What i think is we should let them fight their own battle. 750,00 americans lose their jobs every year to illegal immigrants. We use our troops to benefit our selves before south korea. Its ok to go try to intimidate them with ships but leave our ground troops heer. At least send one more ship over to south korea, but we need to secure AMERICA…

Pretty sure North Korea = China in the different names of one country, or a military branch & a lapdog.

Hey Marine! I have and will again hold a weapon and stand my post. These people can say or think whatever they want. That is their freedom! Here’s mine:
Start the draft again, then attack our enemies. Every one of them!

When I first read that I so knew that there is going to be a bunch of hating from antis again…but for real? Just because money is involved you think this has to do with publicity? I think the girls are getting enough publicity as it is with their comeback. turning their good deed into such a joke is really really disrespectful. I ask myself what exactly someone has to do to not get bashing from netizens. poor girls.

I read the posts and wonder if people realize we never left Korea. The Korean War has been on going for 60 years. It is not a matter of our getting involved we are there and are involved as well as needing to protect Japan. You may recall our WWII treaty disallowed them to create there own military so we are it. North Korean people starve and freeze already while their beloved leader lives well as a deity. We need to stand strong and hope China takes a strong stance. After all if IT hits the fan they may never get paid. I wish that bubble headed fool in the North would come to his senses and stop playing childish games with deadly weapons.

The United States is still technically at war with North Korea, and has been since 1953. A cease fire has been broken several times, no firm agreement has been in place for over 50 years. There is a de facto state of war or if you would like to call it a cold war with minor skirmishes.
Whether anyone likes this or not it is the US’ business, and doing nothing is not necessarily in the cards. If the US leaves, North Korea could invade the South again. There is 30,000 US troops there and has been for over 50 years.
It doesn’t matter what the US does, it all falls on what North Korea does. If they keep stepping on toes and killing South Korean soldiers, however, I think it’s time to send Pyongyang a message.
What that is? Well an aircraft carrier buzzing arround is a start.

We need to get down on our knees and pray to the one who created us and put this into his hands. My son is a soldier and I am very proud of him and all that he has done for our country. We have become a country that thinks that we no longer need God and what we need is to pick up the bible and read it and put our faith in the Almighty and he will take care of the rest. How can we expect him to bless our country when we have taken him out of our country the very thing that we were founded on by our fore fathers. There is nothing that God can’t do Please people remeber this. I am so thankful for his son and all that he has blessed us with. (GOD BLESS AMERICA!!!)

The United States must not allow itself to be egged on by being drawn into meddling with unnecessary confrontations inflamed by the impudent misjudgments of any nation ally or not. We cannot set the precedent that one of our allies will feel that they can taunt a purported enemy so that we should then feel obligated to become engaged in a no win situation that did not belong to us. We must stand strong by setting the good example of saying no to this kind of mentality both nationally and internationally. Namely, that we are not going to allow any party or other country to obligate us to misappropriate our offensive power as a nation.

1. Convince our allies in East Asia that North Korea will not go gently as it should and China is unwilling or unable to rein in the North. Advise them that it seems the only way to bring peace to the Koreas is to militarily unseat the brutal serfdom that currently exists in the North.
2. Address the world to solicit $1.3 Trillion for reunification costs. Once this has been made,
3. Encourage our allies in South Korea to evacuate and disperse the population. Then
4. Naval blockade the North and strike hard at C4, transport, and Arty/AAA.
5. If China stays out, victory will come easily as the North has very limited supplies of food and fuel.

Lol y u mad tho
But in all seriousness. The United States is allied with these nations. What are we supposed to expect of them when we are attacked? Just to chill out and do nothing? We’ve already tried isolationism, and it didn’t work out too well. We’ll just have to wait and see. I for one don’t act like I know more than I do, and I have faith in our leaders and their capabilities.
