Yea, we got plenty of bombers, but one of their real bragging points is the virtual wall of steel that they can put above their cities. These guys have had 50 years to dig in and have not wasted it. The point that i was making earlier is that Hackworth is being consistent, he called for the pullout back in 94 as well, what is wrong with saving some $ for other defense needs?

There is no defense to American bombs. That should be readily apparent. You can bet North Korea knows this.

Now to your question, pulling out now would be a green light for the North to take the South. Where have we seen this before?

If Hackworth is on point for US foreign policy the wise thing to do is to move as fast as you can in an equal and opposite direction.

He was wrong in 1991, he was wrong about Afghanistan, he's wrong about Iraq and he's wrong now.

We may not have cause to remain in the Korean peninsula now days but to shag now because the North Koreans have waved their nuclear capability, courtesy of the Clinton/Carter Morons for Appeasement, in our face is a decidedly bad idea.
