” ALERT: The United States says it is not moving additional military power into South Korea following artillery attack by North Korea. “

IF this is accurate, and there’re no steps in motion to reinforce the 8th Army - and I’ve seen no reports to indicate preparations for evacuation — then are we forced to conclude that the sacrifice-in-place of 28,000 American Lives is considered ‘acceptable losses’??

Obama thinking our military will “absorb” any more attacks?

I swear if anything what is happening NOW will cause something to burst open, and in some short order Obama will get the stage hook.

We can`t pull troops out of thin air. As for the troops already in SoKo,,,they`ve always been considered nothing more than a sacrificial trip wire, like our troops posted along the west/east German border during the Cold War.

China has Ogabe by his microscopic nut sack. It wouldn't suprise me at all that they are calling the shots.

In my opinion, China will be the one's to act against NK and essentially take over. A good exercise before they do the same with Taiwan......then Japan.

That decision rests with Obama, but I would love to know what the Pentagon recommendation was.

Bambi thinks we can absorb another attack so why would our forces in SK be any different? What a joke we have that is turning into anything but a joke....

The ROK Army could easily stop the Norks aside from some minor local penetration - it’s large, professional, and well equipped. Plus it’d defending it’s own territory and falling back onto it’s own supply lines.

NK probably lacks the fuel to even get all of it’s motorized divisions to the DMZ.
