Globalization was going to happen
anyway..
As far as the current administration we have no
idea what their ultimate Intentions are?
Just like Vietnam..we will get in a big
mess.
Especially if it is not in the REAL interest
of the USA
instead of the Special Interests that are
dominating our countries intent.
With the right USA Leadership, IMO if there is a
war with NK they will crumble...
They have some sustainment but the USA
might actually get help from both China
and Russia, this time.
Instead of having to fight a big war against them
they maybe glad to get rid of a sore point..
The troops can fight for a week... but will run
out of food and water.
The current Bush administration does not have the
moxy or sense to do this.
Maybe the next administration.
Kim Il Sung may have a poor nation but he is far
smarter then GWb.
Globalization in that area will create a highly
competitive environment.
During WW2 the Japanese used NK as the Industrial
base.
SK for food and agriculture.
The North Korea was close to raw materials and
the Japanese
built a large manufacturing base around
it.
A war would clear all the old stuff
out.

Bob, in '50 we still had a large army in Europe to hold back
the USSR.

Maury, in 1950 we waged a war on just one front. Bush has troops in
Afghanistan, and Bosnia, and wants to start war with Iraq. If he does so,
we will be strung way too thin, and the North Koreans know this. It will
be difficult, if not impossible, to go on a real war footing now that we
are almost completely dependent on foreign sources for things necessary to
build, and rebuild a war machine. "Globalization" has really done us in.
Those who have sold out this nation are now in charge of it. Do not
mistake "defeatism" for realism. The North Koreans will eventually occupy
all of Korea, just as North Vietnam now occupies all of Vietnam. As old as
I am, I fear that I will live long enough to see this.

Is this your personal opinion? I feel
sorry for a person that has a defeatist attitude. They are whipped
before the battle starts. In the 50's We were pushed back to the waters
edge and came out of that with honor. There is no honor in saying we
will be beaten before there is a shot fired. We may get there last but
we will have the most. I hate to see a war fought over that little bit
of land but if it comes to it we will pay the price.
The cost
and consequences would be just too great if we do not do our best and
win.
