The whole site is a look back to the old Soviet Union. Consider this link:

"The U.S. Iraqi war reduced the whole land of Iraq to ashes and to a huge abattoir as defenseless peaceable civilians were massacred."

And then they went on to teach their people something:

"The reality in Iraq, a graveyard of human rights, teaches the bitter lesson that if a country loses its sovereignty, the human rights of its people are bound to be savagely violated."

Damn. I can almost hear this said in an old Soviet style voice.

"The DPRK, a state guided by the man-centered Juche idea..."

I had not heard about "Juche," so I looked it up:

 Juche (self-reliance) ideology consists mainly of two parts -- the philosophical theory, which maintains that the masses are the masters of history and revolution, and the guiding principles, or the "Revolutionary View of the Leader," which asserts that "nonetheless the masses are not able to take up spontaneously any revolutionary course unless they are organized into revolutionary forces and are led by the Suryong (the Leader)." (A Handbook, 1996: 11)

A whole "ideology," merely to justify hereditary dictatorship, of the worst kind.
