Hmmm......
You cant erase what is happening, or has happened in North Korea. How their people are treated, or indoctrinated.
Freedom is never voluntarily given by the oppressor; it must be demanded by the oppressed. ~ Martin Luther King, Jr.
This goes for ALL oppressed.
It's the NK sabre-rattling, threats to innocents and defiant attitude that brought about international sanctions on them in the first place and their leaders appear to enjoy the 'bad boy' reputation.
Huh, the potential of war in Asia is globally important, who would have thought.

You mean "above" the 38th parallel.
Get it right. NK is above the 38th parallel. SK is below it.

I don't play NORTH and SOUTH, the way you want me too. Its ALL Korea. The sooner the US is out of there the lesser the threat of Americans dying in another useless war for "American Interests". Or the risk of wider conflict with the Chinese or Russians. It is their continent after all, you think they'd mind?
But I expect little "peace mongering" from here.

No, we occupy the South. The Ultimate "Sanction". Taking half a country away from some nation. Its called "Divide and Conquer".

North and South America......its all the same?
They, yes THEY do NOT like the idea of being ruled by a dictator. They, the S. Koreans do NOT want to live under NK rule. Period.
You actually WANT to see a lot of innocent, freedom loving people get slaughtered?
Would love to see the US get the hell out of EVERY area they are in, but we know that wont happen.
