How about yes...SK and the US can train in the very south, instead of on the border with the north. Under the condition that if the North breaks the agreement, China will attack from the North, Russia from their 11 mile border, and SK from the south. We would launch sorties from the sea.

Just as I’ve mentioned...Ultimately Russia and China want the US out of S. Korea period......they are not about to put up with loosing their buffer nation and have US troops on their borders...And the US isn’t about to move out of S. Korea....so currently nothings changed.

When North Korea disbands its nuclear program the answer is still not no, it is hell no. North Korea started the orginal war when they went South over the 38th parallel. They pushed us back into the Pusan perimeter and damn near killed all the defenders.

MacArthur wanted to go nuclear. We should have. The Soviet Union had the bomb for only one year and their nuclear arsenal was minuscule. They were no threat. Our nuclear arsenal was robust. If the Soviet Union had of used their small nuclear force it would have insured their total destruction. The vast majority of the lives lost in Korea should be laid at the grave of President Truman. He was timid and a fool.

I also condemn President Lyndon B Johnson. The North Koreans took our spy ship the Pueblo in international waters. That was an act of war. At that time we should have went to war with North Korea and not conventional. Nuke them and be done with it. The Soviet Union at this time was quite capable of destroying the United States as we could do to them. Brezhnev was not an idiot. He would have not went to war with us over North Korea. He nor we wished the destruction of our nations.

Each and ever major conflict since WWII has ended badly for the United States. It has ended badly because of the timidity of our executives both Republican and Democrat.

We must draw red lines that will not be crossed if it is in the vital national intrests of the United States. If the red line is crossed we must use our full forces to eliminate the threat. These red lines must be drawn very carefully.
