JFShepard, > I asked a question earlier which inquired why SK and Japan didn't seem nearly as concerned about NK as American RWnuts are... The key word is "seem." Of course they're concerned about North Korea. They had to be throughout all of modern history. It's like saying Californians don't seem nearly as concerned about earthquakes, especially The Big One. The refugee problem you cite is just one of many concerns. You are also correct in saying that Japan and South Korea are less concerned about terrorism than America is, despite the beheading of the Korean missionary (though that was done by Muslims) and the kidnapping of Japanese citizens by NK agents. As for North Korea not being suicidal, I'm not sure what that's supposed to mean. There are people out there who would threaten to commit suicide just to get attention. Reminds me of the Chinese dude who pushed a would-be jumper off a bridge: washingtonpost.com > "I pushed him off because jumpers like Chen are very selfish. Their action violates a lot of public interests," Lai was quoted as saying by the China Daily newspaper. > "They do not really dare to kill themselves. Instead, they just want to raise the relevant government authorities' attention to their appeals." Tenchusatsu
