Hostage to the State

Despite Afghanistan, About 430 North Koreans have died of hunger in a northern part of the country, in the past month, because of chronic food shortages.

    It’s interesting to see exactly what we determine is worth paying attention to. Reading that article (about the 430 N.Koreans) really helps put things into a better perspective.

    The snarky side of me loves this quote:

    “The Unification Ministry, which handles inter-Korean affairs, said it could not confirm the report.”

    In other words:

    “The DPRK Puppet Ministry, which consistently kisses the ass of Kim Jong-Il , is keeping its mouth shut”.

    It is indeed interesting that Roh and the DLP care more about 23 South Koreans and blaming the U.S. for everything than their irresponsible support of dictator Kim Jong-Il acting as prison warden over the death camp called North Korea.

    Would you kindly post a link that shows Roh blamed the U.S. for everything?

    I realized that you mentioned Roh of the DLP at #2, while I meant President Roh at #3.

    Both the World Food Program office in North Korea and Good Friend’s “sister site” at “The Daily NK” published “unable to confirm” or “this flat out did not happen” articles. And lets face it although I have much respect for the work of Good Friends they do have a disturbing occasional tendency to post things bordering on the hysterical.
