Reading Bill Clinton's Face

Written by Sean Linnane on Wednesday August 5, 2009

Do not fall for North Korean attempts to exploit this: Bill Clinton did a good thing. Two American citizens being held against their will have been liberated.

Laura Ling and Euna Lee, the two American journalists sentenced to 12 years hard labor in North Korea, are on their way back to the United States, thanks to the efforts of President Bill Clinton.

Do not fall for North Korean attempts to exploit this; Bill Clinton did a good thing, this is a time for joy & celebration. Two American citizens being held against their will have been liberated. 4+ months in the Democratic People's Republic of Korea is no vacation - the DPRK is NOT a fun place to be, even in a "guesthouse" in Pyongyang.

Euna Lee and Laura Ling were arrested for "grave", though unspecified, crimes on the North Korea-China border earlier this year. It is widely thought that they deliberately crossed the border.


clinton-in-north-korea


The former President meets Yang Hyong Sop, Vice-President of the Presidium of the Supreme People’s Assembly - whatever you gotta say, whatever it takes - as long as there's no strings attached - to get your people back.


clinton-and-kim


North Korea’s official news agency reported that Mr Clinton and Mr Kim engaged in "sincere and exhaustive discussions" on a range of issues.

Yeah, WHATEVER. Notice how Bill Clinton negates the North Korean propaganda photo-op event by showing NO EMOTION. Mister Charisma is NOT SMILING; he is stiff as a board, lifeless - this is not by accident, he has been coached. His body language says: "None of this counts, nothing of what you see or hear means anything. My heart is not in this. There is no meaning to my words. I am just going through the motions. There is no recognition of the people with whom I am speaking (the North Koreans). I give you nothing, and you give me my people."


south-korean-protest


South Koreans have been demanding the release of the two women. Here they burn a defaced North Korean flag during a rally - where can I get a spray can that squirts out flames like that?

We NEVER lost hope & faith... Welcome Home Laura Ling & Euna Lee!
