Treason at the Highest-Levels in South Korea
by Todd Brendan Fahey EXCLUSIVE to SiaNews.com August 5, 2003
(Seoul) -- Monday's apparent suicide of Chung Mong-hun, a top executive of South Korea's Hyundai conglomerate in charge of "inter-Korean relations" between the communist North and free South, has shone again a spotlight on treason in high places in South Korea.
Chung was an instrumental figure in the cash-for-Summit payments to North Korea, preceding ex-President Kim Dae-jung's "historic" visit to North Korea in 2001; he had been under indictment by a South Korean court for falsifying Hyundai's records, surrounding the controversial Summit meeting.
A son of the late monopolist founder of the Hyundai empire, Chung Mong-hun was directly in charge of developing projects in North Korea, including "tourism" into the Mt. Geumgang region of North Korea and developing a railway line which, if successful, will link North and South Korea for the first time since the shaky armistice between the two nations.
Mr. Chung was found by a sanitation worker below his 12th-floor office in Seoul. Witnesses, including family members and fellow business associates, report Mr. Chung having entered his office at before midnight on Sunday; his body was found five hours later, and initial forensic reports indicate that he fell to his death at around 1:00am, Monday (Korea time). In his office were found drafts of letters to his wife and three daughters, expressing his sorrow for the impending suicide. His corpse was immediately transported to a hospital owned by the Hyundai empire; his request to be cremated, with his ashes spread in North Korea's Mt. Geumgang, for all intents and purposes, makes it unlikely that a full and independent investigation into the nature of his death will ever be divulged...

Guess we can count South Korea out as an alternative "white homeland" eh?

It's getting tense here (in S.K.) North Korea's gonna start exporting missiles to Iran; the diplomacy ain't going nowhere; China and Russia would love to assist N.K. in taking over the whole peninsula. The conservative Grand National Party--despite having the majority of seats in Parliament--is in fractious disarray. The new President is a communist.
I'm weighing my options for the first time in 4 years. Japan ain't looking too bad right now (about the only other nation where I can make good $jack$ as an English professor).

Is North Korea a communist nation? Surely, of the mold of Josef Stalin. Sham one-candidate elections, forced infanticide and abortions, gulags for all political dissenters that make the former USSR seem noble.
But, hey, try it out. & send us a postcard (or, try to...).

*Originally posted by Raina@Aug 6 2003, 10:55 * ** Stalin's doctrine of "socialism in one country" disqualifies his USSR from being a "communist" state in the Marxist sense. The Stalinist USSR pseudomorphically sported the outward trappings of Marxism. Yet it was in fact a cronyist kleptocracy with many attributes of a fascist state. So there's no such thing as [Marxist] communism "in the mold of Josef Stalin."
If "sham candidate elections, forced infanticide & abortions, & gulags for all political dissenters" make a state communist, then many anti-communist states - including Afghanistan under the Taliban - qualify. **
"Cronyist Kleptocracy". What else would you expect from a bunch of jews? Benevolent rule? Oh wait. Stalin ruined the whole thing. He was such a jew-hater. ;)

I'm curious what interest Russia would have in NK annexing SK.

*Originally posted by Raina@Aug 6 2003, 21:00 * ** Batty & Mute, you're reading way too much into what I posted. What I wrote was neither an apologetic for communism nor a claim that "Stalin ruined the whole thing. He was such a jew hater." My point was that it's hard to see how the Stalinist USSR was "Marxist" in any sense deeper than the name & outer trappings. Whether or not that's been true of all "Communist" states is another topic. **
Stalinism is (essentially) National Bolshevism. Francis Yockey saw great potential in Russia towards the end of Stalin's tenure.
