Why are we giving away 1 billion dollar air defense systems?

The fact is that the US has a stake in this. North Korean missiles could threaten the US. It is clearly a deterrence to prevent trouble. Also if a war were to break out, South Koreans make up the majority of troops on the DMZ. They would spill a lot more blood and that should make you happy.

Trump's intemperate remarks have also played a role in the South Korean Presidential elections. It could result in a President that will try to appease NK and we have seen how that has gone.

Can US missiles threaten N. Korea?

The US sold N Korea nuclear reactors 2 years before placing them on an "axis of evil" list, from a company Rumsfeld had once sat on the board of directors of. An utterly bipartisan undertaking, the plan was initialized during the Clinton administration and completed under the Bush administration with the US taxpayer providing financial assistance to aid N Korea in wrapping up the deal. Did your television not inform you of this?
 
The carrier groups in the Pacific do not have missile defense systems so if we are to be able to deploy them near Korea, we will need such an anti missile system to protect them.
Not true. When these systems were first installed, they were so sensitive that they were locking on to birds and vaporizing them.

You know, it's readily apparent that Trump doesn't understand how the military works.

This THAAD system that we have deployed to S. Korea are US developed systems that are operated by US personnel because it's a US system and has US classified systems built into it, so to keep our secrets safe, we deploy it to areas that we think it would be useful at.

If we were to sell it to S. Korea, they would have to send personnel over to the US to be trained on how to operate it, then take the system over, and we would have to hope they did it right. Even says so in the link...................

The deployment has also been a major topic of discussion in South Korea's ongoing presidential race. Front runner Moon Jae-in's top foreign policy adviser said Trump's suggestion that Seoul pay for Thaad would be an "impossible option".

"Even if we purchase THAAD, its main operation would be in the hands of the United States," said Kim Ki-jung, foreign policy adviser to Moon and professor at Seoul's Yonsei University. "So purchasing it would be an impossible option. That was our topic when we were considering the options."

Amazing how Trump is the fucking President of the U.S. and he has zero clue about this. The reaction from South Korea and our own people was basically, "uh, wtf is Trump talking about?"

Advantage? Him looking like an idiot gives him an advantage? The motherfucker just speaks whatever pops into his head. He probably just wasn't paying attention when they were going over it.

Your deflection is noted.

Well, if they did make him aware of things like that, then he ignored it. The THAAD system is US developed, US owned, and US operated. The reason it is a strictly US system is because it has classified gear in it, and we don't want anyone getting their hands on the systems.

In order for S. Korea to be able to buy and operate the system, they would have to send personnel over to the US to get trained to operate it before they could buy it (otherwise it's just a paperweight). And, I don't know if our military is ready to release secret gear like that, even to our allies.

It's why the missile unit is DEPLOYED to S. Korea. We still own the system, and only our personnel are allowed to operate it.
