North Korea has not become the biggest fan of President Obama in the past few weeks he has been in office. Yet again, North Korea has become the "baby" of the world and when they do not get enough attention...they cry and make a fit about it.
North Korea has shown signs of restlessness and increased hostility against their Asian neighbors and the U.S. because they feel ignored. I do not know why their country feels they have to be the center of attention all the time. When Bush was in office, he created a situation where the United States bowed to North Korea's every little whine and moan about not having enough money and resources.
In 2006, they reminded Bush that they do not like being ignored by firing seven missiles in a "missile test". To me, this sounds a lot like when my little brother does not get a toy he wanted at the store and has a huge tantrum. My mom finally caves in almost every time, and then to him, the world's happy again. Korea just needs to grow up and deal with their problems themselves.
I think President Obama is doing a good and bad thing. Good because he is showing North Korea that we cannot always pay attention to only them and then not on our own country. Bad because they could get fed up with our lack of urgency that they could do something irrational. Hilary Clinton is expected to name a representative specialy for North Korea but many people are worried because she has not yet named other officials for Asia. So this could take a while.
I think every country is getting fed up with North Korea and just wishes they would worry about getting their own country help and not just using our resources and money for unimportant things. President Obama should continue what he is doing by not responding to that country while Hilary Clinton finds an official for North Korea. If I lived there, I would be ashamed of my country.
