I blame the Chinese.

 Speaking of North Korean propaganda...

Has anybody read the accounts of those that have fled NK? It's pretty depressing.

13 minutes, but pretty interesting: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/programmes/ne...720870.stm

This is also a good read: http://axisofeviltour.com/nk-trip1.htm

You know, that video actualy speaks the truth if you knew how the U.S government was like.

But yeah, Kim-Jong-Il is very Ill in the head. =/

the banquet thing in part 3 was scary

the part with the tea girl was just very very sad =[

what's even more sad though is i bet the kids in part 12 could probably play saxohpone better than i could when i was a senior in highschool even with my 10+ years of experience...

Teaching everything you need won't take you anywhere. As a human being, our potential resides in discovering stuff by ourselves.

Take that away from people, and you are manipulating them. In North Korea, they don't even let you have internet, or knowledge from outside their nation. In my point of view, that's taking humanity out of people. The main difference I see between sects and religions is that religions, at least, give you that freedom. Sects, on the other hand, forbid you contact with the outside of it. And even then, most religions only act like that to look nice.

Speaking of North Korea, i lol'd of this.



"There comes King Jon Il, walking out from his mother's Patriotic and Revolutionary vagina, six months prematurely and without the aid of any physician."
LOL

Why is it in English?

Why is it in English?

to try and indoctrinate the imperialist american pigs?

>For use in schools

It would be in Korean if it were really for schools, unless North Korea teaches its children English. However, I doubt that given their isolationism.

I think it's a fake that someone thought would be funny.

It's funny that most people in the videos working as tour guides speak English fluently though. [/color]

It's pretty broken English. The tour guides in the videos were specifically showing westerners around. The entire tour was staged and not just "Hey, lets go here!".

What need would they have to teach their students English? They don't interact with the Western world at all.

This video convinces me it's better to live in North Korea than USA.
A country controlled by a leader that wants their country to success is better than a country controlled by big corporation that only cares about profit.

edit: double posted...

A leader of a country has a moral obligation to keep his people safe and not lie to them. A business, on the other hand, is designed to make money. Complaining that a business only wants to make money is like complaining that a fish only wants to swim.

Then there's Fox News. They are all around horrible, and should not be used as a standard for anything. There's a reason they're called Faux News.

The American government is run by corporation.
The fox news employee sued and lost the case, because lying in the media is not illegal, even though the lie would give millions of Americans cancer.

[color="#000080"] I was going to say that lying in the media is illegal, but I stumbled upon this:

On February 14, a Florida Appeals court ruled there is absolutely nothing illegal about lying, concealing or distorting information by a major press organization. The court reversed the $425,000 jury verdict in favor of journalist Jane Akre who charged she was pressured by Fox Television management and lawyers to air what she knew and documented to be false information. The ruling basically declares it is technically not against any law, rule, or regulation to deliberately lie or distort the news on a television broadcast.

Way to go USA. [/color]
