I would like to see South Korea remain allied to the US, but as long as the alliance is in place, I don't think China will allow reunification. So if the withdrawal is a step in the dissolution of the alliance, it is probably in South Korea's national interests to refuse to provide the bombing range and allow the Air Force to go.
(From what I've read about this, it isn't so much a refusal as a sign of the impotence and divided thought of the governing party.) |

Nah.. the U.S. Air Force base isn't stopping reunification. On this peninsuala.. its going to be a struggle of which governments is going to control the peninsula. The US just prevents that inevitable power struggle from taking place.
Its a South Korean *ignorance* that North Korea is just theres for the taking.. and its all going to be South Korean.. its just the US forces stopping that from happening - or whatever exactly the South Korean argument is.. thats what they strangely seem to think. |
