I'm not really sure of the point of this post. The fact is that North Korea has a number of concentration camps far worse than anything the Nazi's had (Google for the details if you can stomach it).

This despite the fact that nations pledged that such things should never happen again after the second world war. Of course North Korea has no oil reserves to speak of, so no point having an invasion to 'liberate them' from a dictator. Cynical moi?

Maybe to highlight the fact that one of the chosen inner circle 5* generals was shot by firing squad recently ,there choice of weapon was interesting,they used a north Korean variant of the ZSU 23/4 which is basicly a 23mm 4 barreled anti aircraft weapon that obliterated the general ! Now that sends a clear message !

Yep it's hillarious in the brutal forced labor camps, known as kwan-li-so, operated by North Korea’s National Security Agency.

Where the government practices collective punishment, sending to forced labor camps not only the offender but also their parents, spouse, children, and even grandchildren. These camps are notorious for horrific living conditions and abuse, including induced starvation, little or no medical care, lack of proper housing and clothes, continuous mistreatment and torture by guards, and executions. Forced labor at the kwan-li-so often involves difficult physical labor such as mining, logging, and agricultural work, all done with rudimentary tools in often dangerous and harsh conditions. Death rates in these camps are reportedly extremely high. North Korea has never acknowledged that these kwan-li-so camps exist, but United States and South Korean officials now estimate that between 80,000 and 120,000 people may be imprisoned in them, including in camp No. 14 in Kaechun, No. 15 in Yodok, No. 16 in Hwasung, and No. 25 in Chungjin.  During the year, new satellite imagery indicated camp No. 22 in Hoeryung has been closed; it is unclear what happened to the estimated 30,000 prisoners previously held at the camp.
Meanwhile the world does nothing as usual.
