Is there something else we should know about North-Korea
I watched a documentary about North-Korea yesterday.

In a short introdudction which seemed not to be part of the documentary itself, I saw very short scenes which I did not see again in the documentary later. One was of a little child (probably a girl) which was purpotedly suffering from starvation. She was extremely lean. You could see her ribs sticking out, she looked literally like a living skeleton. However something did not seem right.

There were other scenes shown with children suffering freom malnutrition, none were as horribly malnourished as that first girl. It was that child's eyes. There was something else in her eyes than what you have probably alreaey seen in TV news broaedcasts of African children suffering from malnutrition, an apathetic expression. There was an incredible amount of despair and suffering in her eyes, as if there was much more than just daily hunger.

I can't put my finger on what it was exactly what I was looking at but I don't think it was simple starvation. The look in her eyes was like from an adult person, fully aware of what she was enduring, fully aware of the horror of her situation but without any means of telling it to anyone.

I mean to say - there was real terror in the eyes of that little girl.

The very short footage was showing someone partly uncovering the child. Imagine a few people, one with a camera, coming up to the child, and filming her for a few seconds or a few minutes. Why would her eyes look like a silent scream for help?

As I was saying, the scene with this little girl did not seem to be part of the documentary itself but was shown in the commented introduction. She was literally skin on bones. Why would that be? No one is going to tell me North-Korea isn't able to cultivate enough to feed its own people. Maybe they will lack oranges and pineapples but I don't think this is going to cause widespread famine.

Don't they have a long shoreline? Don't they do fishing? Can't they cultivate rice as any other East-Asian country does?

Re: Is there something else we should know about North-Korea
Just think about this unlikely paradox of a North-Korea investing in a vast nuclear defense program but unable to cultivate food or raise livestock enough to feed its 24 million inhabitants?

For centuries, rice has been cultivated in the most remote regions and most inaccessible places of southern and eastern Asia, and all by people who didn't need fortunes for this.

Doesn't North-Korea have enough fields and rice paddies? Don't they export ginseng? South-Korea does, it sells for high prices.

So the USA put an embargo on North-Korea. Why does this make trade with other Asian countries impossible? This doesn't make sense to me.

famine is created most of the time.

US embargos kill millions every year.

It will be fun to see Americans die of hunger when the petrodollar ponzi scheme finally come to an end. But by being morbidly obese the may take a longer run.

I cannot forget what they are able to say about people they starve with embargos like in Venezuela and N.K.

How can the US embargo on North-Korea kill so many people, particularly children?

I just showed this does not make any sense! North-Korea should logically be able to feed her population with or without American embargo.

So this seems like a vast setup, a hoax or a psyop. Maybe to have a credible reason for WW III ready or something of the sort?

North-Korea has a population of about 24 million, a bit more than 3 million of which live in Pyongyang.

The rest are mostly farmers. What do they do? Twiddling their thumbs? Are they on the dole?

OP here. I can't imagine why I wrote "was uncovering the child" at the time. It doesn't even feel like I typed that myself.

In any case, what I meant to say IIRC was that that man was partly covered, he was not completely visible in the scene.

I see you are one of those considers the media as their Bible.

Again, in a country full of farmers, why would there be starvation?

In documentaries or other footage, did you ever see an adult North-Korean who looks like they are actually starving?

All the more reason to think footage of children looking like they are starving is very strange. Either those childen were suffering from some disorder, or they were intentionally being starved.
