574 Words3 Pages

To the people, politicians, and allies of America, our world knows the impact of war. Our world knows what can come out of arguments in the political universe. Our world knows what it is like to suffer the aftermath of catastrophy. Our world, with all of us together, knows when a threat is imminent. Every continent can feel the cold shiver of fear, and worry, through the tug of war between the United States and our opposing North Korea. The leaders of the north korean people, dwelling in Pyongyang, have not only shown progress in advanced military weapons, but have also shown progress in separating themselves from our goal of universal peace. That, unto me and unto us, is all we need to feel threatened. Therefore, it is on our own responsibilities …show more content…

Threatening with our nuclear weapon technology will send the North Korean people into a state of panic, flooding their masses over the border. Most of the civilians will pour into China, which already has reached it’s highest capable capacity of people. Our mission is to protect those who are innocent, not only of our country, but to those around us. Therefore, it is an utmost approach of mine that the United States does not interfere with the North Korean land with nuclear weapons, but with gestures to a better environmennt for their people. To any opposers of our gestures and mission for peace, I grant the influence of our successful peers to encourage the North Korean people to retaliate against their leader for change. A revolution can be sparked through a drive for this change and can lead to the citizens of North Korea to live in a country not focused on war, but concentrated on growth, expansion, and healthy conditions. There is no need for our power to be shown with bombs, we are the country of the United States, and it is our duty unto us and all other peoples, to protect, to encourage, and to

Korea’s history already determined it was a weak country, having been a pawn for Far Eastern powers, so Cold War had left it nearly destroyed with epidemics, poverty, limited education, and authoritarian rulers (LaFeber, 2008). In this state, Korea was left vulnerable to communism. In 1945, the 38th parallel marked the ally agreement of disarming the occupying Japanese military, however by the end of the Korean War, it would be the indivisible line that divided the country between communism and democracy (LaFeber, 2008). In June 1950, when North Korean troops passed the 38th parallel, President Truman gave the order for American air and naval units to move into action to aid South Korea and to show the United States’ opponents that “the United States was no longer content with mere “containment” but now aimed for liberation (LaFeber, 2008, p. 114). LaFeber (2008) explains President Truman’s intent, “

Just America or Just in War? Throughout the decades, history has recorded all the wars in which the United States has participated in. Some may consider that the United States’ participation in foreign affairs may have been cruel, or unnecessary; while in other cases, others find it essential for the United States to fight for the common good.

My grandfather was actually drafted into the Korean War so it was extremely interesting to read this chapter and learn about an event that shaped his live forever. The Korean War’s roots lie within the Chinese civil war which ended with the victory of Mao Zedong and his Communist followers. This monumental victory angered many Americans who thought the United States government did little to help Jiang Jieshi’s Nationalist regime because our foreign policy was based around Europe not Asia but the damage was already done. The next year the State Department released NSC-68 which was a “Policy statement that committed the United States to a military approach to the Cold War,” ( The American Journey Ch.27 Pg. 800).

Our lives along with many others are still being affected by the iron grip of societal norms.

In North Korea, fear has direct and indirect influences on people’s minds. Some of the most common crimes in North Korea are murder, espionage and, more relatable and associated with the topic in hand, political offenses. Criticizing the government is strictly illicit; if one commits such a crime, the punishment would be extremely harsh, including spending years in concentration camps. These camps are refuted by the government; however, there is supporting evidence that proves their existence. One can be charged with this punishment by crossing the borders of North Korea or introducing thoughts other than the ones supported by the government.
