True. If not for their succession of approved dictators they would have been under the rule of those Lunatics known as the Kims. And in Kim’s Korea, grass for food is not a guarantee.

The badness of our role in S Korea (and decades ago I knew a thing or three about it) was that after WW2

• We took control of Japan and took decisive steps to layout a path to democracy.
• We took control of S Korea and shrugged and said “Whatever happens happens.” We did not so much cause there to be dictatorship to be there, but with a few simple-ish, sorta-easy steps we could have done there what we did in Japan.

Well put

But President Trump is coming into office in 40 days. Why would they do this now .

You answered your own question earlier:

@FreeAndClear

Opportunity.

Time is getting short for them.

Only have a brain dead person in the US presidency until next month.

I know and I apologize for feeding it but sometimes the urge is not very controllable

Refute it if you can.

@FreeAndClear

Because President elect Trump. That’s the logic

Say what cha want but will ask a few simple questions.

Did Russia invade Ukraine when Trump was on office?

Did Iran attack Israel when Trump was in office?

Did SK feel the need to institute marshall law while Trump was in office?

Point made.

Russia was in Ukraine the entire time President Trump was in office

Yes Iran continued to bomb israel throughout his presidency via Hezbolah

SK instituted marshall law after President Trump was elected

Syrian rebelrs restartede a civil war after President Trump was elected.

Nice try though.

World Peace!

Refute what? Your “points” are based on vibes.

@Ben_Natuf

because north korea

That’s their boogeyman. I think this is just internal poltiics. Apparently opposition has been styming his agenda and he is throwing a hissy fit but i don’t have enough info to blame either side yet

[Ben_Natuf]

is NK massing artillery a boogeyman?

[TheRedComet]

No, but it is the usual Tuesday over there.

@Ben_Natuf

You may very well be right. Like I said I don’t have enough info. T he excuse seems like internal politics and opposition leaders.

[Ben_Natuf]

no, it’s really not.

[FreeAndClear]

@Ben_Natuf

no, it’s really not.

Why would he suspend parliamentary action over it though

[TheRedComet]

North Korea threatens to bring “fire and fury” down on Seoul multiple times per year and will even partially mobilize the KPA to make it look convincing. It’s a normal part of North Korean politics.
