South Korean MPs demand execution of North's Olympic delegate

OK so probably poor form on NK's side to send him due to the his history with South.

But talk about how to instantly ignite the Korean War if they were to actually execute the guy, while attending as a diplomat. Other than making a lot of noise, do these people suggesting it have any understanding of the fall out from actually doing it.

SKorea, , I cut you some slack for inviting chicky-poo but this general.....NOT a good idea, in fact extremely BAD, totally inappropriate!!

Agree with both. This is just so wrong. This is Fat Boy trying to rub SK's face in dung..

This is like sending Hitler to a bar mitzvah. A HUGE mistake!

Well, it's confirmed; Moon is a traitor and a NK agent. He would invite a war criminal responsible for dozens of his own countrymens' deaths to appease his master in Pyongyang. NK is literally just trolling at this point to see what they can get away with and Moon is offering SK up on a silver platter for him.

How long can SK put up with such humiliating violation by NK? What is wrong with Moon?

There will be a bloodbath if South Korea executes this high ranking North Korean diplomatic official. The South Koreans better stop complaining and accept his presence with a smile or there will be trouble and the South will be blamed for derailing the peace and unification process. The North has nukes anyway, the South cannot refuse his presence

There goes the peace and reconciliation plan then!

while the quest for peace is laudable, SK is not going to be able to control the situation and this could get badly out of hand if not everyone involved isn't on the same page. There's no reason to risk such an event

Wrong fella to send. Not a clever or diplomatic move after Kim Yo Jong.

Good cop - bad cop approach?

Still, calling for an execution is the dopiest move yet by the ROK.

re: "Authorities are in agony over protocol and the seating plan at the closing ceremony."

What agony could there possibly be as MOON has clearly made it known to the world where he stands when it comes to NK or China and that clearly is NOT with the US. He has clearly sold out SK and given victory to the NK's on behalf to appease China. The S Koreans are not willing to go against Moon and keep him in power. The timing couldn't be more perfect for the US and its goal to get out of the region and continue a withdrawal out of Korea before US blood is the ultimate price to pay. In order to pull that off, it can be accomplished under the mask of deployments that never return, which over a small considerable time the SKoreans wont' even know until it is too late. Then slowly start reassigning the families out via PCS moves, and this too can occur simultaneously without them realizing what is going on.  Finally will be the announcement of a full withdrawal out of SK,where China, Russia can divide the spoils.

@dcog - Your venomous rhetoric is getting tired.. you can call Moon a NK agent 10,000 times but you have nothing more than your personal feelings to back up that ridiculous claim. SK were right to let NK participate in the games and send their tacky cheer squad, it's what kept the Olympics from becoming an unprecedented disaster with half the countries pulling out due to security fears.

Moon will oppose it. But his continued "appeasements" toward NK might lead to a military coup, especially to prevent the sellout of SK to NK. It isn't the first time SK has had military coups.

 I think SK has a significant military advantage,

NK has nuclear weapons and missiles to deliver them. SK is armed only with conventional weapons. How can SK have a significant military advantage?

Obviously NK's nuclear weapons has intimidated and scared Moon into appeasing NK, Moon is also scared of military action by the U.S., which is the reason he is rushing into dialogue with NK before the U.S. can act.

There goes the peace and reconciliation plan then

Not if Moon goes to Pyongyang and agrees to a peace treaty under DPRK terms that calls for removal of U.S. military from the peninsula, forced unification of the two Koreas under DPRK government and recognition of DPRK as the official government of the Unified Korea.

But Is this the kind of peace and reconciliation you want?

Once a "peace treaty" between SK and NK becomes a done deal, I doubt the U.S. can do anything to undo the damage.

A Unified Korea under DPRK regime aligned with China will form a formidable alliance to dominate the China Seas region, which is China's agenda all along.

South Korea. Stand up for yourself and don’t let that lunatic Moon dictate his nonsense.

South Koreans know how to stand up for themselves. Don't you worry about that.

Heheh, what if Iran had welcomed Saddam Hussein into Tehran for peace symbolism after what Saddam did to Iranians with his invasion

Sometimes foes can put the horrible past behind them.

Just look at the peace process in NI/6 counties.

Out of all the pain and grief, sometimes comes humanity.

We live in hope.

The war criminal's visit should be canceled. What are the North Koreans going to do? Start a war they can't win?

This is being done on purpose. Kim Jong Un is sending a despised military commander to the country that he attacked and killed. I knew he was going to sabotage these "good feeling games" but I just didn't know how. This really takes the cake

What if they compromise and allow him to visit but with no hat? (My guess is he'd pull out.)

This is in such poor taste and judgement that I find it hard to believe that the Moon administration simply accepted KIm Yong Chol's attendance at the Olympics in South Korea. I can understand that outrage and this is an affront to the surviving families of the 46 sailors killed in the Cheonan sinking.

And it only took the length of the Olympics for North Korea to show their true colors.

but accepted it as the "chances for improving inter-Korean ties and a peace settlement might be improved".

Jeeze....seems there are other things you could do instead.
