Your Government is not honest like our politician.
Your Government always have said, 'we never negotiate with terrorist!'.
Im sure that if some hostage is American, you will negotiate with them surely.

Doesn't everyone realize this guy is a lost cause? Just don't respond to his ridiculous posts. That is what he wants.

Hey ? why do you say so ?
Im not foolish !
Is it a racial discrimination ?
Are you ingnore me ?
Korean people are not foolish as your think.
A lot of Korean intellectual will remember this accident and your action.

Peepers-
Yes, normally we would not negotiate with a forum member who uses strong words like, " Your Government is not Honest like our Politicians..."

These are fighting words in America! He would be physically injured if he said such things to a soldier in person!

But Mr. Shsong is our friend, and is only trying to learn English, and we know he doesn't really mean or even understand much of what he writes! He knows very well that many Korean Politicians are not honest, and even his President acts like a friend to communists. He knows that he would have been born a communist and would be eating tree bark like the North Koreans if the U.S. had not saved his country. He had some communist leaning teachers in school, and needs to know they lied to him.
His expertise is Computers, not Politics. We know his brother personally, a fine young man, and we hope to assist Mr. Shsong learning English, even if he never does understand politics. Sometimes it gets difficult. Don't worry, our side is winning.

Hi there !
[He knows that he would have been born a communist and would be eating tree bark like the North Koreans if the U.S. had not saved his country. He had some communist leaning teachers in school, and needs to know they lied to him.]

what does that mean ? I don't know what you say.
your English is always very hard to me.
I need easily expression.

Two Korean woman hostages get free from Taliban yesterday night.
Taliban said; They are very not good health, so we will get free them.
But I guess it is Taiban's just a strategy for more benefit.
Taliban is using a high degree of the strategy now. Our Foreign Minister said; it will be a very hard negotiation in the future.
Roh Moo-Hyun government is placed in the crisis by Korean hostages who kidnapped in Afghanistan. We are wathcing Roh Moo-hyun government's foreign policy.
I'm afraid but our government foreign policy is fall down.
Mr.Ban, the secretary-general of UN, where does he go ?
Mr.Ban, he didn't some work to save Korean hostages. Our Media will report about his value later.

미스터 송은 6.25때에 미국이 한국에 도와주지않았으면 공산주의국가에서 (북한과 같다) 태어날줄을 알았고 북한 사람 처럼 지금 나무 껍질을 먹어야했을 겁니다. 그리고 좌경적인 색채를 띤 학교 선생님한테 거짓말을 들은줄을 알아야합니다.

감사합니다...
이제 알것 같군요.

그런데, 이거 아세요 ?
한국전쟁때, 한반도는 통일될수 있었습니다. 맥아더장군은
한번도를 통일시킬수 있었죠. 맥아더장군은 완전한 승리를 원했습니다. 하지만, 미국정부가 반대했죠.
미국정부는 맥아더의 중국공격을 반대했습니다.
그당시, 미국정부의 지원만 있었다면, 한반도는 통일될수 있었습니다.
아뭏든 번역 감사드립니다.

Turnabout is fair play ~ here's a translation of Mr. Song's post:

Thank you. I think I now understand.

But did you know this? The Korean peninsula could have been unified during the Korean War. GEN MacArthur wanted a complete victory, however, the US gov't was against it...against MacArthur's attack on China. If he just had the support of the American gov't at that time, the Korean peninsula could have been unified.

Oh well...thanks for the translation.

Thanks,Willy.

I agree, and I think MacArthur should have been allowed to crossed the Yalu and take the entire peninsula!

But everyone did not recognize that MacArthur was right. It would have changed history, and probably ensured his election as a US president.
