I’m not going to ascribe any moral grading to these NK soldiers, for all I know they were forced to deploy against their will, or maybe they volunteered.

Either way, it doesn’t matter. They were active participants in a conflict, and deployed within a war zone. That means they were legitimate military targets to be killed, or captured.

I hate this fictional couple already. Despite the fact that they’re clearly upper middle class and educated, they’re too lazy to capitalize “I”, or his name.

It’s an odd situation for Five-Eyes nations to be huffing and puffing about this. Both the NYPD and FBI have foreign “police stations”, or at minimum, foreign postings.

That doesn’t even touch on clandestine and sheepdipped agents working around the globe, and in some cases, serving in law enforcement adjacent capacities.

And before anyone gets on their high horse about whatever repressive and authoritarian acts these “police stations” get up to, I get it.

I’m not saying they shouldn’t be shut down, or dealt with. What I am saying is that it’s kinda absurd how the pot isn’t just calling the kettle black, but being annoyingly smug about it, given the hypocrisy inherent in this situation.
