Kim Jong-un government levels racist epithet at Barack Obama, calling him a monkey
The war of words intensified this weekend between North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un and the United States.
Following Internet blackouts in Pyongyang and the release of Seth Rogen's new comedy The Interview, the North Korean National Defence Commission levelled a racist insult at President Barack Obama for "forcing" movie theatres to carry the film.
"Obama always goes reckless in words and deeds like a monkey in a tropical forest," the commission, which is chaired by Kim Jong-un, declared.
There was no response from the White House.
The commission also blamed Obama for disruptions in North Korea's Internet connections.
This came after the U.S. president had promised to take action in response to the hacking of Sony Pictures' email system.
The FBI has already blamed North Korea for these cyberattacks.
However, a New York Times report has questioned whether North Korea was responsible for the hack, suggesting that it could have been an inside job or may have been perpetrated by Russians.

If the FBI says so it must be true. They always tell the truth.

What's racist is that "monkey" is automatically assumed to refer to black people by the western press.

Why thank you Mr. Kim. I am the representative of the monkey kingdom and we are honoured to be compared to such a competent man. Among the monkeys, you see, Obama has a reputation of being smart whereas you have a reputation of being stupid.

If someone made a movie about killing all black people---well, they wouldn't, that would be racist.
Why is it OK to make a movie about killing a single individual, not OK to make a movie about killing a race? Genocide is worse than murder? Genocide is simply a lot of individual acts of murder.
