Comments

  • That apology was officially retracted the second that the crew were repatriated, so it isn't worth the paper it is written on.
  • I read about the capture of the 82 crew members and their gruesome torture. It was gut-wrenching to say the least. In my opinion, the North Koreans should hand-over the ship back to the US and signal an end to hostility. It's their best chance ever.
  • The only military success NK has ever had!
