115 youths in all. All younger than 18.
No one demanded that WMDs needed to be found in 1950 Korea, in order to justify freeing South Koreans from potential domination by Kim Jong-Il's father, Kim Il-sung..

That ain't it!
Saddam still had Pre-Gulf War CW stashed all around Iraq. It was suppose to be declared to the UN after the Gulf War but US forces discovered it after 2003!
The whole country must be chemical dump.
"Santorum said the two-month-old report was prepared by the National Ground Intelligence Center, a military intelligence agency that started looking for weapons of mass destruction in Iraq when the Iraq Survey Group stopped doing so in late 2004.
Last year the head of Iraq Survey Group, Charles Duelfer, said that insurgents in Iraq had already used old chemical weapons in their attacks.
Nevertheless, "the impression that the Iraqi Survey Group left with the American people was they didn't find anything," Hoekstra said.
"But this says: Weapons have been discovered; more weapons exist. And they state that Iraq was not a WMD-free zone, that there are continuing threats from the materials that are or may still be in Iraq," he said.
Asked just how dangerous the weapons are, Hoekstra said: "One or two of these shells, the materials inside of these, transferred outside of the country, can be very, very deadly."
The report said that the purity of the chemical agents -- and thus their potency -- depends on "many factors, including the manufacturing process, potential additives, and environmental storage conditions."
"While agents degrade over time, chemical warfare agents remain hazardous and potentially lethal," it said.
Reporters questioned the lawmakers as to why the Bush administration had not played up the report to boost their case for continued warfare in Iraq.
"The administration has been very clear that they want to look forward," Santorum said. "They felt it was not their role to go back and fight previous discussions."
Fear that Saddam Hussein might use his alleged arsenal of chemical and biological weapons was may reason US officials gave for launching the March 2003 invasion of Iraq."

Though about 500 chemical weapons - the exact number has not been released publicly - have been found, Maples said he doesn't believe Iraq is a "WMD-free zone."
"I do believe the former regime did a very poor job of accountability of munitions, and certainly did not document the destruction of munitions," he said. "The recovery program goes on, and I do not believe we have found all the weapons."

Spurred on by your dissatisfaction, I've composed a rudimentary table which compares the two "wars," month-by-month for close to 4 years.
I think it can be safely said tha, a bad month in Iraq would have been a good month in Korea

I hope to do some calculating, to figure out running totals for each war, by month and by year.
It should be interesting. Thank you for the idea!!
One of them is my wife's uncle
Correction:
If 3,000 deaths is some "magic cutoff point" for support for a war, Truman should have withdrawn his troops from Korea within 35 days of sending them there.
"Interrupt the flow of the spin."
Indeed. The key to defeating the IdiotLeft is to destroy their basic premises.
Similarly, this same concept writ large, indicates that there is a screaming need for conservative news generation sources. Even a truly conservative national television channel would be just a small step in the proper direction.
The genesis and initial orientation of news stories is where conservatives need to get busy.
