Carter goes to North Korea
The former president is planning to leave for North Korea on Tuesday in hopes of securing the release of an American man who was put behind bars for illegally entering the communist nation, according to U.S. officials.The country agreed to free 31-year-old Aijalon Mahli Gomes if Carter came to retrieve him. The Boston resident was teaching English in South Korea, but was sent to eight years in a hard labor camp and fined $700,000 on Jan. 25 for allegedly crossing into North Korea and for an unspecified "hostile act." Well, he's not a chick, so you know Clinton wasn't gonna go pick him up... Posted by: tu3031 2010-08-24 |
