Hot Air<\/a> reported that President Jimmy Carter has made a visit to North Korea.  He made a few interesting statements about his trip–accusing the United States of human rights violations.  Please follow the link to the article and watch the video–it is amazing that one man could be so naive.<\/p>\n

“Kim (Jong-Il) <\/em>wouldn’t meet with them<\/em><\/a>, incidentally, for reasons I don’t understand. When you have a former U.S. president willing to carry your water, hand him a bucket. Instead, Kim sent them a message saying he’d be willing to meet with <\/em>either South Korea or the U.S.<\/em><\/a> to talk disarmament and any matters — like, say, food for the population, which may or may not be suffering an <\/em>unusually harsh famine<\/em><\/a> right now due to a bad winter. In theory, that would increase American leverage over Kim: The more desperately he needs food, the more willing he’ll be to make concessions to get it. But now that we’ve got this choice soundbite from an Absolute Moral Authority like Carter suggesting that other countries have a right to be fed by us without preconditions, well, who knows. Besides, after all the North <\/em>has done for them lately<\/em><\/a>, South Korea practically owes them, no?”<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Does anyone remember why North Korea has a food shortage?  Does anyone remember the promises to use their nuclear program for peaceful purposes only?  I don’t doubt that the people in North Korea are starving.  I do wonder if the United States sent food to that country, if the average citizen would ever see it.  North Korea has become a major exporter of nuclear technology and nuclear equipment–not necessarily used for peaceful purposes.  If they choose to export those things, shouldn’t the countries they are exporting them to supply them with food in exchange?  Why in the world should we feed an army that is planning to destroy us?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
