Songun Mail : Victim Of US Imperialist Propaganda Lies Writes Us

Inhabitants of the so called "United States" of America and many citizens of the world at large are being force-fed an intolerable daily heavy dose of US imperialist propaganda lies about the situation of the DPRK everyday, skewing their vision of the Utopian Socialist Workers' Paradise, and leading them to believe such lying blatant threadbare falsehoods as the so called issue of "famine", or "human rights". The following e-mail Songun Blog has received from Comrade David B. is a prime example :

You are a nation of starving slaves. I've travelled all over the world, and I've met people from every nation, but not from N. Korea because you are prisoners and slaves in your own country.

Obviously, poor Comrade David B. is a victim of the relentless invasive pervading US imperialist propaganda lies propagated by the Pentagon-controlled criminal Bush clique-owned so called "media" that defames and slanders the national character of the Korean people single-mindedly united as one in total undying loyalty and deep admiration for Dear Leader Comrade Generalissimo Kim Jong Il the brilliant statesman, political genius, prodigious humanist, remarkable filmaker, prolific author, superb philosopher, musical virtuoso, ever-victorious invincible military commander, epoch-making intellectual giant of our times, and most esteemed political figure of the millenium.

For the benefit of Comrade David B. and our faithful Comrade readers the Songun Blog will dispel all these spurious blatantly threadbare lying US imperialist propaganda claims in the spirit of friendship and cooperation between the progressive peoples of the world, deepening the ties. First Comrade David B. opens his tirade by telling the Korean people that

You are a nation of starving slaves.

Starving slaves? Is that possible? Of course not, Comrade!

First, there is no starvation in the DPRK, the people enjoying the most remarkably unique standards of living thanks to Great Leader Comrade Eternal President Marshal Kim Il Sung's Juche Idea by which the people own everything and the infinitely wise Songun leadership of Dear Leader Comrade Generalissimo Kim Jong Il. Even a quick look at the Constitution of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea would clearly show that "The State shall effectively guarantee genuine democratic rights and liberties as well as the material and cultural well-being of all its citizens." (Article 64 of the Constitution of the DPRK) not only garanteing the people's right to eat food, but obligating the State to provide it. The State even develops new food sources at its own expense for the masses of the Korean people, making their lives blissful and happy, free from want. You won't see anything like that in the so called "United States", of that we can be sure.

And what about that claim of the people being "slaves"? Once again this is ludicrous. Under Constitution of the DPRK, in article 71, the people have "the right to relaxation. This right is ensured by the establishment of the working hours, the provision of holidays, paid leave, accommodation at health resorts and holiday homes at State expense and by a growing network of cultural facilities." If the Koreans were slaves, would their right to relaxation not only be protected by the Constitution, but the State obligated to provide them with the means to such relaxation at its own expense? Once again, we see the US imperialist shameful lie thorn to shreds by reality.

Comrade David B. then goes on saying that

I've travelled all over the world, and I've met people from every nation, but not from N. Korea because you are prisoners and slaves in your own country.

Poor Comrade David B. may have travelled all over the world but he obviously hasn't visited the DPRK, otherwise he would hold entirely different views about it and its people, single-mindedly united in one monolithic bloc of unfailling die-hard do-or-die revolutionary fervor in defence of Juche-based man-centered Korean style socialism and undying blind loyalty for Dear Leader Comrade Generalissimo Kim Jong Il and his invincible Songun politics that are the treasured Sword of Might of the Korean people bubbling with the sacred spirit of anti-US anti-imperialist struggle.

Indeed, Comrade David B. would hold only the noblest sentiments and the deepest emotions for Great Leader Comrade Eternal President Marshal Kim Il Sung the Immortal Sun of Juche, had he laid a floral basket at the foot of his statue on Mansudae Hill crying in desperation at the thought of the passing away of the Great Leader, singing "Where Are You, Dear General" with heavy lumps of emotions in his throat.

Had he stayed for only one day in Pyongyang the capital, he would have nothing but the foundest memories of its clean uncluterred streets, its orderly disciplined obedient people single-mindedly rallied around Dear Leader and the headquarters of the Revolution, and its strict yet lovely policewomen directing traffic on all busy intersections helping the fellow Koreans edificating the socialist Motherland of Peace and Justice, building it into the People's Paradise of the Juche Idea with Songun politics in spite of the criminal US imperialists and the Japanese reactionary militarists' evil nefarious conspirational plots to stifle it.

He would have been deeply moved by the natural floral beauty on display for all to see and admire at the Kimjongilia Flower Festival honoring the flower that bears the name of Dear Leader Comrade Generalissimo Kim Jong Il, a product of Juche Korea botanic science glorifying the extraordinary Songun leadership achievements of the Leader and a symbol of the profoundest love from the people to him, the fatherly figure of the great powerful prosperous country.

He also could not speak of the glory of Mt Paektu without shedding vast flows of humid tears recalling the place where Dear Leader was born, the most auspicious event that "was a bright sunrise promising the completion of the revolutionary cause of Juche started by President Kim Il Sung, the glory of Korea and a source of greatest joy to the Korean people." Comrade David B. would weep sincerely for Dear Leader at the thought of his childhood, noting that "inheriting the blood of a patriotic and revolutionary family and receiving the soul of Mt. Paektu, Kim Jong Il grew up to the sound of gunfire in the flames of the anti-Japanese war and the blizzards of Mt. Paektu as his lullabies."

Comrade David B. could visit friendly welcoming DPRK as it is not difficult at all.

We have already addressed the claim that Koreans are slaves, but what about this strange notion that they are "prisoners in their own country"? Could that be true? Nothing could be farther from the truth! It is a rock-solid real fact that Koreans are absolutely not prisoners in their own country. Once again, the Constitution of the DPRK dispels this lie as Article 75 clearly states that "Citizens have freedom of residence and travel." The DPRK Comrades are thus totally free to travel anywhere within and without as long as they have the proper administrative papers in order and obvioulsy barring the security necessities of national defence that are unavoidable in the face of the relentless criminal evil US imperialists' war moves against the DPRK, but other than that, there are no restrictions on travel for citizens of the DPRK and in fact Great Leader Comrade Eternal President Marshal Kim Il Sung and Dear Leader Comrade Generalissimo Kim Jong Il themselves have been known to travel abroad on occasions so you could not say that the people are "prisoners in their own country".

If Comrade david B. has not seen a Korean in his travels it could be due to the fact that he hasn't noticed them because, unlike the criminal colonialist US imperialist consumerist cowboys who lord it over everywhere they go, making the people's lives miserable, DPRK travellers are very discreet. And of course, it is true that Koreans do not travel outside the DPRK much but why leave when you have the chance, pleasure, and priviledge of living in the People's Paradise leading a happy blissful fulfilling life full of joy and hope thanks to the heroic Songun leadership exploits of Dear Leader Comrade Generalissimo Kim Jong Il?

Nobody wants to leave the DPRK because it is not like the so called "United States" where hounded persecuted progressives want to flee into exile. For those US progressives a home awaits them in the DPRK where the Constitution specifies that "The Democratic People’s Republic of Korea shall grant the right of asylum to foreign nationals persecuted for struggling for peace and democracy, national independence and socialism or for the freedom of scientific and cultural pursuits." (Article 80). Should you be forced into exile by the savage repressive criminal bloody murdering fascist nazi neo-con Bush clique military junta dictatorship using the most violent and barabrous methods for stifling dissent of progressives at home and abroad, the DPRK will welcome you with open arms as was done even to US imperialist soldiers in the past.

So to sum up it is a total fabricated Pentagon-controlled Bush clique-owned american so called "media" propaganda lie that has brainwashed you, Comrade David B., into the false threadbare erroneous untrue belief that Koreans are starving slaves and prisoners of their own country and it can easily be disproved by reading the Constitution of the DPRK and reports from unbiased sources.

Never believe the Pentagon-controlled Bush clique-owned so called "media" as they only spew forth propaganda lies to defame and slander the Korean people in order to justify their criminal evil bellicose pre-emptive nuclear war of aggression against the DPRK to stifle, conquer, enslave, and exterminate its people and its man-centered Juche-based Korean-style socialist system freely chosen by themselves out of their own free will.
