Let’s just be clear that Professor Kang Jeong-Koo is a lying Stalinist media whore and failed petty tyrant: In a lecture in Incheon last year, Kang said, “Had the United States not intervened, the Korean War would have ended in a month with the death toll in both South and North less than 10,000. But 3.99 million more people died additionally because of the American intervention. The U.S. is the main culprit in the war and Douglas MacArthur its advance...

Yoduk Story’s web site is still down. [Update: Brendan Brown reports no problems accessing the site from Korea, but I’m still not getting in from the U.S. Odd.] Meanwhile, pro-North Korean professor Kang Jeong-Koo (Remember him? He called the North Korean invasion of June 1950 a “War for Reunification” and General MacArthur a “war criminal”) has been suspended from giving lectures, not for reasons related to academic standards–the man teaches things that are demonstrably false–but because his views embarrassed the...

My advice to everyone who values his health: do not have children. I think I’ve been sick now for a whole month, courtesy of the adorable little biohazards at my son’s preschool. To save time, I put everything into one post (HT to LiNK for most of these). _________________ . We Are (Not) One! Via MSNBC, we have more evidence, if any were needed, that South Korea’s popular enthusiasm for unification doesn’t necessarily extend to the people of North Korea....

Today’s Washington Times supplies some circumstantial (if subsequent) evidence to back up the claims reported in the Yangban’s excellent post above. Support your jaw on a stable, padded object and read on. Hard evidence of North Korea’s subversion of the South is emerging into the light of day: South Korea’s National Intelligence Service, or NIS, recently reported to the National Assembly that North Korea sent as many as 670 secret dispatches to the South over the last four years. Analysts...

Reader Brendan Brown, who teaches North Korean refugees to speak English with Australian accents, has a letter in this morning’s Joongang Ilbo, opposing the National Security Law: “My rationale can best be summed up by Volitaire who famously said, ‘I may disagree with what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it.’” I agree with Brendan. Oppressing people for nonviolent expression or mere belief–even repugnant belief–only clothes them in the aura of dissidents, an...

How do you transform a raving moonbat into a respected dissident? Have the cops invoke the National Security Law on him, that’s how! It’s the prerogative of the university and the students who select their courses to decide whether the propogation of idiocy is the purpose of academia, but if they guy isn’t plotting violence, why not just let him blather on in the intellectual ignominy he has earned? Speaking of paying way too much attention to one silly person,...

The 2002 candlight vigils were an exploitation of a terrible accident and two deaths for a repulsive political purpose. They harnessed racism, nationalism, hate, and xenophobia, goose-stepped in formation with mendacity, incitement to violence, the celebration of murder, and profaniganda, and were an effort to use the accidental deaths of two to shield the premeditating murderers of two million. This, the Korean ambassador to the U.S. assures us, was not anti-Americanism. The ambassador is a liar, but that alone doesn’t...

Dear Joshua, I’d like to thank you for taking the time to write such a provocative response to my op-ed and also apologize for my own rather tardy response. While I had planned to respond earlier, the best-laid plans of mice and men often go awry, and they do so with ever greater frequency when you are taking care of a sick mother. Be that as it may, as should be the case whenever thoughtful men engage in a dialogue,...
