>what US did to South Korea You know South Korea was a dictatorship for many after the Korean War ended? The first dictator so loved by the US that they flew him to Hawaii to live out his life when people revolted against the regime. The second dictator got approval from the US. Yes, North Korea is bad, but after having 85% of buildings and a larger proportional civillian death toll than Vietnam or WW2, I find it not strange they turned into a closed off dictatorship. >Russian accusations of indiscriminate attacks on civilian targets did not register with the Americans at all. But for the North Koreans, living in fear of B-29 attacks for nearly three years, including the possibility of atomic bombs, the American air war left a deep and lasting impression. The DPRK government never forgot the lesson of North Korea's vulnerability to American air attack, and for half a century after the Armistice continued to strengthen anti-aircraft defenses, build underground installations, and eventually develop nuclear weapons to ensure that North Korea would not find itself in such a position again. ... The war against the United States, more than any other single factor, gave North Koreans a collective sense of anxiety and fear of outside threats that would continue long after the war's end. https://apjjf.org/-Charles-K--Armstrong/3460/article.pdf https://apjjf.org/-Charles-K--Armstrong/3460/article.pdf
