The Korean War is on hiatus. Anything could re-ignite it.Can't see a big problem here.
We want to get out.
The Iraqis want us to leave.
Frankly, I'd prefer that to something like Korea, where we are keeping a whole division on standby to defend the third richest country in Asia from the poorest country in Asia from a war that ended 60 years ago.
On a larger note, perhaps it is time for us to stop trying to be the world's policeman. We have troops in over 100 countries, and we are broke! The world doesn't seem to appreciate our efforts all that much. You get the lazy socialist states of Europe who spend less than 1% of GDP defending their own countries while we spend 6% of GDP protecting the whole world.
At the very least, we should actually charge for the service.
Okay...
Right. North Korea, usualy starving half the time, weapons that are about 40 years out of date. A war would last exactly a week before the North Korea Army runs out of rations and starts begging for food.
We have to pour food into the place to keep it from collapsing into Chaos. That's how "dangerous" North Korea is.
