How lovely

[Stalinist Speaker]

anyone have the count how many times she has been executed?

[Rss]

>Mirror

>A source told The Chosun Ilbo: "They were executed with machine guns while the key members of the Unhasu Orchestra, Wangjaesan Light Band and Moranbong Band as well as the families of the victims looked on."

>It was also reported that the families of those killed are believed to have been sent to prison camps under North Korea's law of guilt by association

Sounds legit.

Meaning how many times she was shot or that she was sentenced to execution before?

[Goblin]

Wouldn´t surprise me if some people took this shit seriously.

[TheEmancipator]

Daily Mirror as a source? Really?

So it's bullshit?

[Delenda Carthago]

Sounds legit.

What makes it un-legit, if you don't mind me asking? N. Korea does have the same draconic guilt-by-association laws as China and Japan, after all.

Well excuse me for being sceptical. Shitrags like Daily Mirror have well known histories putting up sensationalist bullshit stories. I'm not defending North Korea for having those guilt-by-association laws, but public execution with machine guns for porn sounds a bit wild, even for DPRK.

[Vladimir Innit Lenin]

I was gonna quote the Telegraph but you have to subscribe. It's in quite a few news sources, not just the mirror.

There was another one last year, which I think was actually corroborated, about Kim Jong Un having the former military chief executed...by standing in a spot where a rocket was targeted to hit. Brutal!

[Goblin]

Of course it´s bullshit dude. It`s such an outrageous claim. Sounds like something from a movie. Everything the western media says about the DPRK is bullshit. "Kim Jong-il claims to have invented the hamburger!", "Kim Jong-il kidnaps famous South Korean movie director to make Godzilla knock-off" and "North Koreans think that the Kims are Gods". The western media calls these claims "facts", even though theres no proof of it. They love to make their enemies look bad.

Hell, when Saddam Hussein was alive, there was a rumor that whenever the iraqi football team lost, Saddam would throw the players down in a lions den. Soon we will hear shit like this about Assad too.

Heres some true facts: Obama likes to murder little children in cold blood with drones, Bush and Obama are former coke heads and Clinton liked to fuck his secretary.

[Bronco]

Don't see why everyone is ranting on about the Mirror and the 'western media', you know these papers don't just make stories up themselves? They're relaying reports from Chinese and South Korean sources, specifically the Chosun Ilbo in the article in the OP

Not saying that makes it any more credible but the fact this story has been picked up by the Mirror isn't really relevant

[helot]

I wouldn't put it past the mirror to create a bullshit story tbh however as has been mentioned the mirror got it from Chosun Ilbo newspaper in S. Korea.

Here's their article about it from their english site.

They got the news from sources in China apparently.

"bobby told susie, and susy told jimmy, and jimmy told sally and sally told me..."

"bobby told susie, and susy told jimmy, and jimmy told sally and sally told me..."

hence my apparently but unlike some people in this thread i'm not going to flat out claim it cant be so or is so.

It's actually confirmed that the DPRK makes outlandishly wild claims about the personal achievements of the Kims, and that the regime kidnapped Japanese citizens.

[Vladimir Innit Lenin]

It's incredible that, on the one hand, people will believe ANYTHING negative written about western imperial countries, specifically the US, yet stories like this, which are often corroborated or come from multiple sources, are instantly dismissed as bullshit for no reason, it seems, other than pure ideology and denial.

It's really sad, actually. I really feel for people who are taken in by a cult that exists thousands of miles away from where they live, that they've experienced only through their keyboards.

[Comrade Jacob]

I'm not sure of the legitimacy of this.

There's a certain attractiveness to cynicism in this regard - if one thinks that they're all bastards, then one day one might find themselves pleasantly surprised for once...
