“South Korea's Dong-a Ilbo daily…”
A lifetime of misery in NK rather than facing the music for a screwup…wow.

Well, the most recent CNN story I saw said this...
A US soldier who crossed the demarcation line into North Korea had been facing disciplinary action by the US military and was set to be sent back to the United States, according to a US defense official.
https://edition.cnn.com/2023/07/18/asia ... index.html
Perhaps the soldier was not in a good frame of mind, and he made a stupid decision?
Not sure why he crossed.
We'll have to wait for more info on it.
Hopefully the North will just release him back across the border and the situation will not escalate unnecessarily.

I should have read SM's link before I posted.
But so far this sounds accurate...

Well, what do you think they are going to do with him?
Hold him until the U.S. promises to send them a lot of rice?

Released from South Korean prison to face assault charges back in US.
He escaped at airport and went to DMZ with a tourist group!
Ran across border laughing.
Why would we go to any effort to get him back?
Leave him. That’s one less moron criminal here.

Strange how every North Korean defector is a top intelligence operative, with scads of information. Every American defector is a maladjusted good for nothing.
Hopefully the disillusioned young man will be assigned a condo in Pyongyang and write a bestseller about his harrowing journey

It's not really that strange. You have to be seriously maladjusted to defect to North Korea in the first place.
Were all the Russian gulags booked?

No response from NK.
Not good for Private King.
But at least he's not AP.
North Korea has yet to offer any substantive response to requests from United Nations Command to confirm the safety of a US service member in its custody, a state department spokesperson said Wednesday.
In addition, Pyongyang remains unresponsive to such requests from the United States, according to the department spokesperson, Matthew Miller.
His remark comes...

NK state media has spoken.
"Throughout the investigation, Travis King admitted to his deliberate decision to cross into the DPRK, driven by his resentment towards the inhumane abuse and racial discrimination within the US military," the KCNA reported.
"Travis King also expressed disillusionment with the inequities present in American society and articulated his intention to seek asylum either within our country or in a third country. The investigation is still ongoing."

Good for Mr. King.
He’ll find North Korean society much more accepting of him than the racist US.
BWAHAHAHA!!!

This was totally predictable. Commies following the same playbook they’ve followed for over 100 years which is to stir racial tension in the US, just like their lefty dupes here do.
Maybe sleepy joe can send Dennis Rodman over to talk to his boy and free a brotha.

Biden could send Dump, considering how Dump and Kim Jong-Un exchanged love letters. Hopefully Dump would stay.

Yes it’s the people who hate blacks and make shit jokes about them that actually like them and it’s the people who are fighting for their rights that actually hate them.
We get it, you’re a racist POS.

Even North Koreans are indifferent to the plight of exercise enthusiasts. Such a pity.

Seems like he's in trouble. No wonder he defected to the land of Dump's BFF.

NoKo listened to his BS excuses for his behavior and realized he was of zero use to them. A pain in the ass to whatever country he’s in.
