The North Korean Human Rights Crisis

Google Tech Talks
June 29, 2007

ABSTRACT

North Korea today is home to a network of several dozen concentration camps rivaling those of Auschwitz and Dachau of days past, hosting over 250,000 political prisoners and their families. North Korea is a prison state- there are no freedoms of religion, speech, movement, assembly- even the right to leave the nation is barred from the people.

NK would be still treating their ppl like prisoners. NO HUMAN OR CIVIL RIGHTS AT ALL.

Now try to prove me wrong.  You, and lots like

you try to blame the USA for everything wrong

in the world. It's never their own fault.

Please get educated before you comment.

North Korea: where the people are given no rights, just a shitload of wrongs.

@bigal1940 Took the words out of my mouth, our generation is just stupid man.. there's no getting to them because the government already brainwashed them to be self-loathing able bodied anti-capitalist "revolutionaries." They need to leave if they're so keen on blaming the wrongs of the world on the only country that has even made an impact on freedom.. the French didn't even get the revolutionary ideas until we kicked England's ass.. people are just uneducated.

[denelson83]

NK is just full of wrongs. That's also what "no rights" means.

[msyoooo]

because they're a communist country as well... and they want to have good relations with North Korea :(
