Why should the US spend BILLIONS to defend South Korea? I see no reason

[SyKoKo]

Last week, the US sent defensive missiles to PROTECT SK from the NK's

StrongHorse Trump said the SK's shuld pay 1 billion to reimburse us, the SK's angrily said NO

WHY SHOULD WE PROTECT EM

WHY IS IN OUR NATIONAL INTEREST TO DO SO

Let em be BLOWN UP

Fuck em

 

[jezzilee]

Its not like we are getting oil from them or anything

 

[Rightguide]

Because we signed a treaty to do so, that makes it the law of the land, sadly.

 

[NOIRTRASH]

To keep Russia and China outta Japan.

change it

or let SK make US to live up to it

they are getting a free ride

WHY?

 

[SyKoKo]

Its not like we are getting oil from them or anything

we are NOT getting OIL from anyone anywhere

WE PAY FOR IT

we shouldnt, we should TAKE IT!

 

[SyKoKo]

withdraw the THADS unless they pay for it

 

[Rightguide]

WHY?

We'd have to abrogate our treaty responsibility. Until the advent of nukes on the peninsula, the ROK army would probably have no problem wiping the deck with the Norks on their own, but the Democrats changed the world forever when Jimmy Carter handing nukes to the Pakistanis, Bill Clinton the Norks, and Obama giving them to Iran.

 

[Rightguide]

withdraw the THADS unless they pay for it

They're there to protect our forces as well. we'd have to really make Code PInk and the other Commies happy and bring them home too, and start digging bomb shelters in the backyard again.

Do you want to turn all of Korea over to the Red Chinese? Will Japan be next? Should we bring our fleet home and surrender the Western Pacific as well? Just askin'.

And there are several other reasons.

I place the blame or part of it on China and Russia for not removing that crazy bastard in North Korea. A reasonable leader could have been in place and a stable Communist/ Capitalist/Dictator blend of economy could be well underway by now.

This would have met all the requirements, made everyone as happy as they could be with the situation.

But NOOO! and now we and all involved have a nightmare on our hands that may take considerable blood shed to even half ass fix.

 

[SyKoKo]

I listened to an interview with T Rex, he said he is asking everyone at State.....to justify everything....not just say

Cause thats the way we always did it!

AWESOME

No, I dont believe anything will change

Its time to ask

WHY ARE WE PROTECTING and GIVING SK A FREE RIDE?

There is NO reason

I say

WITHDRAW

If they fire an ICBM which is a threat to us, we CARPET BOMB em, who cares if they flatten Seoul

THAAD ANTI-MISSILE BATTERY IN SOUTH KOREA KERFUFFLE:

National Security Adviser Gen. H.R. McMaster said Sunday that the U.S. will indeed pay for the roughly $1 billion THAAD missile defense system in South Korea, amid neighboring North Korea’s repeated ballistic test launches.

“What I told our South Korean counterpart is until any renegotiation, that the deals in place, we’ll adhere to our word,” McMaster told “Fox News Sunday.”.....BREAK THE DEAL!

He spoke days after President Trump said South Korea should pay for the anti-missile system and hours after Seoul said that McMaster had assured its chief national security officer, Kim Kwan-jin, about the deal.

“The last thing I would ever do is contradict the president of the United States,” McMaster also told Fox News. “And that’s not what it was. What the president has asked us to do, is to look across all of our alliances and to have appropriate burden sharing-responsibility sharing......Make EVERYONE PAY OR ELSE We’re looking at that with our great ally South Korea...........GREAT ALLY? WTF DO THEY DO FOR US, SHIT!, we’re looking at that with NATO.”

Trump said Thursday that he wanted Seoul to pay for the THAAD deployment, which immediately raised questions about the relationship between the two nations.

South Korea said it was Washington’s cost to bear under the bilateral agreement.

McMaster has said that recent statements by Trump were made in a general context, in line with the U.S. public expectations on defense cost burden-sharing with allies,” Seoul said in a statement.

The anti-missile system is set to be operational soon. Major elements of the system were being moved last week into Seonjgu, in the southern part of South Korea.

Russia has about a ten-mile land border with North Korea and about 12 nautical miles of a maritime border. China has the rest. Doesn't seem like enough to play them off against each other with little possibility of a constructive outcome. China has military forces massed on the border as do the Russians to a smaller degree.

I think any punitive action we take against the Norks will have to take into consideration targeting all of his weaponry capable of hitting Seoul which is about 25% of his field artillery and air to ground missile systems. A daunting task, but we cannot let him achieve his nuclear aspirations.

 

[SyKoKo]

So, we have no national security interest in defense of Ess Kay

 

[Mello_SixtyNine]

So, we have no national security interest in defense of Ess Kay

We do have 30,000 U.S. troops stationed there...so it would be kind of a dick move to let them get killed by 1.2 million active North Korean soldiers along with their 7.7 million in reserve.

 

[OldJourno]

Keep in mind that South Korea is duty-bound to come to our aid should those blood-thirsty savages from Canada decide to invade.
In these uneasy times with warlord Trudeau's incessant saber rattling, that deal with SK is like having money in the bank.

 

[magicalmoments]

The sooner USA goes completely isolationist, as north Korea has, the better off the world will be. The UN could move to Europe where it should be anyway.

Why should there be a UN?
Be it in Europe or the US

 

[SyKoKo]
