North Korea reportedly executed former finance official Pak Nam-gi, who was held responsible for the failed currency reform late last year amid growing public unrest over the faltering economy.

We seriously need to set a kill-team on that nutball before he starts another Korean War. Mossad would probably take the job on contract.
You think that we should kill how we would to prevent the war. I wonder, did we not then as he.
/sigh
And there's the problem: You truly believe that.
The crap about "then we'd be no better than the enemy" is exactly the pablum that let's people like him subjugate and terrorize millions of people.
BAD GUYS NEED KILLING. Get that through your head, or you'll end up being ruled by them.
I agree with you that he deserves the death penalty.
I'd only previously brought him to justice , not only by killing him.
People deserve catharsis through the trial of war criminals and tyrants.
Why we have the laws, if we take justice into their own hands?
