Why Does Any American Visit N. Korea?

The choice to visit North  Korea is just plain dumb if you are a citizen of the Unitd States not wearing bomber pilot gear. Techincally they are still at war with us. The most recent case is that of young Mr. Wambier who returned as a vegetable after 17 months in capitivity for alledgedly stealing a poster.

North Korea had the opportunity to torture and experiment technique on an American. He has brain damage and is in a comatose waking state. I knew a kid being raised by some Christian friends who was is a similar condition long ago. They spent years and years trying to figure out what had happened to put the kid into such a state (he was adopted). He coundn't talk or say anything and acted just vacant though capable of walking.

Those sorts of mysteries happen in the custody of enemies sometimes. One needs to learn not to visit a store with hostile employees-its their turf and things can go wrong there. So much more do people need to learn not to visit hostile nations without expecting the likelihood of somethingn going very wrong.

Donald Trump also seems willing to patronize N.Korea and toelerate the expansion of their nuclear force until it can hist Anchorage and San Francisco. N. Korea seems to have Seol South Korea as an artillery and nuclear hostage. That is a tough position to play.
