NO loose lips here. I will not post anything which is not available through media sources. Folks forget why we left forces in Korea to begin with. nK and the South both have constitutions claiming sovereignty over the entire peninsula, which basically means they have the right to govern each other's territory. The Korean War ended in a truce and a military demarcation line (DMZ) across the peninsula based on the positioning of opposing forces at the time. Pork Chop Hill and Heartbreak Ridge of fame are in nK hands, since the nK and Chinese forces owned the territory when the truce was signed for instance. nK has positioned 75% of its forces agressively within the first 100km of the DMZ with embedded artillery. The only reason you would position artillery forces on the forward line is to support an attack and not a defense. Oh, BTW nK has a million man Army for real. It's not like the million man Army Iraq claimed. This one is for real. The US is not afraid of this force with its decrepit weapon systems; the US would slaughter them wholesale. The problem is the WMD nK possesses, including limited nukes, substantial chemical munitions, and biological weapons. Seoul, Korea with about 10 million people is within the long range munition fans of these WMDs. We fear the wholesale slaughter of the civilian population of South Korea within these fans before US forces wreak a wholesale slaughter of their military in kind.
Time for another beer...I told you to post this on political forum.
