North Korea executed 5 security officials, South Korea says
February 28, 2017 at 5:05 pm
Quote:South Korean intelligence says five officials executed by anti-aircraft guns
Officials are believed to have been killed for making false reports to Kim Jong Un

http://www.cnn.com/2017/02/28/asia/north...-executed/

This asshole has ordered 340 people to be executed since he came to power in 2011. His preferred method is death by anti-aircraft guns.

Why doesn't someone close to him just pop a cap in his ass?

Because they, along with their entire family, would be tortured and executed and another asshole would become leader anyway, so it doesn't really make much difference.

I don't see the outrage, given how many Saudi Arabia executed this year. There's good and bad shit regimes. I agree that North Korea is shitty, but I also think that the Saudis should be removed from power. If one were indeed after creating a better world. Which was never the goal. It's always about creating a convenient boot licking world, not about improving something.

,America won't touch him...
Until they are ready .... Then Trump will have a legitimate excuse.

But he did say the US won't go to war unless there's something in it for the US now.

I'm just waiting until they do something to piss off China.

Hopefully then they'll do something about him

Kim's half brother apparently was 'insurance' for mainland China in that he was pliable and sympathetic to their interests and in a scenario where North Korea needed a new and improved leader, available.

That Kim had him offed, I'd think China would have wished they had guarded their investment a little better, as the assassination demonstrates their need was quite real and significantly impaired now.
 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

You're just repeating talking points or have you actually looked at the guy's biography? He spent his whole life gambling at Macao and other special economy zones. He was nothing like a political hope. Just a playboy living the high life. The most interesting part about him is where he got his money from.

I know but it the thought of being misted away by anti aircraft fire that makes it more dramatic.

I saw a video of one of these a while back and they are literally turned into red mist.

And the hangman with his sword in Saudi Arabia is better? If I had a choice I would choose the anti aircraft gun at any time.

Both horrible. And both shitty regimes.
