Registering with the D.O.S. – I just finished registering my family online with the U.S. Department of State. It is strongly recommended that U.S. citizens traveling abroad do this so the local U.S. embassy can find us or notify us in case f an emergency. I don’t know of any American citizens here that actually register, since the long arm of the American government seems to be able to find us anyway, but even so, I registered today for the added benefit of email updates and notifications of U.S. citizens’ evacuation in case North Korea attacks South Korea.
In the news today I read that North Korea is getting ready to test-fire a ballistic missile capable of reaching Alaska. The two Koreas are still technically at war since the Korean War because that war never ended in a peace treaty. It ended in a truce on July 1953.
North Korea is constantly threatening South Korea and it keeps the U.S. and Korean military troops ready for action but most of us civilian residents have grown numb to the threats but today the news unnerved me more than usual. The North is growing more desperate for recognition and they have kept the inspectors at large long enough to develop nuclear weapons and they are crazy enough to use them.
All I can do is pray for the Lord’s protection and His intervention in the state of affairs. I ask ya’ll to do the same.
