Actually, I think his "Ballad of William Worthy" bears on the situation also. The easy assumption (based so far as I can tell on atmospheric pressure) that North Korea is the realm of Satan depends greatly on the walling off of North Korea more by U.S. seige than by any unwillingness on its part to welcome foreigners. (Perhaps it is the realm of Satan -- but I have yet to see anyone *arguing* the point: they merely assert it as something "everyone" knows.)
