North Korea prison camps 'like the Holocaust', survivors who escaped say

I don't enjoy posting content like this but after reading it this just screams World War III. Just an opening snippet of the article: [quote] [b]NORTH Korea's prison camps are a closed-off world of death, torture and forced labour where babies are born slaves, according to two survivors who liken the horrors of the camps to a Holocaust in progress. [/b] "People think the Holocaust is in the past, but it is still very much a reality. It is still going on in North Korea," Shin Dong-hyuk told AFP through an interpreter on the sidelines of a human rights summit in Geneva. Mr Shin spent his first 23 years in a prison camp in the secretive country, where he says he was tortured and subjected to forced labour before making a spectacular escape seven years ago - and giving the outside world a rare first-hand account of life inside the camps. The 30-year-old is the only person known to have been born in such a camp to flee and live to tell the tale, and was portrayed in a book by journalist Blaine Harden published last year called Escape from Camp 14: One Man's Remarkable Odyssey From North Korea to Freedom in the West.
