The Truth About the Otto Warmbier Story

Widely known as the American student who took a poster from the street and ended up imprisoned and tortured to death in North Korea—but is this story really true? Today, we’ll share the part of this story that you were never told. Who Was Otto Warmbier?

Otto was a 21-year-old student at the University of Virginia in the U.S. who visited North Korea as a tourist in 2016, just like thousands of people do every year. Along with a group of other tourists, he stayed at the Yanggakdo Hotel.

According to the Western capitalist media, Otto was just a student visiting the country when, while casually walking down the street, he picked up a random poster and kept it for himself. As a result, he was allegedly imprisoned, tortured, and fell into a coma before being sent back to his family in the U.S. to die.

A shocking, dramatic tale that stirs deep emotions worldwide, often used to condemn the so-called oppressive regime. But is it really true?

🇰🇵 The truth about Otto Warmbier's case

Known as the American student who took a poster from the street and ended up arrested and tortured to death in North Korea, is this story true? Today, we’ll share a bit about the side of the story they haven’t told you. Who was Otto Warmbier?

Otto was a student at the University of Virginia in the U.S., 21 years old, who visited North Korea as a tourist in 2016, just like thousands of people do every year. He stayed at the Yanggakdo Hotel with a group of other tourists.

According to Western media, Otto was just a student visiting the country who, while casually walking on the street, picked up a poster he found randomly and kept it for himself. However, he was arrested, tortured, fell into a coma, and was later sent back to his family to die in the U.S.

A shocking dramatic piece that stirs strong emotions worldwide, supposedly exposing the so-called oppressive regime. But is it really true?

In North Korea, the peasant population is trained with rifles, and even factory workers know how to use them.

The weapons are in the hands of the people, and the people know how to use them very well. If things were as the media portrays in their propaganda, it would be very easy to overthrow this so-called dictatorship. But the truth is, the North Korean people have access to weapons, while the police are unarmed.

Kim Jong Un doesn’t have armed bodyguards, which is very different from the 'democratic' leaders in the West who give speeches behind bulletproof glass.

Something to think about...

What is the connection between the South Korean military and the United States?

In the end, the entire South Korean military obeys the United States.

For as long as we know, the South Korean military has been under the orders of the 'ROK/US Combined Forces Command,' whose top commander is a four-star general from the U.S. Army.

North Korea 🇰🇵 is the only country in the world where the State does not charge any kind of taxes from the people.

In 1974, all taxes in the country were abolished, making North Korea the first tax-free country in the world.
