Where is the South Korean government? Where are the South Korean school teachers? Oops, sorry, they are rewriting history making the UN look like an afterthought all the while condeming the west for its transgressions against Korea.

Now you want to put the blame on the UN for 'camp 22"?

How many Koreans can find Oklahoma (about same size) in the US? How many know whats happening in Oklahoma city? On a % basis, I would say more Americans know about Korea. Eh?

Well, it's appreciated. The weekly linklets is one of my favorite ongoing K-blog items.

Probably because many, not all, Americans cannot locate North Korea on a map and don't care about North Korean issues.

Good point…But you must admit the North Korean gulags aren't getting enough press. Where are the UN Forces? Oh, right. The security council is useless thanks to its permanent members having veto rights.

"I continue to find it interesting how worked up people are about a missing sign at a concentration camp closed decades ago yet could care less about the concentration camps open and operating right now"

I don't think its an 'either or' situation. One 'the sign in Auswich' is a reminder of the other, 'the NK gulags'.

I have been pretty busy lately and the holidays is giving me some more time to blog. In January my work tempo will be picking up again and I will probably miss a few weeks again where I don't post the linklets. The Weekly Linklets actually take me quite a while to put together because I read through most of the blogs on my sidebar when I put them together which takes up most of my Sunday morning before the start of football games.

Thanks, too, for the links. I always enjoy the weekly linklets… though for a while there they were looking like the bi-weekly linklets.

Thanks for the link to my musings on Korean identity.
