North Korean Atrocities
North Korea has the bomb. And they destroy children born with birth defects. And they sell their females into slavery in China. And the women, living in absolute poverty (of course, this IS Communism), whore themselves out for a handful of rice.

SEOUL (Reuters) – North Korea has no people with physical disabilities because they are killed almost as soon as they are born, a physician who defected from the communist state said on Wednesday.
Ri Kwang-chol, who fled to the South last year, told a forum of rights activists that the practice of killing newborns was widespread but denied he himself took part in it.
“There are no people with physical defects in North Korea,” Ri told members of the New Right Union, which groups local activists and North Korean refugees.
He said babies born with physical disabilities were killed in infancy in hospitals or in homes and were quickly buried.
The practice is encouraged by the state, Ri said, as a way of purifying the masses and eliminating people who might be considered “different.”
Mun Hyon-ok said women from her hometown in the northern region of North Korea bordering China were taken by a ring of human traffickers and probably ended up in China.
“And there are women who are selling themselves for a handful of rice,” she told the forum.
North Korea has called itself a people’s paradise and said criticism of its human rights was motivated by a goal of toppling the leadership of Kim Jong-il.
Yet somehow, the international Human Rights groups focus on Guantanamo Bay, where we keep terrorist suspects imprisoned in relative luxury, and they say that we must end this practice. Other groups will blame the US for North Korea’s misery because of UN sanctions. Both ideas are merely anti-American sentiment.
But North Korea remains a threat because of their nuclear weapons program. But their army is likely too hungry to march or fight, and the citizenry cannot long support a military because of the abject poverty created by Communism.
