Open News: North Korea Increases Use of Public Executions
Open News reports that North Korea is increasing its use of public executions for relatively minor crimes as an instrument of domestic state terrorism, adopting the old Khmer Rouge method of using schoolyards as killing fields, and forcing kids to stand in the front row of the audience:
Children suffer from psychological trauma and experience intense fear, because they see and realize what happened to those who resist the government and the Leader.
Notwithstanding Open News’s optimistic belief that the “international community” is concerned about this, I question both the oxymoron and the conclusion, and I’ll believe that Ban Ki Moon gives a damn when he proves otherwise at some point before this regime finally collapses. This link has more information that you may want to know about how North Korea carries out its public executions.
Desperation. And it won’t work. The people know better now. They know that man behind the curtain is not Oz. I am amazed that hell doesn’t open its jaws and swallow these murderers.
Just shows you that the leadership is not gonna give up without a proper fight.
This could go on for ages by the way, a bit like Burma.
I can’t see any catalyst for an end to this vile regime despite discussions of many scenario’s on this blog.
