#1 I'm not sure that we should leave 24,500 troops in the ROK. It's time to deploy them elsewhere. Fifty years is a long time to protect increasingly ungrateful and inhospitable people. Let them figure out their true feelings when they don't have the US to hide behind.

#2 I've been reading "An Army at Dawn" about the North African Campaign.... getting a good hate
going was a key to final and (belated) success.

#3 S. Korean military told to lose ’hostile feelings’ for the enemy

As long as the "enemy" they're referring to is the US of A, I have no problem with it - it's about time they stopped being hostile to Uncle Sam.

#6 We need to keep on our timetable for drawing down all of our troops in SKor. We will have plenty of airpower for air support. The SKors have all the resources for their defense. All that they need is the will, and that will be up to them. Heaven knows that we sacrificed 50,000 good men for their freedom. I hope that they appreciate it, but I have my doubts on the younger generation.

#7 
I think we should pull our troops and walk away. If the SKORS fall to the NORKS and millions are killed, it might just be the wake up call that the free world needs.

I know it sounds heartless, but there seems to be a willfullness to ignore the evil that exists in this world. Maybe a serious dose of reality might turn things around.

Besides, I'm tired of the U.S. having to foot the bill for a growing collection of ungrateful asshats.

#8 I'm w/CiT. If you're stupid enough to put your capital city within the range of 10,000 conventional artillery pieces - not much we can do for you.
