However, many useful idiots have projected their misguided wish into N. Korean regime, hoping that this time it would be different. N. Korean regime benefited handsomely from such recurring delusion. The only thing they have to do is to pretend they are changing. They know that outsiders buy it at the first hint of such gesture.
Oh yes. I read such idiotic commentary about “wishful thinking” about this “new generation of North Korean leadership” coming out of the New York Times, Washington Post, and other such drivel, at the time of Kim Jon Un’s immaculation. They fall for the same thing every time, hook, line and sinker. (But, being as close to Red as you can get, well, maybe they WANT to fall for this “wishful thinking” about the corrupt and hopelessly evil, dynastic “DPRK”).
