N.Korea releases jailed Canadian pastor amid standoff with US |
2017-08-10 |
[Ynet] North Korea freed a Canadian pastor serving a life sentence on humanitarian grounds, the official KCNA news agency said on Wednesday, just hours after the United States warned it would counter any threat from the North with "fire and fury." There was no clear connection between the release of Hyeon Soo Lim and the heightened rhetoric between Washington and Pyongyang. Canadian officials said on Tuesday a delegation led by the country's national security adviser had gone to North Korea to discuss Lim's case. |

#2 A Canadian Pastor? What was he in for life for ? Throwing his cigarette butt in the street? Jackals of the upper classes sniveling at the heels of the Proletariat? Bad mouthing the Great Red October Classic? Saying there is manure in the farmyard? Denying the Audacity of Grope for Change? |

#1 Did they beat this guy's brains in too, just to release him before he kicks off? |
