Well here goes.
This is a continuation of the last blog.
Many thanks go to the Secretary of State and the State Dept. for standing by the endangered American citizen when gaining the release of the 2 journalists from the N. Korean gulag. Since that day of release the press has really gone to town saying that this act jeopardizes our political relationship with the N. Korean regime. EEEE Gods, what kind of a relationship can we possible have with the N. Korean Regime that is more important than saving these people's lives? N. Korea is an abusers' paradise where they can do whatever they want, especially the men; and they probably do. We do not know what may have happened to our citizens and we may never know, but they do appear fairly well intact. I, for one, stand by the principle that an endangered citizen being held in a foreign land should be a top priority because it demonstrates that we do take care of our citizens. It seems like many in the Press are all too willing to play pawn politics with "our" lives for "their" gain. If it is not good for the endangered person, it is not good. The pawn politics certainly sent a lot of missiles into the air and 1 detonated nuclear device under the earth. I think the politics of release is a much wiser way to go.
These are my thoughts for today.
