And I will grant that it is true that the regime mob in North Korea cannot be trusted, and occasionally appear, if not completely whacked out, at least to have a very tenous grasp on reality. But, while the Americans continue to play their games, another million children mob might die of starvation in mob the North when the next famine hits. Sure, it's the fault of Kim Il Sung and his cartoonish son and the government they created. But if there were an opportunity to hasten its demise, or at least soften its hardline, and prevent those deaths, and it were so clearly within their power, don't you think the Americans could at least give it a shot? No, of course not. Foolish of me to think that, dreamer that I am. A brief summary : with the blessings of the previous US Administration, Kim Dae Jung (who I repeat, for the benefit of those who have started following all this recently, has been referred to as the "Asian Nelson Mandela" and has received the Nobel Peace Prize in 2000 for his 'sunshine policy' in attempting to end the 50-year war between North and South Korea) embarked on a mission over the first 4 years of his presidency to open a dialogue with North Korea.
