Now I'm developing this website, the more people take part in this valuable work, the more our strong voices appeal to them. It will be powerful. Would you visit to this website, and join us? Warm Regards, Young Shin Jung. Hi, this is Young Shin Jung, the editor of abraham318.com from South Korea. I would like to invite you as a colomnist to abraham318.com.

Would you be willing to spread the word about www.draftresistance.org? It's a site dedicated to shattering the myths surrounding the selective slavery system and building mass civil disobedience to stop the draft before it starts! Our banner on a website, printing and posting the anti-draft flyer or just telling friends would help. Thanks! Scott Kohlhaas PS. When it comes to conscription, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure! Any improvement in the Korean conscription situation would be appreciated!

Without following their day to day media, you're not really able to make an accurate assessment of their sentiment towards the US, or any other country for that matter.

They know that if they're captured, their own government won't lift a finger to help them. There will be no outcry for ransom or outrage against China. They know they're on their own, but they accept it because there's no other way to help those people. And we haven't even discussed the heroism of North Koreans who go back to their homeland to propogate Christianity. That's courage. And they, too, have a real chance to success, although the cost will be great. The difference between the underground railroad workers and the Afghanistan hostages is the difference between courage and suicide. What specific goal could those missionaries in Afghanistan point to that could be realistically accomplished? Afghanistan at least has a quasi-democratic government that offers hope for a more liberal future. If we support that government, rather than undermine it with propaganda gifts and calls for ransom, there may even be freedom of conscience there one day. Clearly, some people have a lot of malice toward these hostages and wish them ill, and that's unfortunate. It should go without saying that we hope the rest of them are rescued. I sure hope no soldiers have to die trying.

The threat to you and me is minimal - as it always was but not to America overall. Just look at the recent terrorist attack plans in the UK and how their government reacted to it. It is all about how much it might influence the individual.... That is why nobody cares about NK. It isn't their family...
