search.japantimes.co.jp — Shin Dong Hyuk had just turned 14 when he was forced to watch the executions of his mother and brother for trying to escape from North Korea's "total control" prison camp No. 14, a Stalinist gulag for political prisoners. His mother was hanged; his brother was shot nine times. At the time, Shin, who was born and raised in the camp, felt no pity.

Well, Iraq was as bad or worse, but everyone bitches about us going in there. I'm sure most Iraqis are glad Saddam is gone, but the hippies don't want you to believe that.

"We" were told that we weren't the world police. Maybe some other country can step up to the plate for once.

Yeeeah... except for the fact that North Korea's been doing this type of s**t for, oh, 50 years or so and stories about them like this have been around ever since. So... more news, not so much propaganda (note the news is coming from someone that actually WAS imprisoned in NK.)

That was back then, Kythas - this is now.Beijing was telling anyone who'd listen throughout the second-half of 1950, that the closer US-led forces got to theYalu, the less assurances they could give about staying "neutral", but MacArthur, bless him, wasn't the sharpest tool in the shed and didn't "get" that message.That was a significant factor in the intervention coming about.

Digg Fantasy....China and U.S. ravage North Korea in a spit roast while high-fiving. (South Korea and U.S. can swap in the middle)
