Oh Kim Jong-il! You so funny!
If living in a free country means being a crow, I have no problem going "caw caw caw"
http://www.nytimes.com/2010/04/18/opinion/18myers.ready.html?pagewanted=1"NEVER mind the chronic food shortage: North Korea’s propaganda apparatus is partying like it’s 99 — and over there, it is. Year 1 of the Juche Calendar (named after “Juche Thought,” the regime’s official pseudo-ideology) was 1912, the birth year of the state’s founder, Kim Il-sung, whose birthday was celebrated last week. The new century will therefore be celebrated next year with all the requisite hoopla, which must then be outdone in 2012 for the 100th anniversary of Kim’s birth. The approach of back-to-back centennials, each symbolic of a national coming-of-age, puts great pressure on Kim’s successor and son, Kim Jong-il, to improve living conditions for the masses.
Our Strength
(Poem from Children’s Literature magazine, March 2010)
You Yankee bastards, look in surprise at the sky;
Then come here with bent heads, looking into the ground
You wonder what power fired the Kwangmyongsong missile
And how, startling the world,
We broke new ground in C.N.C. technology
You can’t begin to know our military-first strength;
It can’t be measured with your yardsticks.
Crow Mimics Swan
(Korean Woman magazine, February 2010)
On an autumn day last year, when the leaves were falling, the U.S. Department of State put out a "Human Rights Report."
...
It’s funny all right, like a crow mimicking a swan. Because the whole world knows that the United States leads the way in human rights violations. ... The United States is truly the devil of our times, amusing itself with murder. "America" is synonymous with "massacre."
For the world’s most serious violator of human rights to blather on about them is a mockery, an insult to human rights. ... It’s like the old story of the thief who cried "Thief!": America’s moaning about human rights is a crafty trick aimed at covering up its own status as the world leader of human rights violations. But can a crow become a swan just by whitewashing itself?
