Christians around the world are being persecuted. This report from North Korea is chillingly reminiscent of Nazi Germany.
The atrocities in North Korea reached another peak on November 3, as roughly 80 people were publicly executed in seven different cities for crimes such as watching films made in South Korea, dealing in pornography or possessing a Bible.

Wonsan’s executions were carried out by binding a group of people to stakes, putting white sacks over their heads and blasting them to pieces with a machine gun in front of thousands of witnesses at a stadium, among whom were many children. Families of the executed victims were sent to prison camps along with the victim’s accomplices.

Scuttlebutt said that the capital of Pyongyang had no executions because Kim needs the wealthy citizens of the city for backing. Ahn Chan-il, an analyst who defected and now works at the World North Korea Research Center, said, “It is the beginning of the Kim Jong-un-style of governance, buying the favor of the privileged class of North Korea in Pyongyang.”
