I worked on military exercises dealing with this possibility, we are plenty ready.

There was a program on the BBC in the UK last night about a reporter who recently went to N.Korea. We saw pictures of hospitals empty, farms with no animals, people scavenging, poverty, factories not producing, queues, power cuts and street children.

There was plenty of glittering statues of dead leaders and the military.

How can we help the people of N Korea get out of this terrible mess they have found themselves in.

I don't see how we can help at all. The people are in such a mess because of the leadership there, and I don't see that changing any time soon.

One day it will be revealed that North Korea has been the greatest nation of horror the world has ever known, worst in its own way because the horror has been perpetrated on its own population.

 

[I love Justice]

I hate North Korea

I hate North Korea

Well, I wouldn't go that far.....

Honestly, the situation hasn't died down any, but their leader is hot-headed and young, so this may just be a phase or something. He probably just wants to prove his dominance over his Generals and officers.

 

[LogicDreamer]

The only threat North Korea poses is to itself. The nation has an underfed, outdated military with absolutely no skill in war.

Imagine they launch a nuclear missile, and it gives up in air and drops back down on them.

You exercise un-Christian behavior if you wish death upon North Korea's innocent population.

 

[I Eat Pie]

You show me where I wished death on them.

I think the major problem also, is that the people of N. Korea are brainwashed from the day they're born to believe that their leader is deity. This makes them fiercely defend their government(god) without question, despite the situation they might be in.

 

[I Eat Pie]

Idk Metal. I think they know but are too scared to say anything because of fear of death.

I recently saw a documentary on the N. Korean people, and they even believe that the food drops we give them, are us paying homage to their leader. This is another lie perpetrated by their government.

I saw one of one of the Docors Without Borders doing eye surgery on an old woman, and at the end, she thanked the great leader for it. It's sad.

Exactly. As long as the people see their leader as deity, they will never rise against him or try to better their poverty.

Do you think it's our place to get involved?

 

[Metal Minister]

Do you think it's our place to get involved?

Unfortunately, not directly. All we can/should do is offer aid to the people, and hope and pray they will come around. Military action will only hurt the innocent civilians as, like what Japan was prepared to do, they would put themselves between our military and their government.

 

[I Eat Pie]

Ah ok... I think we have enough problems already. I'd rather let China pick up a gun or write a check for once.

That's not going to happen. China doesn't have a tenth the charity America has....
