Balance and Non-Intervention

I think the important thing with the current escalation of angst between the DPRK North and the ROK South of Korea is that this is old business between very angry brothers who have a long history of strife. Both sides look towards a future unification and perhaps this unification can only arise after some awful struggle. If the other players (US/Japan and China) keep some distance and just let these guys work things out, well, that would be best. The last time East-West got involved it just created a broken hateful situation which persists to this day. You don't unite by division. I hope the Koreans work this out -it's their job and it's their business, and no one elses.
