Hackers take control of North Korea's official Twitter and Flickr accounts and brand Kim Jong Un a pigActivists from the Anonymous group are believed to be behind cyber attack
Tweets on North Korea's official Twitter account said 'Hacked'
Flickr page showed image of Kim as a pig with Mickey Mouse on his chest The mocked-up Wanted poster included a $1million 'bounty' on Kim
Hackers posted a picture of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un portrayed as a pig on the country's official flickr account today.
The account and the official Uriminzokkiri Twitter account were apparently hacked today as tensions in the Korean Peninsula continued to rise.
The North’s Uriminzokkiri Twitter and Flickr accounts stopped sending out content typical of that posted by the regime in Pyongyang, such as photos of North’s leader Kim Jong Un meeting with military officials.

Have you seen the propaganda flicks out of North Korea? I think their animation and motion graphics programs need new instructors. Something tells me that their version of new posters to make fun of our leaders would make Dear Leader feel worse ..not better.
Poor guy just can't catch a break some days, can he? Lets all have it now.. One big collective .."awwwwwwww.."
(tries to maintain composure.....fails... )

It is not enough that the West has massive war games and increased sanctions, now we have to make fun of the guy as well. Wars have been started on less than this.
I think he should get his best artists to do some of all the Western Leaders. POTUS, The Queen, all the Prime Ministers and Presidents. He could have some fun.
I hope he has a sense of humor!

I think this is irresponsible. It's akin to poking a hornet's nest with a stick.

So NK can produce thousands of hours of totally ridiculous anti-US propaganda films containing nothing but complete fabrication, yet once again NK is somehow the victim because some hackers posted a funny pig faced kimmy.
How ridiculous, I'll never understand the mentality of some people

For heavens sake, lighten up!
If someone is angry at you with steam coming out of their ears, are you going to continue to stir them up. I suppose it is OK if you're the one with the 45 in your belt.
It is a fun pic and at the same time it is serious. All of their propaganda is for home consumption and is about as accurate as the MSM reports on NK.

I doubt if many from the west will recognise that 'pig' caricature.
That dressed up pig came from a story during the Tang Dynasty - Journey to the West. Its about the adventures of a chinese buddhist monk who teamed with a monkey with super-powers, a water demon and lusty bumbling pig as his protectors under orders by Buddha to serve as redemption from the sins, to make that journey to India to receive the buddhist scriptures and bring enlightenment back to China.
Zhu Bajie is a complex and developed character in the novel. He looks like a terrible monster, part human and part pig, who often gets himself and his companions into trouble through his laziness, gluttony, and propensity for lusting after pretty women.
Pigsy, a pig monster consumed with lust and gluttony, who was expelled from Heaven after harassing the Star Princess Vega—the Jade Emperor's mistress—for a kiss.
Those hackers must at least know something about Chinese history to portray Fatboy as that tale's character,
