For decades, North Korea has harmed the citizens of its country and imprisoned people for their beliefs and ideologies, including foreigners coming in for missionary/reporting work. Countless people have been killed with the reason being utter nonsense almost all the time. It is a horrible place to live (is ranked the #1 worst place to live for Christians in the world according to at least one human rights violater tracker), the citizens are brainwashed into thinking their current Kim leader is a god (just like they were to the prior ones), and even the citizens not stuck in concentration camps are suffering in almost incomprehensible conditions for an 'industrialized' country. What is going on in North Korea is, and has been, horrible, but it apparently is not the business of the west (due to it being mostly an internal affair).
Now, they have damaged something of the west. Attacking Sony the way they did was a "manifestation of a new form of warfare when you destroy economies, when you are able to impose censorship," McCain, a Republican from Arizona, said. "It's more than vandalism. It's a new form of warfare that we're involved in and we need to react and we need to react vigorously."
I'm not going to express my personal thought in this discussion opener, but I'm just curious what everyone here's thoughts are. I mean this to be a serious discussion and not one filled with trolls. How bad is this situation and what should the West do in response?
