I’m quite sure the majority of South Koreans are anti-American occupation and quite Leftist in their views.

The existence of the North Korean state has kept them much closer to us than they would otherwise desire. I mean, they can see what’s happening economically and militarily in China - they would become communists themselves tomorrow as long as they didn’t have to eat grass and worship Little Rocket Man.

This Korea summit involves five parties intimately - China, the DPRK, South Korea, Taiwan, and the US. Four of them have to get something for it to work, and one has to be the big loser.

What makes it interesting is that we don’t know yet who is who.

I suspect the big winners are the US and China, China gets a united and friendly Korea, the Kims get to live, we get our troops out and an end to the Iran-Nork nuclear cooperation, with a Nobel Peace Prize for Trump and more time with his family for Robert Mueller, and Taiwan - Taiwan is the designated loser, because the US will withdraw the “line of forward defense” promulgated by Dean Acheson in 1950 from Taiwan and we will accept reunification.

I really don’t see what China (or) Taiwan have to do with this, actually.

This is about Korea.

Korea.

We have several south Koreans in our area and they've been here for many years. They are NOT anti-American in any way and neither are their relatives back in Korea.

It's our presence that gave South Korea the means of their stability and wealth. They have good work ethics.

Granted, I cannot know enough SoKos to get a national view. But, I work with perhaps 30 families in our ex-pat group. EACH family is strongly pro-USA in SoKo, they are quite conservative, and VERY patriotic.

Granted, small polling group, but they love the USA and Americans.
