LiNK - Life in North Korea

One thing I really hate about Blogspot? I can't embed a video onto this page, so you'll just have to click for yourself and see.

You really should watch that because it might change your world... or it might not.
But aside from my usual "Thank you" blogs, I guess by watching this video, I figured that I'd have to thank my country for the liberty that I am so accustomed to that I forget to be thankful for.
Sure, even when I say that, there's controversy, because my freedom is limited.
But it's not as limited as of those in that video.

Sure, I might not know the whole story.
And sure, maybe this isn't as big of a deal as it seems.
But it's worth watching.

My opinion?
I've watched footage of Invisible Children.
Jacob, the survivor, visited our school.
And it hurt me to know such things were going on in the world
(as cheesy as that sounds).
And it's real.
But when I think about it, I see no point into taking action.
I know it's wrong and purely evil.
And sure, people will know be informed.
But then what?
For me, I see our war in Iraq all over again.
US taking action.
US butting into somebody's else's matters.
US ending up getting hurt in the long run.
I mean, isn't that what happened in Iraq?
I'm sorry if my ignorance led me wrong, but from what I know, as of now, I just see that whole war happening again if we ever do persuade our government to take action. More blood. More tears. That's it.

I could be wrong. Chances are, I am wrong. But that's just my opinion, if you took the time to read through that mass of words.

Watch the video and decide for yourself.
& help spread the word.
