After the slicing of Korea into two by the USSR and the USA, the unhappiness of this divided one people continues. The problem of Korea is a problem between 2 Korean brothers and 2 Korean cities, Seoul and Pyongyang, and it is only these 2 brothers, these two cities, who can resolve the issue, and if left to their own devices, they would solve it, although it wouldn't be pretty, it would be resolved fairly quickly. It won't be resolved by provocations by the foreign USA..and certainly not with the assistance of Japan who are the most despised people by both the Korean brothers for very good reason. Actually, the Japanese involvement in the US effort to destabilise the North may well be the one thing, the one sprite, that unites North and South against Japan...and the USA. Too much harm was done by Japan to both North and South Korea for there ever to be a reconciliation with Japan that doesn't involve a lot of bloodshed. Best for Japan to stay out of it. The 'Grief Response' is an incredibly powerful and vicious thing...and for good reason.
