I swear when international journalists walk through those DPRK political prison camps when they are finally opened to the world, and hear the stories, and see the human bones and the crematoriums (confirmed by satellite photos), what are those libs going to say? It is going to be like Edward R. Murrow walking through Buchenwald.

And what is most shameful is our prior President, beating his chest about that horrible 'Axis of Evil', consisting of Iraq, Iran and North Korea, chose to do NOTHING about the murderous regime in Pyongyang when he had the opportunities (and there were many!), instead George W. Bush sold the North Korean people up the river by choosing to 'engage' the KJL dictatorship with the absurd 'Six Party Talks' that have produced absolutely NOTHING except for a nuclear capable North Korea.

And of course Iran too, is on the brink of obtaining a nuclear device, although George W. Bush proclaimed in December 2008 that America "would not permit" Iran to acquire a nuclear capability.

As the old saying goes, "it's easy to talk the talk, but can you walk the walk?"

And in this instance, the ones who will suffer for all that talking are the North Korean people.

Yes, sadly too. GWB also did no good for this cause of freedom in North Korea in the last 2 to 2.5 years of his Administration. It (with Chris Hill at State at the helm) became virtually indistinguishable from Madeline Albright and Bill Clinton. I am afraid, not a soul on FR can challenge us on this historic point, mkj. This is where history will not be kind to "W" IMHO. We wrote about it at so much length on the FR threads about North Korean from two, three years back, didn't we.

Are we required to give a damn about North Korea?

“And what is most shameful is our prior President, beating his chest about that horrible ‘Axis of Evil’, consisting of Iraq, Iran and North Korea, chose to do NOTHING about the murderous regime in Pyongyang when he had the opportunities”

And what was he supposed to do?

By banning luxury items from being imported into NK he attacked Kim’s power base. The elite that enjoy the fruits of the west on the backs of the serfs.

Your army is tied up in Iraq and the war did not go the way the neocons anticipated, and you want GWB go after North Korea??!!!! Now our army will be tied up in Afghanistan, and how are we going to take on the North Koreans???!!!! China who does not want a US ally up on her border (via a unified Korea dominated by South Korea) will simply say to US no more purchases of T Bills, if we attempted a move with South Korea. My prediction is there will be a revolt in North Korea, the Kim family will be removed or reduced to placate the mob and a committee of North Korean generals will run the country backed by China. China will transform North Korea into an adjunct szcerin. Unfortunately the North Korean rebels will be rounded up and shot to restore order.

They will blather and spin about how they "tried" and it was their "efforts" that inspired the "freedom fighters."

I O W they will attempt to take the credit, just as little ZerØ is "finishing the job" in Afghanistan.

All libs/communists think in similar (stupid) terms which to me indicates they are mentally and thus morally defective.
