The two men, Ri Ryong-ha and Jang Su-gil, were torn apart by antiaircraft machine guns, according to South Koreas National Intelligence Service. The executioners then incinerated their bodies with flamethrowers. Yep, that oughta do it.

"..young, attractive women who would dance the cancan, sing American country songs or perform a striptease.." Funny how my mind got fixated on this particular part of the article and couldn't stop thinking about it. There is NOTHING on this Earth more enticing that a HOT Korean woman!

The article is a bit confusing because the headline says that the uncle was killed but the article says that his two deputies were. I think we can guess that the uncle met with a similar demise but the article doesn’t exactly say that.

It's in the middle of the article:
Mr. Jang was convicted of treason in 2013. He was executed at the same place and in the same way as his deputies, the South Korean intelligence agency said.ticle:

Is this one of the world leaders who prefers Hillary over Trump?He's been dead for about five years, so I don't know if that would be relevant.
To: Jim Robinson
Has any leader publicly said they prefer Hillary over Trump? Putin said positive things about Trump, but he didn’t say it in the context of who he preferred.

remembered Mr. Jang as a fun-loving prankster who was a regular at banquets that could last until morning or even stretch a few days. A key feature of the events was a pleasure squad of young, attractive women who would dance the cancan, sing American country songs or perform a striptease, according to the book and accounts by defectors. Well there ya go, he needed killin'.

I don’t regard her as a reliable source of information.

According to the late Don Martin, that would be “Jang Song-Thwack”
