Hi Geir, Nice find - the problem for me is with the issuing country. An Israeli journalist just returned from a week in the Korean People's Democratic...
Ron, This forum is for exchanging news about cat stamps. Unfortunately, too many stamp-producing entities have a deplorable lack of human rights. Are we to...
Ron, I'm quite on Marci's side here. There are a lot of regimes of questionable repute, and I am in no way a stranger to taking political stands, but I like to...
Hello, folks -- I must agree with Marci too. It is up to collectors what they buy, although I always try to let people know that many of these 'stamps' are...

How did I receive a message from a political activist under the cat stamps banner? Did other members get this too, from someone signing himself the 'Truth...

Marci, I checked the archives - no more political messages there, and I only removed one message and banned the member who published it. These things may...
