It’s All a Matter of Perspective

Does it sometimes seem to you like we are two ships that pass in the night? 

The South Korean government should not disgrace itself by obeying foreign powers and imposing sanctions on its brethren….  South Korea’s political parties, groups and the public in all walks of life should be aware of the maneuvers of conservatives to take power ….   South Koreans should form a broad anti-conservative alliance to destroy pro-American and anti-unification politicians and their conspiracies.

You say that like it’s a bad thing.

Feel better?
