***GREAT PICS 2DAY: PRO-USA/ANTI-KIM JONG-IL RALLY BY KOREAN CONSERVATIVES IN SEOUL***

A rally held today in Seoul, South Korea, by strong friends of the USA and strong opponents of brutal North Korea/Kim Jong-il. Joining were: defectors from communist North Korea, S. Korean conservatives, a German doctor who had worked in North Korea, S. Korean veterans of the Vietnam War, and others friends. They fastidiously burned the communist North Korean flag and sang in support of President Bush and a strong policy against tyrany. Enjoy.

you said it! :-) CNN, major US dailies blackout as usual, though.

[tractorman]

Outstanding!

Sad to think that there are more USA haters in the USA than USA lovers in South Korea.

[Molly Pitcher]

Thanks Kay. Very good. Always interested in what's happening in Korea.

But if there was an Anti-America rally that'd be newsworthy.

And, for an added treat 'y'all, if you have Windows Media player at 300K, you can see a Japanese TV clip from today of the anti-North Korea/pro-USA Seoul rally, here (cut and paste to your browser):

It is a two minute clip. About one minute into the story you'll see all the fun and excitement at that rally in front of Seoul City Hall, including effigies of Kim Jong-il being abused and molested. :-)

Well, basically in Korean, they say things like: "Kim Jong il', you go to hell." and "Obliterate the Hangcheonryon" (the radical leftist student organization in Seoul that trespassed on a live fire US military range in S. Korea this week, which amazinglym that leftist S. Korean President Roh appeasingly wants to legalize). Some of the other signs are in English as you can see.

Kim Jomg-Il is my favorite crazed dictator... what a rock star!

Note the shoe lifts! Apparently he's sensitive about his height.

Hey, midget! How's the weather down there?

Kim Jong-il is so short, you can see his feet on his drivers license! 
Kim Jong-il is so short, he has to use a ladder to pick up a dime. 
Kim Jong-il is so short, he can play handball on the curb. 
Kim Jong-il is so short, he does backflips under the bed. 
Kim Jong-il is so short, he models for trophys. 
Kim Jong-il is so short, he is the original Q-tip. 
Kim Jong-il is so short, he poll vaults with a toothpick. 

(people in North Korea are in prison or dead for doing less than this)

Quick! Let's all call or email Fox News and The New York Post and tell them to include it prominently in their coverage!
