Song So Wrong

The thanks we get for sacrificing 33,741 American lives in battle to rescue South Korea from the starvation and slavery that North Korea would have imposed on it without our intervention can be summed up in recent remarks by Song Min-Soon, South Korea's chief presidential secretary for security:

The US has probably been involved in the largest number of wars in the history of mankind. If we leave our fate in the hands of the US just for the sake of falling in step with the international community, it would amount to giving up our own destiny.

The remarks come in the context of attempts to get South Korea to go along with sanctions intended to curb North Korea's nuclear ambitions. Song is likely to become Foreign Minister when that post is vacated by Ban Ki-Moon, who in return is replacing the UN's moonbat-in-chief Kofi Annan.

Maybe Song is right: Americans ought to be less warlike. Maybe next time the communist dictatorship invades from the north, we ought to allow the UN to handle it without our assistance. It might help reduce carbon emissions to just let the whole Korean peninsula go dark:
