Gizmodo is reporting that the United States, in an effort to sanction North Korea through luxury items, is taking part in an effort to ”personally aggravate a foreign president”.  How do they plan on aggravating Kim Jong ll?  Well, the U.S. will be killing sales to North Korea of the items that the president personally enjoys.

The long & expensive list targets the iPod, Cognac, Rolex watches, cigarettes, miscellaneous artwork, Harley Davidson motorcycles, Jet Skis & luxury automobiles.

Wow, that’s quite a list and I’ll be interested to see how exactly the U.S. implements this plan.
