If there still is a President (or otherwise) Obama in charge here after January 20, 2017, you’ll hear of similar stories - although not from the media dogs.

It is amazing how absolutely brainwashed the North Koreans are. Much like welfare in the US, servitude in North Korea is generational at this point. They no longer understand the concept of free will or freedom.

I’ve been reading a few WW2 books.
One of them mentioned that the 18-20 yr old German soldiers had never really experienced any government other than Hitler and were totally devoted to his cause.

Probably initiated the executions using that “executive order” thing that is so popular with tyrants these days.

That has been debunked....as this author notes.....I’ll wait for Dennis Rodman’s take on this.

The progressive, socialist paradise of North Korea. Say? Didn’t New York City just elect a socialist as their mayor?
