True.
The South Korean newspaper Chosun Ilbos reports that US spies satellites have captured secret meetings between Chinese and North Korean vessels. On about 30 occasions in recent months, China transferred oil to the dictatorship.

Don't know how much was transferred (some is allowed). We know there were what appear to be irregular transfers however.

But it's pretty much right in what it says. ;-)

Oh, now I get it, Eye doesn't like the truthful facts.

To sum it up in a nutshell:

"The real comparison lies in the United States’ refusal to live under the same threat it subjects to other countries, which forms a straight line of continuity to the present. "

Pyongyang, December 25 (KCNA) -- Kim Jong Un, chairman of the Workers' Party of Korea, chairman of the State Affairs Commission of the DPRK and supreme commander of the Korean People's Army, had a photo session with the participants in the 5th Conference of the WPK Cell Chairpersons on December 24.
He warmly waved back to them.

http://www.straitstimes.com/asia/east-asia/north-korea-preparing-for-another-missile-launch-us-media-report
SEOUL (THE KOREA HERALD/ASIA NEWS NETWORK) - Speculation has emerged that North Korea is preparing for another intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) launch, reported US media.

US broadcaster CBS reported on Tuesday (Jan 2) that North Korea appears to be in the early stages of another ICBM launch, with missile activity spotted at the same location where it last conducted its third ICBM test in November.

NBC News, citing anonymous military officials, reported on Tuesday that North Korea's first missile launch of 2018 is possible, if not likely, in the coming days.

One official said that the launch could happen mid-week, while another official described the timeline as the "short term".

Hopefully, and I have no hope, the North Korean people will soon be liberated from the hell of the Kim family.

Much more difficult when posters in these forums and around the world. Support the present and future murder and enslavement of the North Korean people.

Understanding there is not much we can do to help. The least we can do, is expose those who support their continued murder and enslavement.


Provide legitimate proof of that statement or else this comes to the fore.

If that isn't true, then one must assume your binary thinking is totally flawed because pointing out one sides errors does not absolve the other or indicate support, and it will have to be concluded that you are intentionally attempting to annoy, antagonize and insult others.

I cannot fine anyone actually saying they support the murder of the North Korean people, I actually cannot find anyone posting they support murder, it is a serious charge so please point out where this has been said.

The least we can do, is expose those who support their continued murder and enslavement.


Again where has this been said. I will need to hide the posts concerned.

Attempting to hide or ban the opinions of those who disagree. Will not assist us in our understanding of the world and its problems..
Quite true. However making unsubstantiated accusations belittles your service both as a police officer & teacher which makes one wonder just what type of cop & teacher you were.

Sorry your usual double talk proves not a thing.

Nowhere has anyone said that they even support the regime in North Korea, let alone that they support murder.

You are seeing spectres and spooks where none exist

You are putting words into peoples mouths, not "exposing" a thing.

But just carry on, the way you continue to behave is most enlightening, and not doubt provides entertainment to others.

These are forums that have rules and support of mass murder is not allowed. These forums have little or nothing to do with "the world and it's problems"

So now your changing your tune? Where is Gary's name mentioned in your statement:

You've accused many yet when taken to task over such accusations, you reply by naming an individual, again without any legitimate evidence. However, as mentioned already, you provide better entertainment than even the 2 Ronnies or Dick Emery could not provide :-)

Sorry... Does the following support or attack Kim?

"100% of his subjects are willing to suicide to protect him [Kim]."
"Except in the DPRK that revolution, when Kim's dad starved them, didn't happen and they now have a thriving advanced economy totally dedicated to destroying the bully USA."

Or do you believe that Kim is not a murderer and enslaver.


I see neither support nor condemnation, just statements at to what the people of North Korea believe.
