The Korean War Is Over

[watoos]

That’s going to be the big news from Vietnam.
Trump and Kim are going to declare an end to the Korean War.

Only a matter of time before we remove our troops from S. Korea.

1. Don't count on it

or much of anything else from this meeting.

[Blues Heron]

2. talk about ancient history

that's a stretch and everybody pretty much knows it. Some final paperwork on the Spanish American war would be along the same lines.

[procon]

3. Exactly.

There's no justification for our huge military presence if Trump declares the war is over. He'll get his photo op and maybe a tepid Bro hug from his BFF Kim, perhaps Putin will call and whisper sweet words in his ear.

Trump will have a new set of bragging rights to dazzle his loyal serfs, and the British bookies will be taking bets on when No Korea will invade Seoul.

[ooky]

4. It will be another useless photo-op. Nothing will happen.

Just like last time. All bullshit. Optics to create an illusion for his dumb base.

5. It was over in 1953

Big whoop.

[jmowreader]

6. Most of the shooting was over in 1953

That place is still a powder keg, and our ersatz president isn't helping.

7. In order for the war to be over, Kim, his sister and their top military people must

leave the Korean Peninsula. There are ways to do that where they would be happy to leave.

8. The South Korean military budget is larger then the entire GDP of N Korea.

I think they will be OK.
