N. Korea seeks UN meeting on CIA torture
Beloit Daily News ^ | 12-15-2014

UNITED NATIONS (AP) — North Korea asked the U.N. Security Council in a letter Monday to take up the CIA's harsh treatment of terror suspects, instead of the North's own human rights situation.

North Korea's U.N. Ambassador Ja Song Nam objected to the inclusion of his country's human rights record on the Security Council's agenda for debate — the first step toward a possible referral to the International Criminal Court.

"The so-called 'human rights issue' in the Democratic People's Republic of Korea is politically fabricated and, therefore, it is not at all relevant to the regional or international peace and security," Ja wrote in the letter to Chad's U.N. ambassador, the current council president.

"On the contrary, the recently revealed CIA torture crimes committed by the United States, which has been conducted worldwide in the most brutal medieval forms, are the gravest human rights violations in the world," he added, requesting that the council take up the issue with a view toward establishing "a thorough probe into the CIA torture crimes."

Now we should worry. North Korea is going to lecture the USA on how bad torture is. I’m sure Obama will feel compelled to apologize to them for it.

No, send female Senator Feinstein to N. Korea and she can stay there and dump on the US the rest of her life - short as that might be.

Being as she is a huge POS already, she might get totally flushed down the toilet the next time she does.

If the boys from the UN decide to go to North Korea to discuss “torture”, I recommend that they take along a lot of KY and Chapstick. They’re going to need it.
