Makes you wonder if they really have any bodies.
“Makes you wonder if they really have any bodies.”
I suspect they do. We had quite a number of missing service members from the battles around Chosin Reservoir and the evacuation southward.
These remains are a North Korean bargaining chip.
Missing doesn’t mean they found them and preserved them.
no, it’s fake news because president trump said we have all the remains already.
After chasing the North Koreans back across the 38th parallel, the Americans established defensive positions deep in North Korea. The positions were weak and thin. McArthurs generals disregaarded their intelligence and lost their troops.
When the Chinese attacked whole battalions were anniliated. During the retreat, the Chinese occupied positions on ridges on both sides of the only road for retreat. Thousands os US Army soldiers were killed. The retreat was one of the most costly blunders in American military history
Those places with thousands of American dead are the places where there are bodies that can be returned. Since there are so many, the probability of identifying and getting all of them returned is not very great
Stay with Trump and stay the course.
Is this Jim Acosta with more fake news!
President Trump on Friday blew off CNN’s Jim Acosta, who asked him repeatedly if he could ask a question at a joint press conference with British Prime Minister Theresa May.
After complaining about “fake news,” Acosta — a favorite target of Trump — asked if he could have a turn.
“Since you attacked CNN can I ask you a question?” Acosta asked. Trump ignored Acosta and picked Fox News.
“Can I ask you a question?” Acosta repeated.
“No, no,” Trump said. “John Roberts got it. CNN’s fake news, I don’t take questions from CNN. CNN is fake news, I don’t take questions from CNN.”
“John Roberts of Fox,” Trump said. “Let’s go to a real network.”

BOL!
Did I miss a sarcasm tag? Because Trump never said that.
“We got back our great fallen heroes, the remains sent back today, already 200 got sent back” - Donald Trump
I was not aware there are more promised.
“Viet Nam because somebody wanted a war to make money and it, like the prior conflict in Korea ended in a stalemate”
Wrong. Militarily we won the war.
The Tet offensive decimated the Viet Cong to a point to where they were no longer combat effective. The NVA also lost a lot of their best troops. In fact Tet was North Vietnam’s equivalent of nazi Germany’s Ardennes Counteroffensive.
If the Linebacker bombing campaign was allowed to continue for another two to three days the north would have folded like a cheap suit.
We only “lost” the war on political grounds because of traitors like walter kronkite and the rest of the lying media who went all in for their communist friends and turned the public against the war.
Agree, we won in that respect but not in the traditional model
As you said and we agree:
We only “lost” the war on political grounds because of traitors like walter kronkite and the rest of the lying media who went all in for their communist friends and turned the public against the war.
Korean War was a similar one, an agreement that is still in place to stop but not make peace. Vietnam is a place we can visit freely, North Korea, not so much, it can be done but not the same as if they are one nation
There are 7700 unaccounted for in NK.
