#1 Good job Trump and Tillerson. Hopefully Otto will recover, but at least for his family, they are all back together again.

A crucial mission for Tillerson MUST be the cancelation of the Boeing and Airbus sale of long range aircraft to North Korea's nuclear ambitious ally, Iran.

While the world makes the mistake of only focusing on NK's miserable record of inter continental missile development (a calculated distraction by Kim?) as delivery systems for nukes, these planes can be modified to extend range and to carry nuclear payload internally while on the outside appearing as airliners on international flights to major population centers.

#4 The poster issue has always been irrelevant.

Warmbier put himself at the Nork's mercy when he travelled to North Korea. That was his mistake.

Good behaviour or not, if the Norks want to seize a Western traveller they will do so because they can.

Also I don't see this release as a success for the US.

I hope for Warmbier's recovery but I suspect that he was intentionally put in this state and that the Norks made sure that it is irreversible.

I.e. this was a cruel and unusual execution.

This is a demonstration of North Korea's ruthlessness and power, akin to the WMD murder in Malaysia.

#5 seen online yesterday; If we didn't know about him being in a coma for a year, wonder how much about their Nuke program we don't know about

#6 I checked Ohio voter registration records for Otto:

Otto F Warmbier (age 22) is listed at 225 West Hill Ln Cincinnati, OH and has no known political party affiliation. Otto is registered to vote in Hamilton County, Ohio.

and for whatever matched Fred & Cindy Warmbier of Cincinnati OH, found that a Frederick A. and Cynthia Jane Warmbier, of the same address as above, are both registered Republicans. "Fred" and "Cindy" were the names mentioned in several news articles about Otto this week.

Calibrated exposure to low oxygen levels can do the same thing. Put the victim into an airtight chamber and simply drop the oxygen level to one that destroys cerebral function but preserves other organs. Norks have probably experimented to get that exact effect without killing the victim, i.e., no "heart attack" necessary at all.
