The two American journalists being held in North Korea are back on American soil now. Former president Clinton flew over to pick them up and bring them home. It is a good outcome, but some fear future consequences. It is not know what, if anything, the North Koreans were promised for this action. We do know that they at least got a photo op with the former president, but I noticed that he does not appear to be smiling in a single picture with Kim Jong-il. It may also set a bad president. Good end result, potentially difficulties down the road.
