North Korea

I think that it is best for the U.S to not get involved with North Korea. First of all, how can we help a country that wants nothing to do with us, and, as seen in the video, wants to kill off all Americans from the face of the world? You can only help someone when they are willing to get help, and the North Koreans definitely do not want our help. They see us as imperialists and hold us responsible for the splitting of Korea. Also, I do not think that North Korea is our responsibility. It may be selfish to not do anything when it’s obviously apparent that the country is struggling on simple matter such as nutrition and health, but sometimes we need to focus on ourselves and not involve ourselves on matter that may cause problems for everyone. If the North Korean citizens ever ask for our help to save their country, and not just because it is an order from Kim Jung Il, I hope that the U.S will be there to answer their call. For now, I think it’s best to monitor Kim Jung Il closely, keeping him from driving the country into the ground even more, and to hope for the people to open their eyes to reality.

I agree we cant help a country who doesnt want our help. There is nothing we can do to help their problems if they dont want us around.

I agree with you. Getting food and health would be not so hard. They would need to accept what to give back to who they are communicating with that they hurt. Their feeling towards the United States has a strong dislike to the United States. Looking at North Korea provides us to see if we would have to take action or not towards North Korea. We would have to let them express themselves.

I agree that we cannot help a country that wishes to be left alone. Trying to help them when we are uninvited, would only cause more problems. It is best to only monitor their behavior for now to avoid an international crisis.
