Seoul: North Korean leader has so far executed 70 officials

SEOUL, South Korea — Young North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has executed 70 officials since taking power in late 2011 in a "reign of terror" that far exceeds the bloodshed of his dictator father's early rule, South Korean officials said Thursday.

South Korean Foreign Minister Yun Byung-se, at a forum in Seoul, compared Kim Jong Un's 70 executions with those of his late father, Kim Jong Il, who he said executed about 10 officials during his first years in power.

An official from South Korea's National Intelligence Service, who refused to be named, citing office rules, confirmed that the spy agency believes the younger Kim has executed about 70 officials but wouldn't reveal how it obtained the information.

But you are being groomed 12:58-none of us would know anything about N Korea if the MSM wasn't constantly reminding us.I cannot be outraged about a country we have zero control over.

I suspect he has basically done the same as Obama, but we can't prove the deaths were not suicide and accidents.

This guy kills thousands a month with his leadership. We've invaded do many countries over the same reason. Why not them? They have nothing to offer! No oil! No gold! Squat!

Who he kills THERE is the least of our worries. Does his power extend beyond his country? Does he care about owning anything beyond his country? Well ....duh. Keep asking questions ...if you care.
