The Lesser of the two evils!

So I heard on the news today that South Korea is offering North Korea hekp with thier massive electicity problems if they will stop nuclear weapon prolifiration programs. The commentator was a Expert on the Korea issue and he went on to discuss how N. Korea is not willing to make any commitments unless the US agress to stop its policy of regime change, whihc all seems logical to me, compromise is only compromise when both side have to give things up. Nuclear proliferation for No Regime change. Unfortunatley the US has failed to amke these comittment s and does not seem likely they will in this next round of talks. What scared me today was that this Commentator also said the at this point S. Korea will probably stay the course and regardless of what the US does will continue working with the north to have better relations because and I quote " they see North Korea as the lesser of the two evils..." North Korea is the lesser of the two evils of North Korea and the US. NORTH KOREA, the leser of the two evils, and thye have been known to kidnap people from South Korea, but they are the lesser of the two evils. How far have we sunk. Can we get ourselves out of this?
