Liberals think it’s a joke when conservatives say nobody respects America anymore, but the latest incident between the US and a hostile nation shows that it’s absolutely not.
As if Iran seizing and holding American sailors in the Persian Gulf wasn’t enough, North Korea joined in with a provocative action of it’s own. Not content to test nuclear weapons against the will of the international community, the isolated Asian country is holding an American citizen in captivity.
That is, the nation revealed that it is holding an American citizen. The American, 21 year-old Otto Frederick Warmbier, has reportedly been in the custody of the North Koreans for three weeks. He was heading back to China after a visit to North Korea through the Young Pioneer Tours group when he was stopped by security at Pyongyang airport and whisked away.
The United States does not maintain an embassy in the communist state, but it deals through the Swedish embassy in Pyongyang. Both the State Department and the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs are working with the Young Pioneer group to negotiate Warmbier’s release.
See how the government responded to North Korea’s provocation on the next page:
That’s what I’ve been saying! What the Hell are they thinking?
This isn’t his final year. He’s pushing for Marshall law. If he doesn’t get to be Secretary General of the U.N. because that seat becomes available this summer. Then watch out
Let the American kidnapping begin… it pays really good.
It was a hostile acat on his part to just cross the border into NK. I say let him stew in his own juice and not ransome him. On the other hand, I would go to S. Korea and have , infact I lived there one time in Seoul.
Who would want to go to north korea
Pray for him.
He will succeed in completely destroying America, and no one is doing a thing about except rolling over and playing dead.
Stay in America, problem solved.
We hope
Dumbama will probably offer them weapons and cash and veto all sanctions against them to make nice, not to get this kid back but because he is just plain stupid.
