A reporter from the English newspaper called Mirror managed to film the true image and story about how North-Koreans are tortured and forced to work as slaves for the military. Children starving, people carrying rocks as in the stone age, people forced to eat tree bark or even corpses and use the food as punishment, are part of the image that Kim Jong-Un does not want the outside world to see! Everything is controled by the guards and people have no rights, no money and often no food!

North Korea continues to threaten United States with possible nuclear strikes
United States is being threatened by the North Korea, who announced in an official press release that they received the approval to initiate military operations against the United States, including possible nuclear strikes.
In a press release quoted by the official North-Korean press KCNA received in Seoul, General Staff Army says that they officially inform Washington that the American threats will be “crushed “through “nuclear striking ways”.
Pyongyang has increased challenges in recent weeks, and threatened with possible strikes against the United States, Hawaii and Guam in the Pacific.
“The time of explosion is approaching fast”, was added in the statement, which ensures that a war may take place on the Korean Peninsula since “today” (Thursday) or “tomorrow” (Friday).
The army believes that the entire responsibility of this crisis “rests entirely” to United States evoking the participation of American bombardiers B-52, capable of carrying nuclear bombs, and some “invisible” bombardier’s type B-2 at common military maneuvers with Korea South, which are currently running.
White House, asked on Wednesday North Korea to stop threats after the Stalinist state has intensified its bellicose rhetoric, declaring army prepared to take any nuclear strike against the United States.
Caitlin Hayden, a spokeswoman for the U.S. National Security Council declared that North Korea should stop threatening United States and to rather comply with its international obligations, because it makes North Korea even more isolated from the rest of the international community and underlines its need to develop economically.
Most experts say that the Stalinist state does not yet have the technology to enable the nuclear warheads deploy on ballistic missiles capable of reaching U.S. bases in the Pacific or U.S. territory even if Pyongyang made a nuclear test successfully.
The Pentagon declared on Wednesday that it takes very serious the threatens of North Korea related to striking the American territory and the Guam Islands, declaring itself “ready to respond to any eventuality”.
North Korea has placed the army in fighting condition Tuesday and asked its special “strategic” units to prepare for possible strikes against the United States, Hawaii and Guam Islands.
Also, Hawaii and Guam are considered outside the range of medium range missile developed by North Korea, which could reach, however, U.S. military bases in Japan and South Korea.
