The Bass Hole has a great post that really nails the situation currently taking place between the US and ROK. If you have any interest in the crumbling alliance between old friends, you need to read this post.

In my short time here I have really come to love Korea and I have a deep respect for the people, but I fear their political leadership is making a mistake that is putting their freedom in jeopordy. I am very upset about this. And in my job I will be seeing first hand the immediate human impact that comes when you throw a thousand people out of work. Good, hard working people who have devoted their lives to supporting USFK.

I suppose there is still hope that President Roh will wake up and face reality. But I wouldn’t bet on it.

Damn.
