There was a UN peacekeeping mission in Korea 70 years ago. It drove the North Koreans back almost to the Yalu River, and then kept the Chinese from holding positions below the 38th parallel.

That was my war - Korean - and we could have driven them back to the other side of the Yalu but the UN was insistent we were to hold at the 38th parallel.

You can’t win a war playing defense.

Comparing our current UnitedStatesInc. to America 1950, is comical. We are a Potemkin village led by hollow men and transvestites who are incapable of making sound decisions. But keep dreaming. That’s what Neocons do best, to our national detriment.

As in Korea, you know who’d be doing the majority of bleeding and paying on the Ukrainian “peacekeeper” side to drive the Russians anywhere.

There was no veto on the Security Council and it was 90% American.
