- a little girl wearing a placard tells other kid a horrible story about a girl, Kim Ji-sun in S. Korea, whose mother dies because they are too poor to get medicine, her father was run over by American military vehicle, and her siblings were starved to death. She went on to say that American 'hyenas' put him to death by lethal injection because he had no money, I sold my eye to pay for dad's hospital bills, I cannot live without my dad, I will grow up and take revenge on American 'hyenas,' and want to be in the arm of father general(Kim Jong-il or Kim Il-sung.) We all fight until the day comes.

Someone needs to get rid of the sawed off, socialpathic chia pet North Korea uses for a leader.

Sounds like the script was lifted wholesale from some 1930s German propaganda film about the Hitler Youth.

Communist hell on earth. It should be mandatory viewing for all American college students, as an antidote to their professors' rosy view of socialism distilled.

In all likelihood, it is worse than Hitler's Jugend.

Re #6
Yeah, I agree. It should be made widely available.

Unfortunately, you're probably right. After five decades of this kind of thing, even if Kim died and the whole system collapsed tomorrow, it would take decades to build something resembling a "normal" country again. Five decades of indoctrination and propaganda isn't going to be overcome easily.

One of the last 'Heaven on Earth' models. We need this because it is still popular to deny the results of communism(unlike Nazism) in this country. Note how many neo-communists march at the anti-american rallies in DC where they glorify NK, and it is also popular in the universities. Here we have a living example.

Why are despots pictures everywhere in those countries? Two reasons. 1) To keep the supreme leader constantly in the forefront and 2) the subtle warning that he is watching everything you do. The Muslims have Madrasses, the Communists have reeducation camps, and all have constant daily brainwashing at school and through the media.
Isn't that the left's goal for the U.S.? Aren't we far down that path? Isn't Hillary the next and final step?

What they need is a class trip tour of S. Korea, that will change their way of thinking.
