In the USA in April 2009, we find a government unwilling to even investigate its own crimes related to torture. This Obama government is in power and no one knows if it will ever be toppled.

Yet, as though it fears being toppled, Obama and Obama policy makers seem to fear prosecuting tortures and to continue building walls. The border fencing between the USA and Mexico has doubled and tripled in a few short years.

Ancient Korea had been known as the Hermit Kingdom, and modern North Korea and South Korea have built the most hermitic wall on earth.

While North Korea and South Korea have been known to torture, North Korea is more of a leader in this area in recent decades.

North Koreans who try to flee are shot or severely punished, i.e. tortured upon their return. Torturing of defectors are no secret in North Korea—in contrast to the way torture used to be covered up in East Germany.
