My next guess is they will start to take up the cause of North Korea. They will have a problem, because North Korea will be much, much more suspect about letting ANY westerners in to propagandize and 'shield'.
The phenomenon here will be the same as seen in many other countries.
The leftists are full of shit when they say they are interested in "the people of _______". They only want to donate time and money and assist through official channels when the people live under oppression. When they are finally freed from oppression, as in Nicaragua, these do gooders just leave for another destination.
THEY HAVE NO INTEREST IN HELPING 'THE PEOPLE' IN COUNTRIES THAT HAVE LEFT TYRANNY UNDER U.S. ASSISTANCE
What a bunch of phonies! They just used the Iraqi people as tools for their political points. They could not care less. They will NEVER stay behind and keep assisting the Iraqi people through aid and development programs under a US interim administration.
"Oppressed people" are only players in their own dramas. I tell you, they care NOTHING about the tortures inflicted by Saddam on his people. Their only care is when the malevolent U.S. intervenes to impose its power on these oppressed "people of color."
I am not kidding, it is this seriously delusional.
It is for this reason that I came to the conclusion that leftist/liberalism is a mental illness. It is a NEED to be adverserial. It masks great anger. No entity can live up to the standards which they impose ON OTHERS.
It is a way of avoiding looking at themselves.
Right about now, the useful idiots are looking for a new cause to champion, and North Korea is looking for useful idiots to champion their cause in the West.
The usual socialist suspects will suddenly discover that two million North Koreans have died of famine, almost all the rest are barely living as it is, and guess who's to blame for the suffering of the innocent women and children of North Korea?
More like an incurable disease.
