Our credibility is on the line. If we let SK go, the bad actors of the world would conclude that we have lost our
balls.

That said, F22s are too precious to base at Osan. Keep them
in Japan or better yet, Guam. Make sure to spread them
evenly so that the island doesn’t tip over.

First - "we" don't let it go ... let SK fight for their own existence.
Second - with Americans fighting and dying in the ME for the last nine years, I don't see how any bad actors could ever come to that conclusion.
Even more so with Zero keeping us there.

You are not trying to assert that on a national command level, that our "balls" remain intact and easily located, are you? Those are long gone, FRiend.
