CBS Story on NK Defector Says a Lot About CBS

[Weatherman2020]

”The soldier bolted from a guard post at the northern side of Panmunjom village in the Joint Security Area to the southern side of the village, South Korea’s Joint Chiefs of Staff said in a statement. He was shot in the shoulder and elbow and was taken to a South Korean hospital, the South’s Defense Ministry said. It wasn’t immediately known how serious the soldier’s injuries were or why he decided to defect..”

Uh, how about he lived where you get shot for trying to leave?

I'm sure CBS would like him returned to NK to face the consequences so they remain in good standing with the dictator and pig.

CBS thinks NK is a Progressive success story

 

[Sunni Man]

North Korea is considered paradise by the progressives and lefty liberals.

A country where the government controls everything.

And the people own nothing, and share equally in the misery. .....

Let's give them Rodman as an exchange.

No guns, single payer healthcare. everyone earns the same wage...why would anyone flee that Progressive Paradise?

No. Korean defector has parasites...

Injured defector's parasites and diet hint at hard life in North Korea
November 17, 2017 - Parasitic worms found in a North Korean soldier, critically injured during a desperate defection, highlight nutrition and hygiene problems that experts say have plagued the isolated country for decades

At a briefing on Wednesday, lead surgeon Lee Cook-jong displayed photos showing dozens of flesh-colored parasites - including one 27 cm (10.6 in) long - removed from the wounded soldier’s digestive tract during a series of surgeries to save his life. “In my over 20 year-long career as a surgeon, I have only seen something like this in a textbook,” Lee said.

The parasites, along with kernels of corn in his stomach, may confirm what many experts and previous defectors have described about the food and hygiene situation for many North Koreans. “Although we do not have solid figures showing health conditions of North Korea, medical experts assume that parasite infection problems and serious health issues have been prevalent in the country,” said Choi Min-Ho, a professor at Seoul National University College of Medicine who specializes in parasites.

The soldier’s condition was “not surprising at all considering the north’s hygiene and parasite problems,” he said. The soldier was flown by helicopter to hospital on Monday after his dramatic escape to South Korea in a hail of bullets fired by North Korean soldiers.

He is believed to be an army staff sergeant in his mid-20s who was stationed in the Joint Security Area in the United Nations truce village of Panmunjom, according to Kim Byung-kee, a lawmaker of South Korea’s ruling party, briefed by the National Intelligence Service. North Korea has not commented on the defection.

that country is surrounded by mine fields, people actually choose to go through them rather than live there.


NK is the reason I think RR made a huge mistake in signing a treaty making it illegal for us to murder a countries leader.
