Call me insensitive, but the South Koreans are not worth getting into a nuclear war over. It's time they've defended themselves. We've been there, what, over fifty years. That's more than enough. In that South Korea relies on us to defend them, they are parasitic.
Phil, I disagree with you. First most of the S Koreans are worth protecting. The student demonstrators are idiots & always have been, but 49% voted for Kerry here.
The only reason we have spent 50 years in Korea is because of the UN and their brokered truce. The UN isnt in the business of ending wars and solving problems. Yes we are a major part of the UN, but I would also say this is another reason to cut support to the UN completely and kick them out of NY.
The Chinese are our friends on this issue and will press Kim il without mercy. What do you think would happen to Chinese exports if Korea slowed down the export of cheap Chinese trash for 6 weeks? Tiananmen Square 100 fold with mass unemployment.
I agree with that. It's about time S. Korea starts looking after itself. They certainly have the population levels to support a large army. We need only provide a little military aid, reconditioned humvee's and such. Most of the population doesn't want us there anyways, so they can stuff their lefty attitude and look after themselves. I'll bet they will sing a different tune when they are forced to stare down the N.koreans at the DMV as part of their civil duty.
