"Something was collapsing inside me.” A top North Korean diplomat questions his commitment to the state. And American student Otto Warmbier is detained while visiting the country. We hear from the doctor who joined the mission to bring him home from Pyongyang. It leads to rising tensions and a war of words, with President Donald Trump promising "fire and fury" in response to increased missile tests from North Korea's leader Kim Jong-un.
The hackers are back. In fact, the cyber criminals never went away. The Lazarus Heist Season 2 tells the story of the theft of billions of dollars around the globe. Investigators say a secretive, elite North Korean hacking ring is responsible. Nicknamed the Lazarus Group, it’s claimed they are becoming more ambitious, more audacious and more successful. North Korea says it has nothing to do with these cybercrimes, saying the United States is making these allegations to try and tarnish its image.
The Lazarus Heist podcast is presented by cybercrime investigative journalist Geoff White and veteran foreign correspondent and renowned North Korea expert Jean Lee.

It's very easy to criticize North Korea, especially when the person doing so forgets to mention some important facts about the Korean war: 1,550,000 North Koreans killed. On 12 August 1950, the USAF dropped 625 tons of bombs on North Korea; two weeks later, the daily tonnage increased to some 800 tons. Pyongyang, which saw 75 percent of its area destroyed, was so devastated that bombing was halted as there were no longer any worthy targets left. On 28 November, Bomber Command reported on the campaign's progress: 95 percent of Manpojin was destroyed, along with 90 percent of Hoeryong, Namsi and Koindong, 85 percent of Chosan, 75 percent of both Sakchu and Huichon and 20 percent of Uiju. Now imagine how Americans would feel if those deaths, tons of bombs and destruction of cities had happened not in North Korea but in the US mainland. It is not possible to understand the (traumatized) mentality of the North Koreans forgetting the immense war crime that the greatest power on the planet committed against that tiny Asian country.

1.5 million death is nothing compares to 2.2 Million death in Vietnam during Vietnam war. 3 million deaths during Indonesian revolution. But still, Vietnam could feeding their own people, Indonesia could feeding 270 million their population. Don't blame other country if NK's government is the one who made their own people starving.

@@fabiodeoliveiraribeiro1602 why should I feed the starving North Korean when it supposed to be their government job? There are hundreds videos in the KZfaq, even thousands articles, everywhere, from the North Korean themselves that gave their testimonials about the starvation in North Korea. Welcome to the internet era caveman, where you don't have to come to NK to see the starvation in there.

Considering at that time North Korea were invading South Korea without provocation to unify both sides under the rule of the lunatic dictatorship, they paid the price of declaring war. Don't try and portray them as victims.

I remember this. And I have the true point of view. Riding the elevator one floor's number is not on the buttons and their rooms for higher upon the structure. Sneaking down to investigate by checking and adjacent or he found a doorway that led downstairs to the stage on which he just stood upon. Anyone that trespasses into this Museum is welcome to take a peek and exit the official exhibit with many cameras to gauge the visitor's reactions. Foremost above all is the poster of the great leader to which the library amongst all other things is dedicated. He took the poster of the great leader and rolled it up and put it into his jacket, his Stage Production became headline news nationally shocking all the performers and citizens knowing the death sentence was the only prescribed remedy that works. You never know when you walk under this stage but it is every time you do anything and every time with God recording all of your short time. Having the fear of God is inapplicable among Christians, relying on Jesus's execution when committing another crime. He got his "I'm an American" awakening that Jesus forgave. Meaningless. His spit-in-your-face immaturity brought Devine Consequences no one escapes. As an Ambassador of America, he proved Americans can not be trusted. Guilty on all accounts, his televised execution never occurred. Alan Parson's Project Eye in the Sky, best lyrics An appropriate explanation. The false narrative twist that disregards the basic truths, rule of law, international relations are all political agendas. Piss in an Elevator Lift and expect the elevator to stop and you'll be stuck until the police let you out is popular on the front page in Singapore where they Kane Americans for crimes as well as their own. Divine Justice for a Divine crime no matter how Petty it was. Prevents it from looking like San Francisco, Portland, or Baltimore...
