Alan G Phillips · Top Commenter · University of Arkansas WE SENT FLIGHTS WITH EQUIPMENT TO NORTH KOREA IN 2011 AND 2012, WHY? ACCORDING TO ASAHI SHINGUN, JWS Are we sending mixed signals to North Korea's leadership and in doing so appearing weaker in the process? It seems our credibility with Japan is tarnished unnecessarily by this action. Experimentation is not effective in furthering the interests of the United States there is no substitute for standing for freedom and an end to North Korea's bullying. Victory is the answer to achieving success. Dr. Alan G Phillips, Sr.
