written by Jimmie Osborne on July 26,1950. The song was recorded the day after the Korean war began on July 25,1950. The war took place right after all of the distress of both World Wars and the Civil War. “God Please Protect America” was written as a depthful plea during this difficult time for all. On the morning of June 25, 1950, North Korea invaded the South with “advanced units of the 135,00 soldiers of the North Korean army” (McGowen,10). The South was unprepared and unequipped. They…

North Korean suffer from hunger and bad living condition is well known. There are people starve to death, and people die from disease due to lack of medical facility and medical equipment.

and professions. Whilst, information considered reasonable by the North Korean government can be accessed on the intranet. Even with the intranet, the people of North Korea face more challenges. To access the intranet, they are in need of computers, these computers cost months of salary. Even if the people are able to earn this money, people don't have the right to own computers unless granted with permission by the North Korean government. North Korea, yearning for…

In 1950, the Korean War began as the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, or North Korea, invaded the Republic of Korea in the south across the 38th parallel. Shortly after the start of the war, American and United Nations (U.N.) troops joined the battle and fought alongside South Korea. Correspondingly, General Douglas MacArthur had been named commander of the U.N. forces by the United Nations Security Council. Both President Harry Truman and General MacArthur acknowledged the significance of…

The Obama Administration desires to maintain peace on the Korean Peninsula by working with allies to deter and defend against North Korean provocation. Currently, the U.S. posture is “strategic patience” in hopes that North Korea changes its irrational behavior.

and study about the Korean criminal justice system and the strong culture they value. After a long 16 hour flight I had finally arrived in Incheon Korea. After waiting for the bus, and the check in at the hotel I was ready to explore Korea until my classmate arrived. When the whole class arrived the following day, I was eager to get out and learn something. That night two other classmates and I went out for dinner to this very traditional Korean restaurant. Being half Korean and being my second…

Korea’s situation is much worse. The average North Korean goes through many obstacles every day and has limited access to resources that citizens of other countries would have an abundant amount of access to. Through the continued abuse of human rights, no outside countries seem to believe that they should interfere with how North Korea treats its people. Though all countries have a right to their own choices, it does seem that leaving North Koreans trapped and helpless inside their country…

of a story on the seized Korean device until the government is ready to announce it. The government offered an exclusive interview in exchange, but no date was given as when the story would be released. The public deserves to know the true extent of the North Korean threat. The public was already aware of the fact that the North Koreans sold uranium to Libya and a complete nuclear reactor to Syria. The only new information this document provides is that the North Koreans have now tried to sell…
