U.N. report will conclude North Korea has committed crimes against humanity

Setting the Far East stage for WWIII...

SEOUL — A yearlong United Nations investigation is set to conclude that North Korea has committed crimes against humanity, according to a leaked outline of the report, in the most authoritative indictment to date of abuses carried out by Pyongyang’s leaders.

The U.N. panel will also recommend that the North’s crimes be referred to the International Criminal Court in The Hague, according to The Associated Press, which obtained an outline of the findings. The report of the three-member Commission of Inquiry will be released Monday.

By establishing that panel, the U.N. has sought to take aim at one of its most distressing challenges, a nation whose abuses are carried out by an entrenched family-run government that faces almost no threat of international intervention.
