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.
