North Korea: Rogue State
[ send me this paper ]
6 pages in length. Basking in its well-earned reputation as a rogue state, North Korea offers no apologies for the lying, conniving and deliberate misleading it is guilty of carrying out with regard to nuclear weaponry. That the nation has long been – and continues to be – a threat to the United States and world peace stems from its refusal to honor an agreed-upon nuclear contract established during the Clinton Administration, taunting with preemptive strikes and defiantly selling their weapons to anyone who has the money to pay for them, just to name a few valid reasons. Bibliography lists 7 sources.

Poverty in North Korea
[ send me this paper ]
8 pages. This paper tells of appalling conditions in North Korea with thousands of people starving to death and yet the government of North Korea refuses to allow any outside help or even to admit there is anything wrong in the country. The cries of the North Korean people who are starving to death must be heard. It is the noises that the political parties of other countries make that serve to drown them out. This inhumanity is the equivalent to another Holocaust. The thesis here is that the message needs to get out to the world that these poverty-stricken North Koreans desperately need help – but that the North Korean government will have to be circumvented to do so. Bibliography lists 6 sources.
