A couple thousand North Korean defectors manage to flee
across the border each year, and their plight is very well
documented. If anyone is caught escaping the country, or
repatriated by China, their punishments are extremely severe.
There is plenty of documentation on life in North Korea.
And it’s well known that in the 90’s, an estimated two million
people died from famine. Video footage back then, clearly
showed sickly emaciated children, some with stick-thin bodies.
Although journalists do not have access to North Korea, the
thousands of defectors each year provide a gold-mine of
information.
And every single year, there are reports from defectors about
cannibalism, and bodies being dug up after funeral.
I am sure their army gets preferential treatment, and are well
fed.
All of their citizens are brainwashed. Have you seen the footage
of the mass hysteria when Kim Jong-il passed away?
