Comments on this Consulate-General
I support Mr. Moon Jae-In for President of South Korea as he has stated his intention to approach North Korean Nuclear Matters in a reasonable way, and has expressed his desire for summit meetings.
To: President Lee of South Korea: The current status of military arms development requires reconsideration of the South Korean government in regard to the 1953 Armistice ending the Korean War. South Korea did not sign this paper. Mr. President, the lives of people are a concern here. I have worked very hard for a long time in study of this matter. Currently, North Korea has made the decision to avoid the Armistice for reasons that I myself feel are compelling. I must advise you, personally, to sign the Armistice Agreement, Today. When you bring your government to agree with my conclusion, you must restrict all military weapons fire against the Northern sector completely. Give us a break here. I do not desire to sit by and watch U.S Military people being put at risk as a result of failure to comply with Armistice provisions on the part of your government.
In my deep concern for the safety of the people of all of Korea, I suggest that the South might start to study the use of Uranium derivitives in a sound managed financial portfolio using options on the underlying Uranium investment on a per ounce basis in creating a financial system with the participation of North Korea in order to stabilize the use of Uranium for profitable portfolio growth. This system could be beneficial in peace negotiations, because the strategy is not based apon military defense, and could create a financial system for the North that could lead to its financial recovery. Using such a strategy could help the North purchase, for instance, more wheat than it actually needs at any given time. An investment manager could, for instance, use futures contracts. However it should be realized that the Uranium bulk itself would be contained in North Korea with ownership as need be changing hands from time to time. I think this idea deserves some serious study.
It is wrongful and cheap to suggest that North and South Korea are still "technically" at war with each other when there is an armistice in place. It appears to me substantially that provoking the north with military drills is potentially destabilizing and therefore a criminal act. This miserable thing that continues to go on and on jeapardizes the armistice as well as the safety of 24 million people in North Korea and it appears to me that because of this some of the military problems that have occurred in the past may be a result of this destabilizing conduct. Study better ways to build peace, instead of trying to extort peace with destabilizing military drills.
My wife and I, and our children, had planned to visit South Korea for an extended holiday next year. My father fought in the Korean War, and we wanted to see some of the places he spoke of. He loved the Korean people, and we had hoped to meet many Koreans, but under the circumstances, we will not be going. We don't go to Japan, because they continue to murder whales, and if South Korea chooses to do the same thing, we'll take our dollars elsewhere, we'll find another place to enjoy our holidays.There is no excuse for killing whales, or any sentient being, and doing so makes us think less of all Korean people. Shame on you!
The recent firing apon the North Korean border by United States and South Korean armed forces is an act of Criminal Provocation.
I am a 1972 exchange student to Switzerland, and a former Envoy for Richard Nixon. Your media has inappropriatly caused concern for the North Korean administration in the recent past. This appears to jeapardize US Military personel. Apologize immediately, and warn your media to refrain from this kind of conduct in the future.
