Interesting link. Again, there are striking similarities between this unforgivable act carried out by the Japanese in the 1940s and the actions of present-day South Korea…

[...] I consider President Roh and demagogue on this issue simply because he has no creditability to advocate for these women when he continues to do absolutely nothing about the plight of North Korean sex slaves in China now.Â What are the chances President Roh would make a statement like this towards China’s modern day sexual slavery of Korean women?Â [...]

The thing is, it looks like the coutries near North Korea (South Korea, China) are not doing much of anything to help either, and in fact helping the North Korean government in some ways. I am not talking about invading at this point, I am just talking about taking in more refugees and speaking out more.

I think what will happen is this Truth Commission will pardon all all Koreans involved because they really were nothing but victims themselves. But rest assured the Americans will be punished for their action-or-inaction, whichever one happens.

“Some day, there will be a Truth Commission, and I predict here and now that the South Koreans will try to sanitize the fact that the government they elected provided the soft background music while China raped its sisters and daughters. ”

Ouch, sadly your prediction will likely be right, IF they ever do get around to a real truth commission on north korea. I could see serious attempts to obstruct or derail the attempt to hold one.

Unfortunately, our country is stretched pretty thin when it comes to foreign affairs…. There’s a lot of bad things going on in the world, and the U.S. can’t try to fix all of them. Sometimes, the countries near the problems (who should be the most interested), should step up and solve them.

The South Koreans SHOULD be doing SOMETHING…I mean, other than screaming about Dokdo, trying to expand North Korea into China, coming up with ways to excuse North Korea’s behavior, hating the U.S. while stealing our tax dollars, and blaming Japan for not apologizing 101 times.

Very sad, I feel sorry for these women. It is also a shame that my own country, the U.S. is not doing much if anything to help them. The North Korean Human Rights act needs to be inforced.
