Is it tank in this courtyard? Map: 41.325441,129.665011

Its a lot of mass graves around this buildings, that’s strange, because not many “private” houses around the buildings.
Usually all the mass graves are to find just behind the houses/ larger villages, but here?
Where does all the people come from who are in these graves?
Just south of the courtyard there is strange circle formations in the fields…

Someone has cut the railway track off and took a piece of steel?!
Map: 41.367461,129.691522

Could this be a city prisons? 41.769159,128.837206 and maybe here 42.354156,129.659421 at least it has some very nasty walls… and a mass grave outside the walls.
But no real prison buildings, just one building (no village around), gigantic walls and mass graves..?

Awesome posts you guys. I took a tour into the DPRK last October and felt like I was on the “Truman Show”, always being watched as if everything was scripted, as it probably was. Been tossing an optimistic idea around, concerning a possible peaceful change in the DPRK. I have been sticking my nose up in Kim’s Juche philosophy for awhile, simply (very simply) put, Man is responsible for his own destiny… this is done in order to put more of the burden of food production on the individual… in other words… don’t blame the State if you starve again. Be self-sufficient in your daily needs. This Juche philosophy was put in place to ease the burden of the government and in a sense, deny its own “responsibilities”… In other words… Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for yourself…

Consider… did/ does this Juche philosophy instill into the individual more of an important role in the life of the nation. Would a future DPRK which is truly “Democratic” use this already “cultic” belief and blend it in with one of private ownership and commerce.

“An Individual’s ambition leads to the common good”. – Adam Smith
“An Individual is Responsible for his/”her” own destiny”. – Kim Jung Il

Makes me wonder if Kim himself didnt set the stage for a possible Democratic upheaval. Hard to say.

Anyway, you guys keep up the good work!

It’s terrible. I hope that there is an uprising by the free thinkers of the state. Obviously there will be more than speculated, people cannot tell what you are thinking unless you voice it. I’m worried that such a place now has nuclear power, and the potential to start a nuclear war. From what I’ve read, he seems the type that will use such power for his own means, and he seems to lack compassion for even his own subjects.

I have a feeling that Hillary Clinton, our next secretary of state, will be instrumental in making a high profile visit to North Korea by way of the northern provinces (instead of flying into Pyongyang from Beijing), exposing the death camps, especially the notorious camp 22, as the whole world watches – who knows, whatever diplomatic means she can employ may undermine the present DPRK regime without a single shot being fired. Keep up the good work! Your work in this area is making the difference!

Been looking this stuff up for quite a while. And still, nothing is being done about it.

Good on the world for looking out for fellow humans, eh?

The majority just sit back, say they care, and don’t do a bloody thing.

Keep up the useless work, keyboard jockeys.
