U.N. Reports Says North Korea has Stolen $2 Billion from Banks and Cyberattacks
The Kim regime steals $2 billion and yet they supposedly don’t have enough money to buy food for their own people. When are the North Korea apologists going to realize that the Kim regime wants to keep a portion of their population poor and undernourished:
United Nations (United States) (AFP) – North Korea has stolen up to $2 billion from banks and cryptocurrency exchanges through cyberattacks to fund its nuclear missiles program, according to a United Nations report seen by AFP Wednesday.
The UN is investigating at least 35 reported instances of Pyongyang “attacking financial institutions, cryptocurrency exchanges and mining activity designed to earn foreign currency,” it said.
“Large-scale attacks against cryptocurrency exchanges allow the DPRK to generate income in ways that are harder to trace and subject to less government insight and regulation than the traditional banking sector,” the report added.

Shut off their internet?
Pretty easy to do actually, and in ways that make it “nobodies” fault.
There are South Koreans–and others–who applaud North Korea defrauding (literally robbing) people.
I pity such people. Their shriveled, crippled, blackened souls will never see heaven.
Getting 2bn USD is pretty impressive stealing. Well done Fatty.
