Unhappy Welcome to North Korea

North Korea aka Paradise on earth
What a bizarre place.

I just watched this very interesting documentary: http://www.vbs.tv/video.php?id=1438428757

I didn't know much about this place prior to watching this so I'm actually still in shock! I mean... wow!




I see that they have a website, http://www.korea-dpr.com/ ( Welcome to the Official Webpage of The Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK)) lol

I browsed the forum for a bit and there's quite a few people that wants to move and live there.

Reading the forums, they sounds pretty much like us. Except instead of them being the bad guys, we are. Blah blah.

I wonder if they're really going to blow up the cooling tower on that nuclear reactor like the forum says. If it happens, I'll add this to my favorites list and keep updated on it for a more comprehensive and unbiased view of world events.

Not defending NK here or any country really, but making a comparison:

Many poorer parts of the US have been designated with the status "third world". Just because you aren't in the very WORST situation, doesn't mean that living in a trailer park making $180 a week is the high life.

From first hand experience, when I lived in Newark, I remember seeing a skeletal girl dying (or maybe she was dead) in the entrance to a building. Looked like starvation.

Very few people actually know any better than their own current lot. We don't focus on our issues until they're blatant, but just as we marginalize ours we build iconoclasts of other nation's faults. Hence, things rarely get done anywhere, except for ill sentiment being created. It's human nature.

I went to school with a bunch of girls like this. Only they did it by choice. And were called bulimics.

Forreal. Every MLK Bloulevard or Street was always in the "hood".


Posted by Zild on Jun-25-2008 16:55:

It makes sense to me. Why would all the rich whites want to live around street dedicated to Dr. King in the first place? The thought makes me laugh.

Is it me or does that stink of racial profiling and/or bigotry? Blacks are the real criminals. Whites are clean and nice!

YONGBYON, North Korea (CNN) -- North Korea blew up part of its Yongbyon nuclear plant Friday, in full view of CNN and a handful of international broadcasters invited to witness this dramatic and symbolic event.



Damn, it wasn't communist propaganda afterall.

Wow, I really liked this docomentary. Though there's hardly anything new I learned, because I've seen many pics and Russian videos on it, but it was the best overall documentary, well put together.

I need to add it to my collection. I need help to find it where I can buy this on DVD, since I havent been able to find it myself, and trust me I looked.

Many thanks!

W.O.W. at Part 13

There are MLK Blvds around the world? I though that was just an US thing. Or is this one of those instances where apprently US = the world?


Posted by guerra-monstru on Jun-29-2008 22:07:

No, The US is the world.

it's an extremely positive first step but they still have enough conventional artillery along the DMZ aimed at Seoul to level it in a matter of minutes.

they can still make the Britain Blitz look like an LPGA event. their mobile 170-240mm artillery alone can rain down a first strike capability up to 10,000 rockets in about 75 seconds with a reload time of 20-30 minutes in hardened bunker facilities. thats just their MRL capability.

thats how they've lived for the last 40 years. so with that in mind, it's understandable why South Koreans don't get too worked up over the Nork's nuclear capitulations as much as the rest of the world does.
