Rimjin-gang's Underground North Korea News Update

Reporting from the inside of North Korea, the very brave underground news team known as the Rimjin-gang has released a new report written in June 2011 and published in December 2011. In this news update it is shown that people who carry oversized luggage or look too shabby are not permitted to enter train stations in Pyongyang. The reason for this is to "depict the showcase city, Pyongyang, as a beautiful and rich capital to the outside world." A reporter who goes by the name of Gu Gwang-ho writes:
"Soldiers standing at the entrance checkpoint are the military police of the People’s Army. Whenever they find a person with a shabby appearance, wearing a backpack or carrying a large piece of luggage, they stop them at the entrance of the station to prevent them from travelling to the city center."

"Many passengers carry a look of resignation as it happens very often. But sometimes we see people express their anger openly which turns into an acrimonious quarrel."

In another report also written in June, 2011 and published in December 2011, Gwang-ho writes about a growing economic inequality between the upper class and the middle class of The Worker's Paradise. According to Gwang-ho:
"Our country’s TV news often shows a gap between the rich and the poor in the capitalist countries, lashing out with militant slogans, and always ends up in defending the superiority of socialism."

"But the scenes that I witness in every day life are nothing more than a gap or a disparity in the society. The gap lies between the privileged class and the ordinary citizen. Of course the TV and the party papers never mention about this because the gap shall not exist in our country. "

These reporters are working closely with Asiapress Publishing in Osaka, Japan. They published this very shocking video back in December 2010:

China Releases Photos of Alien Moon Base

Via The Canadian National Newspaper 20 February 2012 Compiled by Scott C. Warring

Last week on February 14th Youtube user StephenHannardADGU posted this footage of an alleged alien moon base and reported that this image was one of many taken by China's new Chang'e 2 moon orbiter. And according to Dr. Michael Salla "there is a Military Industrial Extraterrestrial Complex or MIEC, and that Earth is being assmiliated by an alien agenda which also operates on Earth's Moon." StephenHannardADGU also claims that there are many more similar HD images that will soon be released by the China National Space Administration (CNSA). He also claims that those photos will prove the existence of extraterrestrial life on the moon. This news may be true and we'll be eagerly awaiting to see the other new photos.

Note: According to StephenHannardADGU:
"The narration by Karl Wolf has nothing to do with the images in this video. I included the narration by Karl Wolf merely to help the viewer realise that the cover-up by NASA concerning Alien structures on the Moon has been going on for decades".

Japanese Guitar Girl vs Van Halen

A common practice amongst Japanese folks is to make up a new contest for just about everything possible. This custom is based on the Japanese "fighting spirit" tradition and the practice of traditional martial arts through the centuries. So we decided to create a new Youtube video contest featuring a faceless Japanese Guitar Girl known as 17586063 in a very close match up against Van Halen. This challenge features both playing the hit song "Judgement Day" from the For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge album. So here they are via Youtube doubler:

After watching both clips, who do you think the winner is?

Be sure not to miss Van Halen on their current 2012 world tour.

Why Kim Jong-Un is Immortal

Via Meme Generator

The new "Outstanding Leader" looks much like his forever alone lasting grandfather Kim Il-Sung and, of course, his eternal "Dear Leader" father Kim Jong-Il. So part of it all is based on natural genetics. But here is the real reason why Kim Jong-Un survived yesterday's assassination attempt and showed the world how he is, in fact, an immortal warrior of the celestial sun:
