#1 so....why do we care about the SKors? They have the capability to defend themselves. They're getting to sound as ungrateful as the Germans, and of course, the French. Pull the 37,000 GI's out and let these bastards stew in their own kimchi

#2 The SKors have a mind boggling reality to deal with:
if NK collapses and wants to join SK, it is an economic nightmare
if NK invades, it is a military and economic nightmare
if US takes out troops, it is an economic setback and encourages an NK invasion
if SK politicians stop blaming the US, they will have to deal with their own problems
bummer

#3 SKor having to absorb a primitive and (self-)devastated NKor brings to mind Miss Piggy's admonition never to eat anything bigger than your head. Germany's had a pretty large case of indigestion for the past ten years, and East Germany was modernity itself next to NKor.

#4 Its unfortunate that leaving Skorea now would look like appeasement to the Nkoreans. Otherwise I'd be all for it.

#5 This one is from the KCNA as well, right?

#6 Don't you realize that the 10 warranty on your neighbor's Kia would be worthless if SKor fell? Not to mention your LG TV or Samsung appliances. What would we do?
