Take a look at a satellite picture of the peninsula by night: South Korea ablaze in electric light, the North in darkness. In Far East Asia, North Korea’s the hole in the doughnut.

North Korea at Night
Quite a contrast illustrated there, N. Korea vs S. Korea, huh ?Like Kerry, N. Korea is working in the dark.
Oh, yeah. Mark Steyn has a way with words. I like most of his articles I've seen.
... It's really kind of sad, when you think of the people who live there!!It really is. My sister-in-law told me a few years ago that she had gone to Korea and it really is sad. She told me about the starving kids there. It is inhumane what the N. Korean Communists have done there.
I read an article just a few minutes ago about a letter of criticism that Amnesty International sent regarding the death penalty given to John Allen Muhammad for the Beltway Sniper murders. I wonder if they have ever weighed in on atrocities that N. Korea has committed ? Or Saddam Hussein ? Or Al-Qaeda ? Or any other of the mass murderers in the world ? ...
Amnesty International USA Statement on
Sentencing John Allen Muhammad to Death
s/b she had gone to NORTH Korea ...
I'm surprised your sister in law was even able to get into North Korea! Remember a year or so ago when they opened the border and let relatives see each other for the first time in years?
As I recall, I think it was years ago when she worked for the 'Vice-Mayor' of Shenyang, in mainland China. She doesn't work for them anymore now that she has been in the U.S. for 8 years and has her permanent residency now.
The two China's hate each other. When the Kumantang (sp?) left Mainland China and went to Formosa. It's now called Taiwan. Mainland China keeps rattling their swords at Taiwan and the U.S. takes sides with Taiwan. Rightfully so too, imho. The Mainland Communists have killed so many innocents over the last 55 years ...
