Americans can't really handle the truth, the enormity of the truth. - Brian Reynolds Myers

Communism is all about breaking down nationalism, about uniting workers around the world, and North Korea has always been about the opposite, it’s been about racial purity and pride, so remember North Korea was isolated even inside the old east-block, even inside the Soviet block.

The Korean people have always been more outward-looking than their insecure leaders, and for centuries this was especially true of those in the northern part of the peninsula.

North Korea is looking more and more like a poor man's version of South Korea.
