The author explains why North Korea, though impoverished,
nevertheless feels compelled to spend enormous amounts of its
scarce resources on developing nuclear bombs and missiles capable
of being delivered to the US, or at least to US allies. To most
Americans this seems slightly bizarre. But Paone's conclusion is
that North Korea is quite rational - it simply wants to DETER the
US from doing the same thing as it did during the Korea War:
killing three to six million Koreans; burning down hundreds of
villages, towns and cities; and leaving behind tens of thousands to
live the rest of their lives without limbs or with napalm deformed
bodies. We in the US may have only vague recollections of the
36,000 Americans killed or the 93,000 wounded in that war; but the
Koreans vividly remember their millions of dead and the countless
deformed survivors. Paone sets forth his explanation primarily
through American military-oriented sources; the diaries of US
Generals; over 200 photos of war scenes taken by US Army and US Air
Force personnel; daily Press Releases from General Douglas
MacArthur's Command in Tokyo and finally American newspaper
accounts.
