Meet the sons of an American defector to North Korea

From The Washington Post:

And theyve just appeared in an extraordinary video published online by Minjok Tongshin, a pro-Pyongyang news service based in the United States that runs the kind of stories that wouldnt look out of place in North Koreas official media.

I want to advise the U.S. to drop its hostile policy against North Korea. Theyve done enough wrong and now its time for them to wake up from their delusions, said Ted Dresnok, 36, who goes by the Korean name Hong Sun Chol. He was wearing a navy blue suit with a red Kim badge on it.

His younger brother, James, or Hong Chol, was wearing a North Korean army uniform and said he held a rank equivalent to a captain in the U.S. Army. His comments also sounded like they came out of the propaganda department.

The American Imperialists caused the division of the Korean peninsula, James said.

The Washington Post has a translation of the interview. Here's a snip:

Ted: My precious dream is to become a Workers Party member and pay back my gratitude to my general [Kim Jong Un]. I want to stand in a unified country by my general.

James: My lifelong dream is similar to my brothers. I want to serve my mother country with my life and bring about the unification of the Koreas so the world will see the superiority of Kims Korea.

My dream is to have those crazy straws!
