Decades worth of unfair, racist even, attacks against U.S. citizens -military and non-military; on-line proclamations viewing U.S. citizens as scum to be eliminated from their pure nation; Korean racists going to Washington, D.C. to, in light of Korean customs, rudely protest and insult the U.S. leader and his compatriots in front of the White House; and, murders and rapes of U.S. military and civilians for the crime of being, again, an American.

Many of the Dave's crowd are likely not aware of the simmering anti-R.O.K. backlash in the U.S. For instance, Panama City, Forida has a bunch of people who've been following the corrupt regimes over the decades treat crimes against foreigners as no big deal. Roh's stint in Cheong Wah Dae has been viewed as an insult to the veterans of this nation and those who were fortunate enough to escape from North Korea. The guy with the radio station in Yoido is somewhat famous in the U.S. as is the author of The Aquariums of Pyeongyang.

God, it sorks to see a good country like South Korea, a nation with so many decent people, get picked apart by loads like the Korean Left who actually seem to believe that racism and Kimism is the answer to their future.

How many of you guys and gals would ask the Ministry of Defense or whatever it is called for a gun to assist the R.O.K. if North Korea attacked her?

What are the chances of the R.O.K.'s status quo eventually causing a loss of respect from Britain, Australia, New Zealand, and other states dedicated to liberal democracy and human rights?

Just curious.

kind of a tangent...

racism and nationalism here are so powerful. i sometimes wonder how this compares to pre-world war 2 germany. it was racism and nationalism that hitler used to seize power and motivate the people to march to war.

and there is another similarity, the first aggressive action of hitler was to reoccupy the rheinland. korea has a similar area, like the DMZ, or even northern korea.

i am not stating anything absurd like i think south korea will start world war three, but i do see some potential for big problems.

any thoughts?

Most americans I know...never even think about Korea...most don't even know where it is. I actually wish Americans knew how a lot of Koreans felt about them....Let's just say a lot of Koreans would be on the welfare line.....receiving their kimchi and ramyeon vouchers....

There are lots of similarities between A LOT (45%?) of Korean people and Nazi Germans back in the day, eh!!

It's so bloody obvious that even Homer Simpson would notice dis shite.

I am,

Noticed It, Eh.

Hanara (GNP) and the newspapers are aware of the rise of anti-Korean sentiment in the US. There have been quite a few articles mentioning it over the last 4 years.

It seems to me the turning point when pretty much all Koreans doing/saying whatever they thought without any concern of a backlash came in the Fall of '02. There were the mass candle-light vigils around the country. 60 Minutes did an interview with General Campbell (??) and showed a clip of a flag being burned and asked him how he felt when he saw scenes like that. While giving his answer, tears streamed down his face. That was shown on AFKN and at least some Korean news shows. A good number of Koreans seem to have collectively said, "Oops. We've gone too far."

Dunno if this post is spoof or not, but there is certainly a train of thought on capitol hill that is now beginning to question the US commitment to the ROK. Certain inflamed feelings have been noticed and while they are not the raison de etre for this rethink, they are certainly not going to help.
