    I honestly wouldn't blame you not trying this again, it really should be moved to the failure forum, but it doesn't exist, much like your CT so here it stays.

    Quite the stance you've taken, you treat all CT's with this same skepticism.. or just anything I post? ;)
    Maybe this could be stickied for this seasons lambs, who'll soon be joining this forum, kinda like a guide of how not to do it, you started off with your CT, then decided "we aren't discussing the CT", the CT I'm still waiting to read about to be honest.

    Well it's there for you to read, make up your own mind, not much debate on it. Due to the nature of the NK leader and country, I think most wouldn't be surprised if it's true.

    Getting back to the CT, what height was short, was there an age limit or were kids rounded up also, what was the name of the island, was there nothing on the island to make a mini rafts out of and make it back to land of the giants?

    Is this the first CT you are skeptical of?

    And sure what`s the problem,if I got the chance I`d ship a boat load of jackeens to Achill feckin short arses bringing us shame :P

    Achill is full of Jackeens already. What's the boat for?


    Anyway, for the World Festival of Youth and Students in 1989 Jong il had the disabled removed from the city of Pyongyang. This is according to Jang Jin-sung a speech writer for the regime.

    World Festivals slogan was “For anti-imperialist Solidarity, Peace and Friendship” :-)

    Anyhow, http://www.dpi.org/lang-en/resources/details.php?page=753

    Some more information on the subject (Muntarbhorn is a Thai Human Rights Lawyer):
    Author Vitit Muntarbhorn, special rapporteur for human rights in North Korea, cited reports from defectors who said the mentally disabled are sent to camps known as "Ward 49." Other camps exist for dwarfs, who may marry but are barred from having children.

    There's yer short people right there...

    The report was filed with the UN in 2006.

    Plus it's not actually an island, so you can just walk/cycle/drive to and from Achill... that boat is becoming increasingly useless :D
