  Oh, I see. Americans are welcome as long as WE do the heavy lifting.   Hey, I could not care less if those robotic, retarded NK's invade the south, it's your fight, not ours in any way. Not to say I want that to happen, far from it. But you are all Koreans, so it is your family squabble - &amp; your welfare depends on you standing up on your own two feet - NOT EUROPEANS / Americans - fighting for the yellow man.   China got you scared? I do not blame you; they are your bully neighbor, after all. But no White man or European nation has an axe to grind between you &amp; your dog eating neighbors.   Our job is not to be referees or the world's policemen.  Besides, I think (&amp; could be wrong) that S. Korea has like double (or more?) the population than the north, correct?   Fight your own wars.   We have nothing to gain by spilling Aryan blood for Mongols of any stripe. There is a severe shortage of European stock in this world, whereas Orientals are the most common human life form. Our priorities must be our own welfare â &amp; no one elseâs.  Well, of course many asians feel this way also. But the political reasons were different than what you are describing. There was a reason why europeans and specifically americans became involved in world affairs and that was the threat of communism. Americans did not get involved in any wars before that did not involve some vested interest on their behalf or their security.    Now as the political climate can change it's possible i don't think american troops need to be in south korea. Koreans should, of course, be the ones to defend themselves and I think they can do that. As china is less a communist country and more capitalist, it should not be as dire a threat to koreans as before. Sometimes, that's how the groundwork gets laid first before things can get back to balance and some normality. The positive trend is that hopefully the world is moving towards a more sane and humane way of solving problems through economics rather than the carnage and primitive barbarity of spilling blood as a way to do business with other people's and nations. That is one very positive side aspect of technological advancement as people become less base.    On a broader level, how your neighbor is doing does affect you as well. So everyone should take care of their own interests first but of course we share this planet together and we trade etc and that's how progression happens for everyone and for everyone's benefit. No nation became what it was without the input of some outside influences. I'm just being realistic about the larger picture and not discrediting.
