1. Complete and total quarantine, enforced by naval patrols and air power. Nothing goes in or out. Financial as well.
2. Air drop military equipment (rations, small arms, ammo, RPGs, etc.) throughout the countryside so those who want to fight, can.
3. Drop leaflets telling the people to rise up and fight - they will be supported with #2 above.
If Obozo can assist with the “Arab Spring” then the next president can assist with the liberation of NK.

North Korea's rulers brutalize their people with unparalleled and bloody barbarity.

The barbarians on the other end of The Won's Blackberry plan to do the same to us.

Remember, they have previously expressed a willingness to send 1-in-8 of us to the ovens - and not a pastry chefs.

“Conquer the doggone place....”

Well, yeah, that would solve the problem. Wait! China and Russia would jump to its defense. Would that war be called WW3?

“So why aren’t international bodies like the UN and Amnesty raising hell about these atrocities?”

Because the UN is controlled by China and Russia.

Let their neighbors deal with the problem. We could air drop radios, food, and small guns and stop feeding the govt. I wouldn’t do much more than that.

I am very much in favor of a free North Korea, but it’s not as simple as that. I think liberating NK would be no problem for our military. Then what? Is the US or UN going to be committed to a Marshall Plan that will rebuild and retrain North Koreans to be competitive in the world economy?

NK has a GDP behind interior African countries. The GDP per person—something we really don’t know because the country is so closed—is estimated to be $1,800 (US is $48,000)—behind countries like Senegal, Ghana, and East Timor.

We don’t know how many people are imprisoned in the camps in Korea, but they estimate it’s a couple hundred thousand. Of those, only the fortunate ones are even schooled long enough to learn read and write.

The fellow in this book is an exceptional person who escaped from these camps, and he has had tremendous difficulties in finding and holding a job and supporting himself. What do you do with a whole nation of these people?

Your far too kind....IMHO these atrocities are “professional courtesy” .....and are tolerated by leftists in general who would, if they could, universally apply them to all central government resistance.

We have a Korean woman who is studying English staying with us right now. I really didn’t realize how geographically isolated Korea was, and how vulnerable it makes Koreans feel. They first met westerners only about 100 years ago, because they had been blocked by the Chinese on land and at sea. Then, the Japanese became colonial powers over China and Korea and came in with the first modern technology, about in the 1930s. Briefly, after Japan’s defeat, Korea was free, and then it’s been war ever since. And yet it has become a developed country. Think of all the countries that have been independent only since the mid-20th Century. How many of them have done what Korea has done?

I used to think it was not fair of the South Koreans to sit there in prosperity and not do more to liberate the North. Now I see better how fragile their position is. They have an amazing country in a terrible location. They may not be able to do much to liberate North Korea until the next time China falls apart. And then they will have a job much worse than knitting together East and West Germany.

Never forget this type of evil lays just beneath the surface of every hard left progressive...

Remove the rule of law and replace with the rule of a single madman...

Depravity has no limits

Obama and his fellow travelers are well capabale of lowering themselves to this level to acheive their goals

[[ Under a demented doctrine laid down by Kim Il Sung, the communist tyrant who founded North Korea, “enemies of class … must be eliminated through three generations.” ]]

The left would do the same right -here-, if they could.

Is it just me or do Asians seem to have a special penchant for brutality?

It's just you. The Germans, Russians, Turks, Romanians, Serbs, Croats, and dozens of other ethnicities are just as susceptible to it. We all are.

At the age of six, Shin was forced to watch as one of his classmates -- a short, slight, pretty girl -- was beaten to death by their teacher when he discovered five kernels of corn in her pocket.

I'm reminded of Chelsea Clinton's idiotic remark when visiting Africa that "we have poor people too." No, we don't have poor people like this.

We don’t do anything. Enable the people to overthrow the regime, then let SK give them aid and assistance to rebuild.

At any time NK can shell Seoul into oblivion. There’s no obvious solution.
