The United States is engaged in a police action with north Korea that is in a state of cease fire. It never officially ended. It is ongoing.

Foot print in Asia is not the reason. We are there as part of the UN mission in the ongoing police action mission. Negotiations are still in progress at Panmumjon

We have major troop and air deployments in Asia..... in Afghanistan

As I said, we were never at war> And sorry, but the UN is not in SK, the US is. and we are there to provide us a base from which to stage and project power and influence throughout the region.

It's just silly to think of Afghanistan, which we can barely keep supplied, in the same vein.
