This is the sort of thing the US should be helping stop, not some bullshit "nation building" in Afghanistan or whatever they're still doing in the middle east. |
It is interesting when you look at all the conflicts around the world. The U.S. and other U.N. countries were willing to get involved in the Lybia conflict while far worse things take place in North Korea. I think the main problem is the U.N. nations don't want to get involved in a situation like North Korea's due to the amount of resources, sacrifice, and potential threats that situation would pose.
I'm not trying to suggest we need to immediately go all out invasion to free those people, but the situation in N. Korea should make one question why we are so quick to get into conflicts such as Lybia but don't really want to even think about what could be done to help the people in N. Korea. This was the point of my thread to really show what actually goes on in that country and that pretty much nothing is being done about it, nor does it look like anything will in the near future.

The problem with North Korea is that the country has a huge army, and wmds.

Ya their military size as well as nuclear abilities and also the uncertainty of how China would react are large deterants.
