N. Korea Tests Weapons on People, Gases Inmates-BBC | |||
2004-01-31 | |||
No comments ... I’m not surprised, even though I’m sickened. A program made by Britain’s BBC says North Korea is killing political prisoners in experimental gas chambers and testing new chemical weapons on women and children. Titled "Access to Evil" and being aired on Sunday, the program features an official North Korean document that says political prisoners are used to test new chemical weapons. In a statement, the BBC said the documentary included comments by Kwon Hyuk, a new name given to a former military attache at the North Korean embassy in Beijing and chief of management at Prison Camp 22. Using a drawing, he describes a gas chamber and the victims he says he saw at the prison in the northeast of the secretive communist state, near the Russian border. "I witnessed a whole family being tested on suffocating gas and dying in the gas chamber. The parents, son and a daughter. The parents were vomiting and dying, but till the very last moment they tried to save kids by doing mouth-to-mouth breathing," he said. "Normally, a family sticks together (in the gas chamber)... and individual prisoners stand separately around the corners. Scientists observe the entire process from above, through the glass." Asked how he felt about the children, he said: "It would be a total lie for me to say I felt sympathetic about the children dying such a painful death. Under the society and the regime I was in at the time, I only felt that they were the enemies. So I felt no sympathy or pity for them at all."
North Korea -- described by President Bush as part of an "axis of evil" because of a nuclear weapons program and authoritarian system -- has denied accusations of human rights abuses.

#3 Lemme see if I have this right. The US captures some people hell-bent on killing as many civilians in as many countries as they can, then locks them all up in the tropics. The prisoners are well-fed, given medical care, etc. Amnesty International and the rest of the "human rights" industry constantly whines about it, constantly expressing "concern" about the plight of those prisoners. North Korea is a country known for treating its people like shit. Relief supplies to deal with the nearly constant famines get sent to army units; women who get pregnant by the wrong (ie, Chinese) father get murdered; they spit on every agreement they make regarding nuclear, chemical, and biological weapons. Some people escape and insist that the North Koreans are using prisoners -- some in prison because they have the "wrong" opinions -- as human guinea pigs. The response from the "human rights" industry? "Well, we can't be sure about this. It needs to be verified." Bastards. |

#2 This has been know for YEARS but the media has deliberately suppressed it. Sun Ok Lee has (link-->) testified to this before congress. (Warning: her testamony is not for the faint of heart). Now this Kwon Hyuk has testifed to much the same thing and the farking AI wants to verify this? Yet if you fart in the general direction of NK they get their panties all in a knot. Fuckers! |

#1 Reuters and the Beeb! I mean this is from Reuters and the Beeb! If things like this don't convince the idiotarians in the world that evil really does exist I don't know what will. Aside from the poor mindless SOBs that have been brainwashed for fifty fucking years I almost think Poyangyoyo should be nuked |
