North Korea's Korean Central News Agency unleashed a torrent of wild accusations and even wilder grammatical errors at the United States this week, accusing President Obama of 'indulging in luxury' and crowning the nation a 'kingdom of racial discrimination' over the Trayvon Martin case.
In a column titled "News Analysis on Poor Human Rights Record in US," the news agency accuses the United States of hypocrisy in maintaining such dire human rights circumstances while also celebrating "the 50th anniversary of the institution of citizenship act in the presence of President Obama." While it is unclear what the "citizenship act" is that Americans just celebrated the anniversary of, it flies in the face of the realities on the ground in America, according to North Korea.
The United States, the "world's worst human rights abuser," is a bastion of "racialism," according to the report. "The gaps between the minorities and the whites are very wide in the exercise of such rights to work and elect," it claims, using as an example the Trayvon Martin case, in which "the Florida Court gave a verdict of not guilty to a white policeman who shot to death an innocent black boy." The report also claims "52% of the Americans have said that racism still exists in the country," but does not indicate where this number came from.
Racism, however, is not the only problem facing Americans today, according to North Korean propaganda. President Obama's lavish spending is oppressing the nation, as well. "Obama indulges himself in luxury almost every day, squandering hundred millions of dollars on his foreign trip in disregard of his people's wretched life," according to the report. President Obama is also alleged to have supported the George Zimmerman verdict, again based on no evidence....

Well, Obama helped reenforce that, didn’t he?
Obama said Najib has made progress on human rights in his country and would be the first to acknowledge having more work to do to improve the climate. Obama said he shared with Najib his own view that countries will be better off in the long run if they respect the rule of law and basic freedoms — “even when it drives you crazy, even when it’s inconvenient.”
The United States still has work to do on these issues, too, Obama added.

Well, they have either visited my mom’s house or have visited my ex wife.
Odd...the Norks sound just like MSNBC.

Ngoc, Ngoc-
“Who There?”
It me. Ngoc. (old North Korean joke)
Cripes, they can make videos with Frank Zappa playing in the background with the clip of Obama talking about our human rights abuses and McCain spouting off about wacko birds. Thaaathaa-that’s all folks!
Brilliant!
The North Koreans are loons. Of course the grass here looks greener than it does on their side.
How many divisions can Kim Jong-Un muster?
The funniest thing is that there will be people who believe it even as they enjoy all the perks of being an American.
LOL!
I read Escape from Camp 14 by Shin Dong-hyuk and was floored by
his story. In North Korea if your grandfather is sent to prison for life
then your parents will spend their lives in prison and, yes, you will
be born in prison and will spend your life in prison, as well.
A Stalinist tyranny like that makes hell look like a pleasant vacation.
I do not wish the fate North Koreans have to endure every day at the hands of the despot ruling them.
I read the story of a woman who escaped. Man, those camps are brutal. She says the babies born in the camps are just thrown outside to die.
This is a regime whose Dear Leader executed his uncle to remove a potential threat to his consolidation of absolute power.
Human rights in North Korea is the “right” to agree with the Dear Leader or face a firing squad.
Makes things quite simple over there.
Some of this could easily have come from MSNBC or the NYT, except for the part about the Dictator "indulging in luxury"
They are pretty much spot on about that one.
