Is the original post by AmericanInTokyo okay to repost if he deletes the profanity?
I, for one, value news of North Korea here on Free Republic, considering that I have a number of relatives who not only are within range of the North Koreans but also would be in the South Korean military response to any North Korean aggression.
One good thing is that based on what I've seen, the South Koreans are quite capable of handling themselves regardless of what President Obama does or fails to do. If worse comes to worst and the North Koreans really do attack, even though the economy of the South will be devastated and millions of people will die, “reunification” under force of arms by Seoul might not be the worst possible outcome.
Unfortunately, that applies only if the Chinese decide they won't back the Pyongyang dynasty. If it were not for China, I would have no concern at all and would place the South Korean military in the same category as the Israelis — i.e., people **NOBODY** in the region wants to mess with.
But when you've got a billion people, like China does, certain issues of scale come into play.
Reposting a reply after removing offensive language is just fine.
Sometimes a lot of good information is lost when we have to remove a post because of profanity.
