North Korea hands over remains of Korean War soldiers to U.S.
The U.N. Command said Friday that the 55 cases of
war remains retrieved from North Korea would be honored at a ceremony next Wednesday at a base in South Korea.
NK continues to make good on the promise to Trump to return American GI remains.
For weeks the left has gone on and on about this issue. This morning I searched the forum and saw what I expected, not a peep about this news.
Really and you think the US bones were found and kept in a separate bin somewhere:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
During the course of the three-year war, which both sides accuse one another of provoking, the U.S. dropped 635,000 tons of explosives on North Korea, including 32,557 tons of napalm, an incendiary liquid that can clear forested areas and cause devastating burns to human skin. (In contrast, the U.S. used 503,000 tons of bombs during the entire Pacific theater of World War II, according to a 2009 study by
The Asia-Pacific Journal.) In a 1984 interview, Air Force General Curtis LeMay, head of the Strategic Air Command during the Korean War, claimed U.S. bombs “
killed off 20 percent of the population” and “targeted everything that moved in North Korea.” These acts, largely ignored by the U.S. collective memory, have deeply contributed to Pyongyang’s contempt for the U.S. and especially its ongoing military presence on the Korean Peninsula.
“Most Americans are completely unaware that we destroyed more cities in the North than we did in Japan or Germany during World War II.... Every North Korean knows about this, it’s drilled into their minds. We never hear about it,” historian and author Bruce Cumings told
Newsweek by email Monday.
This is why North Korea hates the U.S.
