First of all, I don't have any symphaty for them to call the U.S. for help, they know what they in for and it's very stupid to go to a communist country and risk your freedom and family life for a story that people know what is going on, AL GORE HAVE NO BALLS to support his current workers for the life-threatening jobs, HE DOESN"T HAVE ANY IDEA IN CLIMATE CHANGES, I don't know who is his ADVISOR is but all they want is your sympathy and MONEY, to this TWO JOURNALIST who is asking for forgiveness and admitting the stupid action that they did, hope will end in happy ending i'm just saying this because of your family especially your kids.

I think this is a disturbing statement of Al Gore’s ability to stand up for important issues. These woman worked for him and he should be doing everything he can to get them back home. I talk about this in my blog: http://tinyurl.com/mb3tan

What did they think would happen if they got caught? They did something real stupid in the name of journalism and free press in a country that we have had very bad relations with for over 50 years. Did they think they would be given Kimche and tea and sent home with flowers. They knew the risk they were taking and if they didn't than they are more stupid than the people who sent them there for a story. If you think they will be released all I can say is "remember the Pueblo"

North Korea has created a flutter in the world community. Obama was addressing Muslim world on one end and North Korea was planning to sentence US journalists. US should not take North Korea lighly. with this sentence they have shown the world that they can take US head ons.

This is very sad. I wonder exactly what they did that was such a “grave crime.” Shouldn’t the camera-guy that escaped have the whole thing on camera? The video should show if they were being hostile.
