South Korea’s Drastic Measures to Save Itself


It appears that America is on course to launch a unilateral preemptive strike against North Korea because of Its Program for developing Nuclear Weapons, although 8 other Nations already possess Nukes with apparent impunity.   While we may hope that the North Korean response to such an attack from America would not involve North Korean bombardment and Invasion of the South, because of a natural hesitancy for North Koreans to kill other Koreans, still, for six decades now South Korea has seemed the willing partner to America and has given every indication that if America were to ratchet up a Fight against North Korea, that South Korea would jump in as a Full Partner.  Yes, the Propaganda put out by America was always in terms of a Defensive Alliance, which would have presupposed an actual Unprovoked Invasion of the South by the North.  Well, THAT is NOT what is about to happen.   The Americans, because they are simply a little antsy about the mere possibility of being Nuked for No Reason At All by North Korea, wish to be the first to move and annihilate North Korea’s capability and its Regime.   But if South Korea is seen as a Willing Partner in America’s Attack , the possible conflagration could be almost beyond imagining.  Yes, the International Media has mentioned the Thousands of Artillery Pieces that the North Possesses; however, there has been nothing said of the possibly hundreds or even thousands  of Massive Rail Mounted Cannons rolled back in Armored Caves  that could be deployed in just a moment’s notice.  You see, the North has had since the 1950’s both the time and the technology to lace the Mountains and Hills of North Korea with Ultra High Caliber Guns, perhaps on the model of the Nazis’ Rail Mounted Gun that could fire 31 inch diameter 12 foot long projectiles weighting from 5 to 7 tons.  Those and the more conventional Artillery Pieces and Tactical Missiles could work an almost complete obliteration on South Korea’s most highly and densely populated areas.  The Newspapers are saying that Hundreds of Thousands of South Korean’s could be killed in this Crossfire with America, but the Truth is probably more on the scale of Millions.  After the inevitable period of Starvation, Civil Disturbance and Disease, we could easily see 20 Million Dead in South Korea.

 

SO South Korea needs to make it Very Clear that if America launches a Unilateral Preemptive Strike against North Korea, then it will be seen as an Act of War against BOTH Koreas.  South Korea, in order to Save Itself from what must be an almost Total Destruction, because of America’s Cautionary Whim, must put forth the Diplomatic Initiative that All Koreans will be Stand United against American Aggression.

 

Now, yes, the World Media tends to blame everything on North Korea.  However, It was America that Destabilized the World Situation, and not just with its Present Administration.  For instance, both Democratic and Republican Presidents, with Bipartisan Support, have supported Regime Change in Countries that had indeed done substantially what America had demanded of them (they were not Saved by Capitulation and Surrender – America destroyed them because they were Helpless).   Iraq was asked to eliminate its stockpiles of “Weapons of Mass Destruction”, and they did.  International Inspectors verified it.  But American Politicians and Presidents were suspicious and unconvinced.  Besides, it seems to be Good Politics to Never Believe an Enemy, and nobody ever Lost an Election by being a Hardliner and Getting Tough on America’s Enemies.  Wars get more Votes than Peace.  So Iraq was needlessly and lawlessly invaded, and the Regime was murdered off.  Libya was also threatened, decades ago, and Libya had complied and been rather well behaved.  But when the ‘Arab Spring’ came, it seems that Every American Politician had forgotten the Deal that was made some 15 or 20 years before.  The Libyan Regime had been a Secularist Regime and was besieged by no ordinary Pro-democracy Movement but by Religious Fanatics who would use Democracy only so far as it could emplace their own Theocratic Dictatorship.  The Libyan Regime would likely have survived this Threat, but America threw the weight of its Air Force and Navy behind the Religious Radicals… the same Radicals that would murder the American Ambassador.  The American’s might even have offered to evacuate the Libyan Regime, but apparently the policy was to let them die.  Then there America’s Role in the Balkans, where every Leader who sided with a Nation that America Opposed has been slated for Trial and Execution.   Now, given this International Environment where America seems to have a Gladiator Complex and must Quench it’s Democracy’s Thirst for Foreign Blood on a steady basis (Presidential Elections every 4 years, Congressmen 2 years, and the Senators need new International Incidents every six years), What Is North Korea supposed to do?  It Seems the Only States that America will not Pick On are Nuclear Powers.   In the present Situation, even if America decided to Negotiate In Good Faith, well, how long could that be expected to last?  You see, America, whether they realize it or not, is having a Constitutional Crisis.  Their Democracy has proven too Dangerously Unstable to be Politically Viable.  It is clear to everybody that the American System of Government has either Failed Already, or has been Proven itself Capable of Failing.  It is Clear that there is No Mechanism to prevent Nuts, Crazies and Fanatics from Coming to Power in America where they would have the Power to disclaim all prior Treaties and Agreements.  They don’t even have to Realize that these Agreements even Exist!  So while it would be Nice if America came to the Negotiating Table, we must appreciate the Position that North Korea is in. I tried to think of Another Way for them, but they are really just backed into the Proverbial Corner.  Their only other choice is effective Suicide. 

 
Yes, I am expecting a lot of South Korea.  Yes, America has done a lot for South Korea over the last six Decades.  But Blood is Thicker than Water.  AND the North Korean’s are their Own People.  Also, if South Korea has been following the News, then it would Know that American Politicians are marginalizing and even denigrating South Korea.   So NOW would be the Perfect Time to simply Ask America to Get Out.  Yes, it was Nice when America was there to Defend Them.  But Now it only appears that America is There Only To Get Them All Killed.  Help is Help but Hurt is Hurt.  The Alliance with America was Not going to Last Forever, was it?  THIS would be the Perfect Time to bring it to a close.
