American Civil War :: Reader comments at Daniel Pipes

Submitted by Victor Lipshutz (United States), Oct 9, 2002 at 09:54

Our ancestors fought a bitter and bloody war over slavery, and came out far stronger and better for it, when it would have been far easier for the North to appease the slaveowning South.

In Korea's case, the South is certainly appeasing the North's enslaving of the mind of North Koreans. Who will win?
