It wasn't photographer Steve Gong's first trip to North Korea. But on this trip, putting his life at risk, he practiced for months to capture secret video footage in the notoriously clandestine country. And he pulled it off.

    No drunks throwing up in the subway.
    No fat chicks waddling around.
    Clean streets.
    Some of the girls are yum yum.
    Lots of pretty flowers.
    No traffic jams.

    Exactly what's the problem again ? :lol:

    That bannister between the escalators was awesome. If it weren't for those speakers positioned every hundred feet and that glass cage at the bottom, sliding down it would have been hilarious.

    That subway station looked pretty nifty too. Bet it didn't even slightly smell like piss, poop, booze, and barf the way most of the LRT stations (and bus shelters, and buses, and trains) do in Calgary and probably every other large North American city as well. So, government-enforced politeness, and harsh punishment of vandals, street punks, and litterbugs, is bad for exactly what reason again?

    That is what I thought too. An undercover video showed a very clean atmosphere devoid of the kind of stuff we see on our streets. Not an endorsement of their government but a surprising view. Didn't actually expect to see a mall either.

    Try Cuba for the US concentration camp.

    I hope that's not the U.S. concentration camp. Any Cuban who touches U.S. soil instantly becomes a citizen. That seems like poor policy if the U.S. wants to indoctrinate the camp inmates and use them for slave labor.

    No, the reference is Gitmo and please spare me the rhetoric that its all about prosecuting terrorists. Nobody is going after the illegal combatants that the CIA amounts to nor prosecuting pilots who kill children gathering wood or murder civilians in Pakistan with predator drone strikes.

    The CIA is in Pakistan at the pleasure of the Pakistani government. I don't think that is wise of Pakistan, but it's their decision. I'm disturbed you think the drone pilots will go off scott-free. They won't have a bloody public execution as the program is classified, but I'm sure they'll get what's coming to them.

    As for camp X-Ray, it does need to close. It's one of the main reasons Obama's poll numbers are so low (he promised to close the camp by January 2010), and it could very well cost him re-election. But to compare camp X-Ray to North Korean concentration camps seems like a false equivilancy. Soviet gulags and Auschwitz have much more in common with the North Korean camps.
