Re: War time/NK's "sacred war" threat...merge
North Korea is rumored to have sentenced Kim Jong Hun to hard labor for his team's abysmal performance at the World Cup: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/worldne ... -exit.html
And, there is some rumor that the players were tortured as punishment.
....doesn't seem like there's any hard evidence disclosed yet, but I wouldn't put it past this sadistic Stalinist monstrosity...

Makes sense. Its patron, the even more cruel Maoist-Leninist-Stalinist dictatorship of China, after all, keeps harvesting organs from live members of the Far Long Gone cult.

"Fifa executive committee member Chung Mong-joon, from South Korea, provided new information on the issue." Uhm, yeah. Great source.
Got any other rumours to spread, Coito?

"Close" is a relative term, but that one may have something to it. He's dropped a lot of weight in the last couple years, and his son is quickly getting his bona fides set up as the next dictator. KJI ain't no spring chicken; regardless of when he croaks, he's clearly focused on setting up his boy as the next Dear Leader.Pappa wrote:Me too!!!FBM wrote:Seraph wrote:Got any other rumours to spread, Coito?I got one!

It's an article reported in the Daily Mail, and I clearly and unambiguously stated two things that made it abundantly clear that this was a rumor and that there is no hard evidence.Seraph wrote:Makes sense.

What were the things I said that made it clear and unambiguous (at least to anyone but the most dimwitted)? I said "North Korea is rumored..." and "doesn't seem like there is any hard evidence disclosed yet..." and "there is some rumor..."
Last time I checked, it was not "spreading rumors" to post a bona fide news article and to accurately describe the fact that no evidence has been produced to back up the allegation.

Thanks, Coito. Yes, you did mention that these were rumours, but all I asked was if you had any others you wanted to spread. Fair comment?

It's relevant to discussions on North Korea.
I wasn't aware that it's improper to post a news article AND to properly place it in its evidentiary (or lack thereof) context. Are you concerned that people might believe it to be proven, after I said twice that it appears to be a "rumor" and once that no evidence appears to have been provided?
