Korea, I'm sure the U.N. can resolve the repeated aggression.

agree about the UN. i think China needs to pull rank and apply a bit of pressure there....from what i saw on the news tonight i think Obama may be sending an envoy to Beijing for talks to resolve/call a truce to the issue, you know yourself MH this has been a long running undeclared war, its been tit for tat for a few decades now.

They're in my thoughts also.
Unless there's a sudden outbreak of common sense in China's approach to N Korea, there's little hope of a resolution...

Add mine to the list! Lets hope that The Korean problem can be sorted out by negotiation !
Nice to be able to go back to trust and friendship!!!!!!!!!
It's a mixed up sensation this being alive
Oh! it wears a man down into the ground
It's the strangest elation
I can't describe it
Oh it leaves a man weary
It makes a man frown..............................Chris Simpson ( "Mixed Up Sensations" 1975 Martin's Cafe )

U2 played in New Zealand last night and they dedicated a song to the miners and their families, dont know which song it was because im unfamiliar with their work after 'auchtung baby'. they also held a mintues silence in the middle of the concert and displayed the names of all 29 miners on their collossal screens.......well done to Bono and Co. for that!

Read the book 'The Two Koreas' - very good synopsis of the situation (about 10 years old).
