Given the choice, I would not choose to live in North Korea. Given the choice, North Koreans would probably choose to live in an undivided Korea. That doesn't mean its right to let them starve.

"WE did not cut them off- THEY choose to withdraw from the agreements to stop development of nuclear weapons in exchange for food, supplies, and NUCLEAR power technology."

"They" being their politicians and "WE" being our politicians. Neither of which give two shits about the Korean people. Nuclear weapons are important only to the politicians. Food, supplies and nuclear power are important to the people. How can they become strong enough to govern themselves if we keep them weak and at the mercy of an ego-maniac?

Yes, unification would be a sane solution but the South is afraid it would then bear the burden of millions of starving people. Besides that, the political leaders will never agree to it.

My opinion is that, regardles of the politicians of the day, we should be feeding people who are starving. I don't agree with the politics of the Sudan either, but does that mean we are just going to watch them starve?

I think we need some creative solutions to this problem, not just the same worn out logic that has failed in the past.
