The longer we stay there, the more we are resented.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
We are resented everywhere we have bases, from the UK to Afghanistan. Korea is no different.
Just don't believe all the negative hype. There are elements that resent us but they are not the majority and they are certainly not in charge. College kids everywhere look for a bete-noir they can safely protest. In Korea we are the easy target.
Many US colleges protest our own ROTC on campus. What does that mean? Very little. Let the youth march, it's what they do. Adult Koreans don't want us going anywhere for now. They want unification but so would we in similar circumstances. And, as I said, if we bail then we can't influence the manner and form of the unification.
