There is a fantastic book that I read recently called Immovable Object by A.B Abrams published by Clarity Press. It is a book About North Korean Relationship with the US and how North Korea managed to keep its Sovereignty, and also mentions a great deal about China too. It is is among the finest books that I read about the Korean Peninsula and it will completely change your perception about the country itself. It is also a great book for those interested about the current tense situation In Far East Asia as a whole and to understand it from its origins to these days.

Yasha's excellent Article reminded me once more that it's a great time to start reading that book and I certainly will do it again.

The Reactionary Comparison of the US to China is a sick joke, considering that the US itself was founded through Genocide and Slavery and therefore it has been founded on a colonial mindset. But I suppose that since the US's Idea of Freedom Revolves(only) around the Individual, in other words, the freedom to own property(a concept that obviously will create only Greed and Selfishness), the ruling elite is incapable of understanding the world outside that frame and will see only puppets or so called aggressors.
