Respect North Korea

[Jong Il]

We Americans should realize that North Koreans, too, have a right to be proud of their country.

How arrogant and hypocritical it is for us to accuse the DPRK of "blackmail" and being a "nuclear threat" when we, with no provocation, are openly threatening them with nuclear attack. How is it that we have the right to have thousands of warheads and they aren't allowed to have any? Ne, an kurolkkoeyo. Were we really dumb enough to think that we as a superpower were put in imminent danger by them. The DPRK has the right to defend itself and if we really have the nerve to attack them for nothing, I sure hope they do.

How dare we threaten them over human rights, when what we did to them during the Korean War, killing millions of civilians with bombs and chemical and biological weapons, was every bit as bad. What is really shameful is this attitude we seem to have that these innocent people were somehow worth less than our soldiers who died (or that the war excuses our troops from crimes in South Korea).

North Korea wanted and deserved for us to leave them alone. It's time we treated them with respect instead of hostility. Otherwise watch out, because what goes around comes around. Things must be resolved with a spirit of peaceful cooperation.

Peace is a joke what has ever really been achieved by it? Did America gain independance through peace? Hell we sure didnt expand our nation through peace nor has any country. You, like many liberal Americans need to experiance the harsh slap of reality. Nothing is gained by peace because humans are not some kind of higher benvolent beings.

We are animals and animals fight and kill to protect there own its just the way it is, no matter how hard you try to deny it history have proven that point over and over again. If your a real American like you say you would back the USA just because of the possible threat from North Koreas nuclear asronal, at the very least we know they have one nuke. But the problem is your NOT an American because you hold alligance to your former homeland.

ForceFedHate - are you still at it? You show ignorance to events outside your own country by not recognizing the name 'Jong-Il'.

Listen, this poster is right. How can America be threatened by the DPRK? For decades America was threatened by the prospect of thousands of Soviet weapons raining down upon its soil. America developed missiles to shoot down the missiles by the hundreds at a time. Now America is shaking it her boots because the DPRK has what - maybe ONE missile? If anything, America is the hostile nation here. Look at some recent government spending on the Korean Peninsula (though I had to dig to find it): the US has put aside some $9billion of new spending - new spending! - for various things INCLUDING artillery nuclear weapons by 2006. Just baby weapons, but nuclear nonetheless. Apparently, that Anti-Proliferation treaty doesn't apply because they are so 'small.'

After WWII, Russia took the extraordinary steps of swallowing up nearly all the countries on its borders in order to protect itself and look where it got her. Anyone remember that saying about those not looking at history something something something?

[ForceFedHate]

You missed my point entirely, their not being a threat now is inconsquental, its the PROTENTAL that we are worried about here. Thats all that should matter, protecting our own. As I have said history bears this point out over and over, time and time again, say what you will but might makes right its a fact of life get used to it. Or get ground up in the gears of western expansonism.

[ForceFedHate]

Besides your not even American so why I am responding to you I have no clue.

Gee, man, the potential threat is what I'm talking about also! I'll bet you can count the number of WMDs that the DPRK has on one hand, America has thousands. Don't you think that they're just responding to a potential threat also? While I agree that America should definitely stay (for the time being) in Korea, I do think that there is a peaceful resolution to this.

'Might makes right'? Well, China happens to have a standing army of what - a billion? Guess that makes them right, eh?

And once again, no, I am not an American. I am Canadian and have a bird's eye, through-the-window look at America. I am outside the influence of the American media and thankful for it. Your nationality, ForceFedHate, matters not one whit to me and am confused about why mine should matter to you.
