very disturbing video

http://www.robpongi.com/pages/comboFUCKINGUSAHI.html
I found this video to be more disturbing that most of the ones we've seen. The constant memories from the past, are a tool to instill hate and anger towards the US. By maintaing the position of refusing to give N. Korea aid, realiotns seem hopeless. A resoltion is difficult to reach when each country lacks understanding, and mostly fears the other. The US fears N. korea's "irrationality," while N. Korea fears the loss of status and security against the US by giving up the one object that places them on equal planes.

wow if i saw that as a kid, and on top of that recieved all the indoctrination from the regime, i probably would be angry and as scared as hell of bush too. I wonder how well broadcasted that cartoon was... i'm thinking that if there's only one tv station in North Korea, then many kids probably have seen it...

I mean, for example, I've had a bad experience as a child watching ET, and now am just scared of the thing. I think an image like that could really stick out in a young kid's subconscious as a vision of Americans...
