RE: Old War Machines Outside the Korean War Memorial

in #korea5 years ago (edited)

Wow!! That was quite the tour!! I have always felt sad for the region. Never at peace and always being swapped and swapped back and tearing the buildings down to build more Japanese type buildings and now Korea tearing those down.

Can we have a do-over?

The marches and everything going on now in protest in Seoul? I understand, but, I want peace. Can you take out the man for a while? He doesn't need to be visiting anyone. :)

Love the big guns. :)

The worst part of the region is unlike the moddle east, they don't really want war with eachother. There is none of that religion inspired genocide going on. Its just serious nationalism, hundreds of years of mistrust economic competition and thousands of years of distinct culture. Actually, I guess that's some good reasons.

For the most part other than some independence fighters (the most famous of whom were all communists), they hate their modern history. It will be interesting to see what happens now that China is really starting to dominate the region again.

I do get that and it is better that it is not religion-inspired. That brings out the worst and best of all of us.

Extreme nationalism is what they are left with, especially when I give a read back on their history. I am not so sure I look forward to what is coming down the line. :(

I wish them well to find that place of peace for the next generations. If only the world would allow that.

They won't find peace because they refuse to look at the issue with objective reasoning. Someone else isbalways at fault. If japan isn't being boycotted, China or America is. The other is always at fault. Then there are the same internal divisions as in America and it's also becoming more and more polarizing to no one's advantage.
