Just for everyone's information Amnesty International has yet to issue any report since April of this year. Also if you look at the reports for North Korea over the years the average about one a year. A country that is the greatest human rights abuser on the planet averages one report a year from Amnesty International while South Korea has monthly reports condemning the government over the fraudulent mad cow issue.

wy would Amnesty International release a report at the same time as the UN? They don't respond to UN reports. What is the link?

I believe South Korea has come out and said there is no food shortage in North Korea this year. The weather has been good and there have been no floods as they had last year. The harvest has been adequate. The North east which has always had a food problem will be no different with food being a problem as it always has been. A little reported but significant statement from the south.

Amnesty International has ceased from being a human rights organization. It is a political organization for leftist causes. How else do explain the steady stream of reports of mad cow nonsense and no reports on North Korea's human rights situation since April?

North Korea is the world's worst human rights violator and you would think Amnesty would at least have a featured front page link on their site to show viewers how bad the situation is, and yet there is nothing. Every time a major report on NK human rights is released such as this recent report from the UN, the first thing I do is go to the Amnesty International webpage and not once have I seen a front page story on NK human rights.

The fact that they have a front page link to an entire site dedicated to Gitmo is evidence enough that they are more concerned with freeing terrorists at Gitmo then the North Korean human rights situation.

Once again Amnesty is more concerned with freeing terrorists then closing gulags in North Korea.

I understand your sentiment and statements. However, your statement, listed above…is that really an acurate assessment of Amnesty Intl.'s position on N.Korea?

I find no evidence, on their website, which you have linked here, to provide that assertion. I found plenty of articles dealing with 'executions' and 'torture'.

I find no assertions as to "freeing terrorists then closing gulags in North Korea".

Mind you, I don't like, nor support that nasty regime in the North. However, I find your criticisms of Amnesty International to be void of anything constructive. I have my own criticisms which I shall not list here.

My question, dear sir; Do you find no good in Amnesty Internationals works, at all?

Avid reader,
