I kind of feel the same way. The fact that this regime has been allowed to oppress their own people for this long and the world has known all along, is disgraceful. People looked back at the Holocaust and proclaimed that they would have done something sooner if they had knows. Well NK has modern day concentration camps going on and a terrible human rights record. Someone has to do something.

However on other side of the fence l can understand why nothing is being done. They have nuclear capabilities. The loss of life from another Korean war would be catastrophic. But at some point, the world has to ask itself if it's worth letting 24 million people be oppressed by a few, so as not to ignite another conflict. The real travesty is how the NK people suffer, and for the most part have no clue how the rest of the world operates.

It's a tough situation. But I honestly think that in very short order, military action will be taken against the North. And sadly, its' going to be bloody and catastrophic for all involved.
