...and those who do not learn history correctly are simply doomed.

I've got exactly one reason why this proposal to emulate the long-term force in Korea is one of the stupidest things I've ever read. Korea was a traditional war between nations, with a defined border. The troops that are there now are nothing more than a deterrent against renewed hostilities. And the fighting was over by the time it was decided the troops needed to stay.

How, pray tell, is any of this similar IN ANY FUCKING WAY to Iraq? */me sighs, shakes head*

Are we calling this an occupation yet, or is it still a liberation?
