#1 And he describes how his difficult life in North Korea was lifted from misery by a love affair with a Japanese nurse who shared his hatred of the communist regime and eventually helped him and their two daughters escape.

Can't wait until this is on Lifetime. Oprah will probably produce it.

#2 I'm sorry, are we supposed to feel sorry for this guy? The same guy who deserted and sought refuge in the most severe communist nation left? For 40 years? I do have some interest in his freak story, but only as an oddity. Actually, calling him a freak is an insult to those old sideshows.

#3 Ban this traitor from the US. Why waste any public funds on him by slapping him in prison. Maybe he can live his golden years in France or some place like that. He lost his country when he turned away from her that day in 1965.

#4 Can't say that I disagree with the comments above, but I think having what he knows is worth some quid pro quo. We have dealt with some very unsavory characters and handed them big bucks for a lot less than what this guy can give. Some of it may be only background, but what if one of the "American looking" guys turned up in a sensitive position. I would rather swallow the bad taste in my mouth if I could have what info he's got.
