Korea

The Korean Peninsula is a place with tons of wonderful people and an unique history.
North and South Korea's contentious problems span way before 2009. Each nation have a
common history, but they are divided into 2 countries for ideological (and political
reasons). Kim Jong Il's extremism has been exposed for all to witness. King Jong Il runs
North Korea with an iron fist. Typically, torturous prisons transpire in North Korea that can
house even innocent citizens of North Korea. There are religious liberty suppression in
that nation. Christians, Buddhists, and other non-atheists on a regular basis risk lives in
order to just peacefully express the dictates of their personal faiths. Some Christians
and other religious people have been assaulted, murdered, and killed, because of
their religious creed. That's barbaric and immoral of course. The history of Korea
stretches from the Lower Paleolithic times to the present. There were pottery
in the ancient times inside the area of Korea. The Bronze Age came about in
Korea during 2,500 B.C. According to the Samguk Yusa and other Korean
medieval era records, the Gojoseon (or the Old Joseon) kingdom was said to
be created in ca. 2333 B.C. It spread from the peninsula to much of Manchuria.
In the time of Jesus Christ, there were the Three Kingdoms (Goguryeo, Silla, and
Baekje) conquered other successor states of Gojoseon and came to dominate
the peninsula and much of Manchuria. The three kingdoms competed with
each other both economically and militarily. Goguryeo and Baekje were more
powerful for much of the era. Goguryeo even defeated massive Chinese
invasions. The Silla Kingdom ruled most of the Korean peninsula by 676 A.D.
The Korean Empire lasted from 1897 until 1910. The Japanese imperalists rule
Korea from 1910 until 1945. Korea repelled Japanese invasions between 1592
to 1598. Beginning in the 1870s, Japan began to force Korea out of China's
sphere of influence into its own. In 1895, Empress Myeongseong was assassinated
by Japanese agents. In 1910 Japan effectively annexed Korea by the Japan-Korea
Annexation Treaty. Korea didn't respect the legality of the treaty. The reason was
that it was not signed by the Emperor of Korea as required and it violated the
international convention on external pressures regarding treaties. Japan used
a puppet Governor General of Korea to rule Korea until Japan's unconditional
surrender to the Allied Forces existed on August 15, 1945. The Provisional
Government of the Republic of Korea immediately ruled Korea after WWII.
European-styled transport and communication networks developed in Korea.
More modernization occurred as well in Korea. On September 8, 1945, America
occupied southern Korea and the Soviet Union occurred the northern part of Korea.
The border was the 38th parallel. At first, the division was though to be
temporary until an unified Korea would be agreed upon (by America, the UK,
the Soviets, and China). No solution was done until September 1947 when the
United States submitted the Korean question to the UN General Assembly. Cold
War politics evaporated any hope of a unified Korea. In 1948, North and South
Korean nations were established.

The Korean War occurred, because of many factors. The Communists made China
their country by the late 1940's. The U.S. made political discussions about China more
of a reality. Traid Chaing Kai-shek successed him. Kai-Shek battled later against the
Communists for China. Mao hated Christianity since a missionary rejected him for
being Chinese. Mao's mentor was Li Tachao who had ties with the Red Spears Secret
Society. Li Ch'i-han was a early Communist and leader of the Green Gang Secret
Society. This following history relates to the Chinese Revolution of the 1900's. High
level State Department officials, such as Harry Dexter White and Owen Lattimore, use
false documents to promote the Communists. In fact the West encouraged Mao to rule
China since they accused Chiang of being a dictator. Communist leader Mao won by
1950 sending Chiang (who Western supplies to him came later) to Taiwan. Other pro-
Chiang forces became the KMT working with the CIA in the Golden Triangle.

Harry Truman publicly condemned the Chinese because of political disagreements. Harry
Truman wanted to develop a cohesion foreign policy in dealing with the Soviet Union and
the Communists the world over in the late 1940's to the early 1950's. In January of
1950, Truman asked the National Security Council to investigate what
America's new security and defense policy should be. In other words, Truman
wanted to decipher the best means to engage his foreign policy. That answer
was the controversial NSC-68 document. NSC stands for National Security Council. It was
issued in April 14, 1950, yet it was only declassified by 1975. Truman signed it on
September 30, 1950. It was one of the most important documents of the Cold War. This
document painted a different picture than the scholar George F. Keenan wanted. Keenan
resigned in December of 1949 as director of policy planning, since he though that the
Truman administration was becoming too hawkish on the Cold War. Keenan focused more
on containment to gradually end the influence of the Soviet Union instead of having
blatant military confrontation. NSC-68 was a document that had paranoia about
the Soviet Union having dreams of world domination and that us Americans
need to stop them (even militarily if we have to). NSC-68 was created by famous
people like Paul Nitze, who was ironically a successor to Keenan. The document pained a
gloomy picture of U.S.-Soviet relations since it views the Soviets as America's mortal
enemy. NSC-68 like the PNAC Document opposed military isolationism and wanted
America's military to be built up including other countries (This includes aiding the
Western Hemisphere militarily, have a mobilization base, have offensive operation to
counterbalance the Soviet Union's war making capacity, defend lines of communications,
and other proposals). Keenan reject militarization as a means to engage the Cold War and
he even opposed the use of the Hydrogen Bomb. Stalin received a copy of NSC-68 via the
spy Donald Duart Maclean (whose code name was Homer).

He was apart of the Cambridge Five Spy network. The Cambridge Spy network claimed to
be anti-fascist, so they sent sensitive information into the Soviet Union. Korea was a big
deal in foreign policy since they are very near to Russia and China. Korea was always
under the influence of other nations. The U.S. didn't have much interest in Korea in the
beginning. In 1910, an already militarily occupied Korea was a forced party to the Japan-
Korea Annexation Treaty. The treaty was signed by Lee Wan-Yong, who was given the
General Power of Attorney by the Emperor. During WWII, Japan ruled Korea in
imperalism. After Japan was defeated, the Soviet Union wanted to annex Korea. Even
before WWII, Korea was discussed. The Postdam Conference considered the eventual
division of Korea. British Prime Minister Winston Churchill, Chinese Generalissimo Chiang
Kai-shek and U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt had stated a determination for Korean
independence and freedom at the Cairo Conference. The Yalta Conference of Febraury
1945, Stalin wanted Russia to have preeminence in China. In 1945, the USSR and
America agreed the dividing line of Communists and non-Communists on the 38th
Parallel. There was the Democratic People's Republic of Korea in North Korea (head by
Kim Il Sung) and the People's Republic of Korea (headed by Syngman Rhee in August 15,
1948). Both men acted as dictators. There were riots, clashes, and chaos in
South Korea. Rhee even won't listen to America. Rhee used harsh military
action against the Jeju uprising. The Republic of Korea was recognized by the United
Nations via its Resolution 195 on December 12, 1948. American and Russia withdraw their
occupation of Korea. Both Rhee and Sung wanted an unified Korea under their system.
Yet, chaos in Korea made war inevitable. China and Stalin made agreements that they
would send troops and support to North Korea if a war occurs. This enables, North
Korea to start the Korean War by invaded South Korea immorally in June 25,
1950 on Sunday. America sees the invasion of South Korea as an example of
Soviet aggression. America via Harry Truman called for military aide to South
Korea. America goes to the United Nations and the U.N. makes it their primary
affair. The United Nations organizes an international force. This force consists of
the nations of course America, Australia, etc. in battling North Korea. Some believe that
North Korea should be involved in the discussion with the UN on how the UN action
should be achieved. North Korea enacted a quick success in the beginning, because they
executed a surprise attack. They had about 231,000 troops with tanks capturing key
places like Kaesŏng, Chuncheon, Uijeongbu and Ongjin. South Korea forced retreated.
The UN intervention was headed by U.S. General Douglas MacArthur as he was appointed
as commander of the United Nations forces. Truman still talked with the Secretary of
State Dean Acheson on what to do in this Korean war. Truman gave $12 billion for
military expenses in Asia as fulfilling the agenda of NSC-68. Truman didn't want unilateral
U.S. airstrikes in North Korea, but evacuation of U.S. citizens and military aid to the ROK
Army. The combined American and U.S. forces were pulled back into the city of Pusan (at
the southeast corner of the peninsula). The Battle of Pusan stopped the North Korea from
taking the area. Then, there was the Battle of Incheon. General MacArthur was successful
in the battle. He used an ambitious amphibious landing at Incheon. This plan was strongly
opposed by the Pentagon, but it was successful. It was called Operation Chromite. The
forces used disinformation to make North Korea have light forces in Incheon. That is why
U.S. forces had little resistance when they landed and bombings occurred. MacArthur
soon recaptured Soeul and then the North Korean rapidly retreated northward. The United
Nations drove the North Korean past the 38th parallel. The U.N. forces invaded North
Korea in early October of 1950. The Eighth U.S. Army, along with the South Koreans,
drove up the western side of Korea and captured Pyongyang on October 19. By the end of
October, the North Korean Army was rapidly disintegrating, and the UN took 135,000
prisoners. China was concerned, so they enact a response.
MacArthur wanted to invade China since China supplied North Korean forces.
Harry Truman disagreed with this view of invading China and warned
MacArthur to be cautious when approaching the Chinese border. Mao and
Stalin agreed on sending Chinese forces to fight the U.N/U.S. forces because
they didn't want an unified Korea that was non-Communist. Soviets aided little
to the Chinese and by November 1, 1950, Chinese forces engaged the
American troops in battle. The Chinese forces came suddenly and attacked the
U.N. military at all sides. They acted so shift, that one division traveled 18
miles per day in average for 18 days. South Korean (or the ROK or Republic of
Korea) and American forces had no choose but to retreat from North Korea.
The ensuing defeat of the U.S. Eighth Army resulted in the longest retreat of
any American military unit in history. In January 1951, the Chinese and North
Korean forces struck again in their 3rd Phase Offensive (also known as the
Chinese Winter Offensive). The Chinese repeated their previous tactics of
mostly night attacks, with a stealthy approach from positions some distance
from the front, followed by a rush with overwhelming numbers, and using
trumpets or gongs both for communication and to disorient their foes. Seoul
was once again abandoned by UN forces to the communists by January 4,
1951.

UN forces continued to retreat until they had reached a line south of Suwon in the west
and Wonju in the center, and north of Samchok in the east, where the front stabilized. UN
forces came back and conquered Wonju by reaching the Han River. The UN stood off
another Chinese Fourth Phase Offensive. MacArthur was removed by President Truman on
April 11, 1951 for insubordination. MacArthur wanted to invade China and Truman
disagree with him on that proposal. It was a controversy in America and the new supreme
commander was Ridgway. Ridgway make counter offensive more effective. The Chinese
forces made another Fiflth Phase Offensive in April 1951. This conflict ended at a
stalemate in 1951. Battles continued until a cease fire was established on July 27, 1953.
By which time the front line was back around the proximity of the 38th parallel, and so a
demilitarized zone (DMZ) was established around it, presently defended by North Korean
troops on one side and by South Korean, American and UN troops on the other. The DMZ
runs north of the parallel towards the east, and to the south as it travels west. The site of
the peace talks, Kaesong, the old capital of Korea, was part of the South before hostilities
broke out but is now part of the North. North Korea and the United States signed the
Armistice Agreement, with Syngman Rhee refusing to sign. There were deaths and POWs
in both sides of the Korean War. New M20 bazooka, modern tanks, anti-tank weapons,
etc. were common weaponry in the Korean War. It was the beginning of end of the P-51
Mustang, F4U Corsair, and the Hawker Sea Fury aircraft carrier was utilized in a major
war. The American aircraft used the F086 Sabre transonic jet. These jet were more
advanced than the Soviet MiG jet systems that the North Korean utilized in the war. The
Korean War was the first time a helicopter (like the H-19) was used extensively in
warfare. This was a tie among all sides.

Harry Truman was into the elite in many ways. He was a 33rd Degree Freemason from
October 19, 1945. He loved the poetry of Tennyson. One of the poem’s were called
“Locksley Hall,” which inspired Truman. Truman copied the ten lines form the piece and
placed them in his wallet. Truman used the poem as a means to inspire his actions in the
negotiations of the Potsdam Conference. This conference dealt with the world order after
World War II. The then Federalist Society with its supporters like the late Walter Cronkite
because in global government and global law. Truman’s copied portion included the
following lines:

…the war-drums throbb’d no longer, and the battle-flags were furl’d

In the Parliament of man, the Federation of the world. (Qutd. in “Eternally safe for
democracy: the final solution of American science fiction” 157)

So, this portion of the poem wanted a federation of the world, which is similar to the new
world order. Truman in fact believed that a new weapon in America would force nations to
embrace his world order. President Harry Truman agreed in September 1946 to authorize
"Project Paperclip," a program to bring selected German scientists to work on America's
behalf during the "Cold War." However, Truman expressly excluded anyone found "to have
been a member of the Nazi party and more than a nominal participant in its activities, or an
active supporter of Naziism or militarism." Cardinal Spellman and many Knights of Malta
support the Operation Paperclip agenda Truman didn‘t want active supporters of Nazism or
militarism to be apart of the Project. Sameuel Klaus at first denied visa requests to some of
the ardent Nazis. Klaus was on the State Department‘s JOIA board as a representative.
JOIA stands for the War Department‘s Joint Intelligence Objectives Agency. The Director
of the JOIA was Bosquet Wev. Wev circumvented the via problem by allowing CIA
Director Allen Dulles to re writ the dossiers to eliminate the incriminating evidence of the
Nazi workers. Military Intelligence "cleansed" the files of Nazi references. By 1955, more
than 760 German scientists had been granted citizenship in the U.S. and given prominent
positions in the American scientific community. Many had been longtime members of the
Nazi party and the Gestapo, had conducted experiments on humans at concentration camps,
had used slave labor, and had committed other war crimes. Linda Hunt in the 1986 expose
in the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists would that more than 130 reports on Project
Paperclip subjects have been changed to “…eliminate the security threat classification…”
Truman wasn’t aware of the high level Nazis involved in Project Paperclip. Even ex-Nazi
chief intelligence officer General Reinhard Gehlen (who was awarded by the Knights of
Malta) was a CIA agent. Gehlen gave the USA massive record on the then USSR.
Harry Truman lived to see the creation of the United Nations. Its headquarters of course
resides in the shores of New York City. He spoke there to advance the development of the
World Health Organization. The history of the world is certainly more mysterious than the
naked eye. The Council on Foreign Relations had members that help support the UN
Charter. CFR members and elitists like Alger Hiss, John Foster Dulles, Harry
Dexter, etc. mapped out the creation of the U.N. Some of these men would be
accused of being Communist agents. The UN Charter is similar to the Constitution of
the USSR. The United Nations have been one of the most vocal advocates of the new world
order, global warming hysteria, and population control. They have been caught in numerous
scandals from Rwanda to its peacekeepers abusing women and children (which is wrong
and sick). The left establishment have used the corporate-invented United Nations to try to
control leftist activists. Thereby, this promotes the phony left/right paradigm when
Republicans and Democrats are funded by the same entities (like the Rockefeller
Foundation, the Vatican/Jesuit network as found in the health care debate of course, CFR,
Bilderbergers, etc.).
Eisenhower wanted a policy for a healthy economy and strong defense. His thinking is
much like Kennan viewing the Cold War as a long struggle. They felt that ultimately not
capable of defeating America at the time. Ike was confident that the American system
was seeing the destruction of Europe. He believes that the U.S. system is superior to the
Soviet system and there is no maximum threat to European allies, because of common
interests. Eisenhower desired to develop a policy of how to fight the Soviets without war
and without damage to the economy. Eisenhower’s new policy was the New Look
(including 4 points). These 4 points are:

1). A reduction conventional forces with a reliance of a nuclear determinant. He wants to

reduce convention forces since it’s expensive and a bomb is cheaply made. He knew that
the Soviet Union didn’t have equivalent military power to America, so he wanted to use
nuclear weaponry as a means to deter Soviet Communism.

2). Eisenhower would agree to military, economic and aid agreements with allies and have
non-alliance states to make non-alliance nations to go in favor of U.S. policy. Eisenhower
didn’t want to fight the Cold War by himself, but he wants to use other nations to help
themselves. He had trouble with Congress in trying to pass economic aid.

3). Ike believed in using propaganda and psychological warfare plus clandestine activities
(with the CIA) in various countries. He has a military background, so he knew about the
tactics of dirty tricks as a way to fight in the Cold War (He believed this was an
advantage, but many of these acts were illegal and immoral).

4). President Dwight D. Eisenhower even was willing to negotiate with the Soviet Union.
He have done this in order to peacefully end the Cold War as soon as possible, while
covertly defeating the Soviet Union. Keenan accepted much of Eisenhower’s plans except
the nuclear part.

The Second Republic of South Korea was created in 1960. Yun Po Sun was elected
President in the time of August 13, 1960. The prime minister and head of
government was Chang Myon. Under pressure from the left, the Chang
government carried out a series of purges of military and police officials who had
been involved in anti-democratic activities or corruption. A Special Law to this
effect was passed on October 31, 1960. 40,000 people were placed under
investigation; of these, more than 2,200 government officials and 4,000 police
officers were purged. A military coup ended the Second Republic since they
didn't like the cleanup measures undertaken by the Second Republic. Major
General Park Chung-hee led the military coup in May 16, 1961. This caused the
Third Republic. This Republic normalized relations with Japan in a ratified
agreement on August 14, 1965. South Korea's economy grew rapidly in the 1960's.
They even sent about 300,000 soldiers to fight alongside U.S. and South
Vietnamese troops during the Vietnam War. There were the Fourth and Fifth
Republics that increased the economy of North Korea. We live now under the Sixth
Republic of South Korea. South Korea is now having tensions with North Korea.
North Korea is still headed by Kim King Jong Il. Yet, South Korea is a more freedom
filled nation. Certainly, it's good news that the 2 American journalists are now in
America from their immoral captivity in North Korea. Bill Clinton was apart of the
negotiations to free the 2 women. Their names are Laura Ling who is 32, and Euna
Lee, who is 36. Laura Ling is the sister of Lisa Ling from Channel One back in the
1990's. I saw Channel One back when I was in Middle school and high school back
in the mid to late 1990's. I don't agree with President Clinton on every issue, but
freeing the 2 women was the right thing to do.

I’ve intentionally shown the picture of Pittsburgh Steelers’ wide receiver Hines
Ward with other people there. The reason is that like in America, South Korea has
many prejudice people against interracial children. Ward is a person with African
American and Korean background. He came into South Korea to promote adoption
of biracial children and respect for any children regardless of their background.
This is what I have in mind when I created this work about Korea. All human beings
whether they are interracial or not have equal value and deserve equal rights
without oppression or bigotry. Ward said: “…"If the country can accept me for who
I am and accept me for being a Korean, I'm pretty sure that this country can
change and accept you for who you are." On his final day in Korea, he donated $1
million USD to create the Hines Ward Helping Hands Foundation, which the AP
called "a foundation to help mixed-race children like himself in South Korea, where
they have suffered discrimination." We know the truth and we know the lesson that
being born is a blessing from God. No human should be treated any different than
another human.

Religious Liberty Suppression in North Korea

Roger Williams is a famous leader and inspirations for those who love religious liberty.
Rhode Island Senator William Sprague watched in the US Capitol in 1872 as a
statue of Roger Williams was presented there. Sprague said that Williams:
“…successfully vindicated the right of private judgement in matters of
conscience, and effected a moral and political revolution in all governments of
the civilized world…” Roger Williams wanted freedom of conscience, so he founded the
colony of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations in 1636. I don’t agree with plantations
though. This place was deeded to him by the Narragansett Native Americans. Rhode Island
was a place of religious refuse with the first Jewish synagogue created there and a sanctuary
for Quakers (who were killed and persecuted in Massachusetts plus other colonies). Roger
was exiled by from Salem in Massachusetts because of his theological views. His exile
wasn’t repealed until 1936 when the Massachusetts House passed Bill 488, ending 300
years of exile. Roger Williams wanted his European settlers to respect the land claims of
Native Americans, live with them, and trade with them as neighbors. Roger's first book was
entitled A Key to The Language of America, which featured a language-translation guide
teaching Europeans how to communicate with the Native Americans — a primary
precondition for peaceful association. Unfortunately the majority of Europeans in that time
preferred extermination over translation. Some Native Americans made land claims in the
area. He was against forced conversion of anyone since that violated Christian principles.
He influenced the developed of the Bill of Rights, which is filled the promotion of
individual liberty and religious freedom. Roger Williams also advanced the idea of political
democracy, and not the merging of church and state (He felt that the government shouldn’t
control people’s religious faiths or beliefs). Even in the 21st century in America, religious
threats exist. One extreme of the spectrum has groups like the ACLU that some of its
members wants public religious expression to be severely restricted. This is one area where
they are most hypocritical. They oppose tax exemptions for all churches, but fight for them
for Wiccans. They are against Christianity in school, but oddly remain silent as some of our
children are taught to be or act as Muslims. The ACLU was founded by Roger Baldwin,
who supported socialism and communism once (until he changed his mind). The ACLU’s
policy of Number 47 doesn’t believe in the individual right to bear arms, which is the
concept behind the essence of the Second Amendment. The ACLU’s policy # 47 states that:
“…The ACLU agrees with the Supreme Court’s long-standing interpretation of the
Second Amendment [as set forth in the 1939 case, U.S. v. Miller] that the
individual’s right to bear arms applies only to the preservation or efficiency of a
well-regulated militia. Except for lawful police and military purposes, the
possession of weapons by individuals is not constitutionally protected. Therefore,
there is no constitutional impediment to the regulation of firearms…” The ACLU is
pro-abortion and rarely defends the free speech rights of Pro-Life citizens. As legislative
counsel for the ACLU in 1985, Barry Lynn told the U.S. Attorney General’s Commission
on Pornography (of which Focus on the Family President Dr. James C. Dobson was a
member) that child pornography was protected by the First Amendment. While production
of child porn could be prevented by law, he argued, its distribution could not be. Of course,
child pornography is evil. The ACLU is right to oppose the Patriot Act, defend the liberties
of detainees, and oppose torture though. Some of the leaders of the ACLU are members of
the Council on Foreign Relations.
The other end of the spectrum has something different. The CNP (on the other end of the
spectrum) have used secession fever as an excuse to try to balkanize Americans. This
has been proven conclusively by Paul and Philip D. Collins. The DHS
document of course demonized pro-lifers, those against illegal
immigrations, 2nd Amendment proponents, those who disagree with
globalism, conservatives, libertarians, etc. as equivalent to terrorists. This
is found in the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Intelligence
Assessment entitled “Rightwing Extremism: Current Economic and
Political Climate Fueling Resurgence in Radicalization and Recruitment.”
That document was wrong of course. This document ironically existed
from the previous Bush administration. This certainly proves that some in the
government (which make up of the elite) desire to suppress opposition whether they are
from the left or the right. The ACLU’s leadership is heavily infiltrated by the Council on
Foreign Relations with ties to the Rockefeller Foundation.

Those neo-Confederates and secessionists allied with the CNP want disunity in America.
The CNP or the Council on National Policy had members since its inception connected
with the Vatican and the Council on Foreign relations (like Arnaud de Borchgrave, Edward
Teller, Guy Vander Jagt, and J. Peter Grace). They act as controlled opposition in
attempting to infiltrate conservatives and restrict independent actions to solve our
problems in the U.S. One CNP founding member was Rev. R.J. Rushdoony.
Rushdonny was not only an apologist for the Confederacy. He advocated segregation and
he opposed interracial marriage (which even the Bible doesn't forbid it. There is nothing
wrong with interracial marriage or marriage among people of the same ethnic group or race
either). Rushdoony believes in a theocratic empire in America. He (when he venerates the
Confederacy. He supports the heresy of Reconstruction theology) ignores that both the
Union and the Confederacy committed war crimes against each other. Also, although
slavery wasn't the only reason why the Civil War occurred, but slavery was a major one.
Confederate states issued statements that they wanted slavery to continue and that was one
crucial reason why they seceded from the Union. Mississippi joined South Carolina on
January 9, 1861. In “A Declaration of the Immediate Causes which Induce and Justify the
Secession of the State of Mississippi from the Federal Union,” the state declared that they
wanted the institution of slavery to be maintained. Thank God that institutional slavery is
banned in America. God had the final word in the Civil War. In the North and the
South, there were God fearing human beings, but you can't justify treating
human beings as less than human (as was done in slavery). Even CNP member
and Knight of Columbus Alan Keyes said that Obama will cause America to be in
a civil war if he's not stopped. This rhetoric is sick to say the least. CNP founding
member Howard Phillips is a big figure in Constitution Party even. Some CNP
members have intelligence connections. CNP member Viguerie has deep ties to the
Intelligence Community. Viguerie was a member of Korean intelligence agent Tongsun
Park’s Georgetown Club. Park was a major player in the Koreagate scandal that shook
Congress in the 1970s. Viguerie was collaborating with Park and the Korean CIA at the
time. The balkanization of America has been proposed by elitists and professors for years.
The CFR promotes Regionalism where the world is divided into Regions, while national
sovereignty is depleted. It is certainly better to solve our problems peacefully than have
some civil war in America. So, we should not support our federal government
unconditionally, while at the same time we should never support balkanization (plus
extreme rhetoric for the sake of political issues).

Religious Liberty issues is a global issue not just in America. Activists claim that a
Christian woman was executed in North Korea. North Korea publicly executed a Christian
woman last month for distributing the Bible. That is banned in the communist nation
according to South Korean activists. Ri Hyon Ok is 33 and was accused of spying for South
Korea and the United States (including organizing dissidents). She was executed in the
northwestern city of Tyongchon near the border with China on June 16 according to a
report from an alliance of several dozen anti-North Korea groups. Ri's parents, husband,
and 3 children were sent to a political prison camp. This camp is located in the northeastern
city of Hoeryong the following day according to the report. It cited unidentified documents
saying that these documents were obtained from North Korea. It showed a copy of Ri's
North Korea government issued photo ID. It's impossible to verify these reports about the
secretive nation of North Korea since the government tightly controls the lives of its
citizens and doesn't allow dissent. On Thursday, an annual report from a state run South
Korean think tank on human rights in the north said that public executions, though
dropping in number in recent years, North Korea still carried out these executions because
of crimes ranging from murder to circulating foreign movies. North Korea lies about
claiming to guarantee the freedom of religion for its 24 million people. The reality is that it
restricts religious observances heavily. The cult of personality surrounding the national
founder Kim II Sun and his son (the current leader Kim Jong II) is a virtual state religion.
The government only authorized 4 state churches. They are one Catholic, 2 Protestant ones,
and one Russian Orthodox. They cater to foreigners, but ordinary North Koreans can't
attend these religious places. However, defectors and activists say more than 30,000
North Koreans are believed to practice Christianity secretly. That's a violation of
religious liberty for those North Koreans. Do Hee-youn, who is a leading activist said
that North Korea view Christian forces as a threat and they have done public executions
(including the arrest and detention of North Koreans as being prevalent). The Investigative
Commission on Crime against Humanity allege in its report that in March that North
Korean security agents arrested Seo Kum Ok (who is 30 years old). Ok is another Christian
near Ryongchon and the North Korean authorities tortured her. The agents alleged that she
was attempting to spy on a nuclear site and hand over the evidence to South Korea and the
U.S. (when there is no conclusive evidence for this). The report said that it remain unclear
if she survived or not. Her husband and 2 children disappeared as well. This is tyranny in
the 21st century. The commission said that it was seeking to try to take North Korean leader
Kim to the International Criminal Court over alleged crimes against humanity. Activists
believe that Kim Jong Il must of knew about the atrocities occurring in his country, which
includes murder, kidnapping, rape, and extermination of people in prison camps. North
Korea should reform itself. I don't believe in invading a nation, but speaking out against
this evil going on in North Korea is a legitimate thing to do. This doesn’t mean that North
Korea can’t change. History proves that nations can wake up and make freedoms more
acceisble to people. America is a perfect example of that reality. Religious liberty should be
promoted worldwide.
