OSAN AIR BASE, South Korea (CNN)An American military jet has left North Korea Friday after taking possession of what is believed to be the remains of US troops killed during the Korean War some 65 years ago, the White House said.

North Korean officials handed over the probable remains on the anniversary of the signing of the armistice that ended the conflict, which claimed the lives of tens of thousands of Americans, over 600,000 Chinese, 600,000 Korean soldiers and over a million Korean civilians

It must have been torture for them to do it. Somehow they will find a way to spin this against Trump.

Remember the sockpuppet media said NK would not keep this promise. It took over a month for them to provide any remains. One possible reason it took a while is that they did not want to provide any remains that showed evidence of torture, mutilation, etc.

We probably can't ever be sure.

There’s no denying that may have factored in.

You don’t believe it’s really American GI remains, CNN? Get your forensic experts in there and start examining. Or, you could accuse the Norks of providing dead Nork dissident corpses from 65 years ago, and demand that the Trump administration prove otherwise. About par for the course with CNN.

In Yiddish, they would be called a “kochleffel,” which means a cooking spoon. They add nothing to the soup, but they stir it up.

Another victory. Let’s bring all of the others home so they can be laid to rest on US soil.

Thank you Mr President.

Just what I was going to say. Maybe they took a cue from what happened to Facebook yesterday, biggest loss in stock market history, 41 point drop, $100 billion in valuation lost. Pushing lefty crap just doesn’t pay.

“the probable remains”>>>>>>>>>>>

how I detest the spin-meisters at CNN. A pox on their individual probable remains.

Any bet that there will be a follow up on this crap indicating that the remains are genuine?

It’s going to take a long while to make positive ID’s on the Remains.

None the less Welcome Home American Heroes and may You All soon finally RIP on American soil.
