THE execution of Jang Song Thaek, the No. 2 man in North Korea, took Beijing by surprise and will adversely affect bilateral relations.
Beijing's displeasure is expressed through the publication of a detailed account of Jang's brutal execution in Wen Wei Po, its official mouthpiece, in Hong Kong, on Dec 12.
According to the report, unlike previous executions of political prisoners which were carried out by firing squads with machine guns, Jang was stripped naked and thrown into a cage, along with his five closest aides. Then 120 hounds, starved for three days, were allowed to prey on them until they were completely eaten up. This is called "quan jue", or execution by dogs.

Why would this bother the chinese? In the 1970s enemies of the state in certain southern regions of China were torn apart and eaten not by starving dogs, but by starving chinese.
Man, I hate these word problems!
Not manny.
Sorry. The dog ate my homework.
3 days? nope aint buying it either.
Whatever means was used to execute this guy it’s clear that the event was aimed as much at intimidating the rest of the leadership class in case any were thinking of initiating a coup against the young lunatic.
“If the dogs were ravenous enough to rip the people apart then they were ravenous enough to turn on each other.”
I think dogs will turn and eat strange humans much quicker than they’ll turn and eat their pack mates. Especially if they’ve been fed this way before.
Amazing how politics can turn what were once national breadbaskets that fed all into places of mass starvation, but the Satan spawned marxist 'isms have done it many times.
It's a generally fatal disease that wrecks havoc until it kills you and sadly now we've caught a strain of it, too.
It's sneaky and has disabled defenses, like a solid education, to slowly infect and spread itself here.
Can't wait until the new sheriff comes back, but from what I read it's gonna get worse before it gets better. We've got our work cut out for us.
As soon as the Chinese figure how to get someone in power in North Korea that will continue to barb the US according to Chinese need and direction, the fat kid is dead, and creatively so.
I thought the Chinese ate dogs. Missed a few I guess.
“..will adversely affect bilateral relations.”
I don’t believe that for a minute. China and NK have been joined at the hip since NK became an independent Communist country. For a short time they were a client state of Communist Russia but China pushed out Russia and took over.
IMO China can and does control anything going on in NK they choose - including the WMD program.
Here in Alaska, I’ve been to many Indian Villages where they forbid feeding of semi wild village dogs. Reason was starved dogs really chased grizzly bear outta the village, bear walked the road, between cabins like they owned the place. The dogs routinely killed the weakest, youngest dogs, and fought over the carcasses. Oh ya, pet dogs will kill and eat each other quick. I once asked the Indians why they just didn’t get them all spayed, no more pups for them to kill at 4 months or other dogs to eat. They laughed at this dumb white boy. They told me the pups that were like 6-8 weeks are what the kids played with; why would they kill them, ha ha. Kids got bit up also, but the dogs knew that if kids got hurt; bunch of them would be shot on site. The dogs sure chased the bear out of the village too.
If they're that ravenous and there are 120 of them then that's what, almost 25 dogs per person? I can imagine there would have been a lot of fighting to get near the humans. I would think that those on the outside would turn on each other.
Agreed. Screwing with the ChiComs cannot end well for him.
Reminds me of a scene from THE VIKINGS with Kirk Douglas.
I call BS too. It’s all political theater trying to justify an end game.
5 people at, say 120 pounds a person (they’re North Korean, after all) is still 600 pounds of people, or 5 pounds per dog. I think they’d just wait their turn, that’s what their pecking order is for.
