Thanks for sharing that with us Jiro. As you may recall, I have a friend whom was a S. Korean Military Intelligence Officer. We lost contact years ago.
It was his job to photograph evidence of these skirmishes. Some were made public, others were not. When my father had his construction business, he hired someone who is now a LEO in Tampa. However, when he was in the Army, he served in S. Korea. He told me stories about his experiences there. One of them, I will never forget. They found tunnels every day. North Korea has bided their time, they will always plan to invade S. Korea. These "tunnels" were made for tanks. I have an uncle who was in the Air force and was also stationed in S. Korea. His experiences were similar. I also have been babysat (and still know) Korean War veterans. They have all patiently awaited China's response. Now, China has given their response. Anyways, the rhetoric concerning what China has said is clear to me. They have picked a side and it isn't us. edit: However, I am not too worried about China. It is very telling that we are better at capturing their spies than they are at capturing ours

China's wiser than us when it comes to foreign matter. We do not get to tell the Chinese what to do or what not to do because they have over 5,000 years of history. Who are we to lecture to them when we are a child to them? Quote:

When we stopped them from stealing our secrets, they "accidentally" clipped one of our planes and demanded an apology which they never received. But yes, 5,000 years of history but we landed on the moon in less than 200 years. So much for wisdom. Tianemann Square wasn't wise in my humble opinion. Those students that gave their lives to protest were the wisest ones. |

quiz for you - who specifically were we competing with?
not really. might be better for you to come up with facts instead of theories that exist only in your head.

Yes, I realize they are each fundamentally different, but have the same form of government. An oppressive one. That is why the U.S. will continue to support our allies, especially when they are being threatened. And yes, it often backfires, but it does not hinder us from helping our friends. We kicked the Soviets out of Afghanistan, only to have that backfire. And yes, I am critical of they way we ABANDONED the Afghans. |

Vietnam, the soviets supplied the enemy with all the weapons to drag us into a lengthy war. The U.S. made the same mistake they made in Korea. The Pentagon ran everything on a schedule and "politically correct" warriors ran the show. edit: But .... the Soviet Union eventually crumbled. |

However, force has to be met with force. China and N. Korea cannot dictate to S. Korea who they can and cannot be friends with and cannot dictate to S. Korea how to defend their country. The same military exercises that have been taking place every year will continue. sorry one last edit: N. Korea decalred to the world they have a nuclear weapons production facility, a week later they bomb the $hit out of S. Korea. S. Korea has been doing the same military exercises every year. N. Korea aimed at civilians. That is a big "no-no". the U.S. has a very big paddle. They will get spanked. |

A professional "good" reporter doesn't make unattributed statements. She didn't even make a generic attribution like, "an unnamed Pentagon source" or WikiLinks. Nothing. Until there's an official source for such information, I don't believe it. Why should I? Why should anyone? There's no way you can fact check whatever statements she throws out there.
She probably didn't give a source because it's an unreliable one. Quote:
