is heavy, but their stomachs are empty so it is hard to muster enough energy to work. So everyone idles away time, working half-heartedly. According to Han Myung-Sun (pseudonym), “The workload during the farming season is unbearable. They act so generous giving us meager amounts to eat and worked us to death. I wanted to tell them not to give us food and let us go to the market to sell our wares instead.” However, the fact that food is provided once a week makes the situation better than last year. People are told that it is three to four days worth of food, but actually it lasts less than two days. Because there are so many levels of officials who appropriate shares of the rationed food, the amount that is given to the lowest ranked citizens is drastically reduced. However, despite the meager amounts of food people are given, it still helps them alleviate some of their hunger. The residents who have finished the ‘war on rice seedling planting’ now are put into the ‘war on weeding’.

3. The so-called 'wars' on 'terror' and (some) drugs are wars on everyday people

worldwide.

They are atrocities of the highest order, and the fact that Kim Jong-Il is following the lead of the West is no surprise.
