Hard to comprehend seeing little babies being pulled from bombed out buildings. Harder still to comprehend how any adversary would put those lives at risk by deliberately using them as human shields. I'll say it yet again war is hell and so is what it takes to win a war. I will say this and I know many of you will disagree... cease fires don't win wars.

That is what I said. The conflict will begin again at a date, time and place to be determined. Probably the fact that the 2nd Infantry Division has been parked at the DMZ since 1953 might have something to do with that? Warrior Base the last time I knew was still the longest continually active fire base in the US Army. Those boys spend their days and nights patrolling the DMZ.

It use to be the daily carnage wasn't broadcast on the nightly news. Hard to comprehend seeing little babies being pulled from bombed out buildings. Harder still to comprehend how any adversary would put those lives at risk by deliberately using them as human shields. I'll say it yet again war is hell and so is what it takes to win a war. I will say this and I know many of you will disagree... cease fires don't win wars. They can delay the inevitable but sooner or later the only thing that will win any war is total defeat or unconditional surrender.a fan wrote: ↑Fri May 31, 2024 12:13 pmYep.

Welcome to wartime "logic", cradle.
“During the 1954 Geneva Conference in Switzerland, Chinese Premier and foreign minister Zhou Enlai suggested that a peace treaty should be implemented on the Korean peninsula. However, the US secretary of state, John Foster Dulles, did not accommodate this attempt to achieve such a treaty. A final peace settlement has never been achieved.”
