North Korea Jailing Innocent Americans?

North Korea has sentenced American citizen Matthew Miller to hard labor for six years, because he allegedly ripped up his visa and demanded asylum from the North Korean Government. 

Matthew was arrested in April this year. The American Government demanded that they release Matthew, including others, to the North Korean Government to which they stated that "He committed acts hostile to the North while entering the territory of the North, under the guise of a tourist last April". Matthew was given a live stream interview to explain his case to the American Government and pleaded for them to help him "or I will be directly sent to prison". 

I believe that Matthew did not rip up his visa or committed hostile acts. I believe the North Korean Government is holding Matthew to gain publicity on the geo-political map, misleading the American Government from their troubles in the Middle East. North Korea also might be using the captors as a bargaining chip against America and it's UN allies. Matthew will go on trial very soon and the world awaits what America will do.
