Re: the Korean teenage girls



At least JHK agrees it's a mistake and not a malicious attempt by US Military to mow
down Koean schoolgirls as The North wants to imply.
 
So, now we're determining whose fault an accident is basically.
The American military personnel seem to believe it's the girl's fault and
Korean Nationalists seem to believe it's the US Military personnel's fault for the
accident. 
 
If you were a Korean investigator and the group determined the accident to be the girls' fault
how would you break the news to their classmates and your neighbors?
 
If you were an American investigator how do you tell your CO that the US will have to
pay reparations for the accident?
 
I read that Korean lawyers tend to serve social justice and the common good,
i.e. try to please the Korean government and people.  I read that American lawyers
try to make money for themselves and then the client comes next.  Either way
it would be really shameful to turn this into a court case because it will end up
being about politics and money rather than the two girls. 
 
It would be nice if apology letters could be written without money being involved,
don't you think Mr. Kim?

Well, that sounds too presumptuous.
How do we know who made the mistake?
It could have been the soldiers in fact.
The right thing would be to set up a joint investigation body
to look into the matter.
