Call me unfair, but I do not believe that the Hani would have published a survey that showed support for the troop dispatch. As it stands, the tone of the "debate" on the deployment -- and the number of troops, a reported 3,000 -- makes it seem like the move is more a gesture to allow South Korea to feel like it is doing something to help the U.S. and Iraq than an actually helpful deployment. Roh announced his "decision" on Oct 18 as a downpayment for a good meeting with Bush in Bangkok. But he has waffled badly on settling the bill....

This military does not just pull out because it's been hard. We'll be there for a long time, if we have to. I can’t think of an Army in the world that is not more dedicated.

First, I'll try to frequent your site more often, because some of your points caught my attention. A lot of times I try to talk to foreigners and Koreans about my views, but I always end up sounding pro U.S or pro ROK. I enjoyed your comment about hating foreigners that always bitch about and Korea and the always objective Hankyoreh. And their lovely motto of, "it's not our fault, it's not Korea's fault, blame everything on the Yankees..!" Anyhow, I know the post might seem random, but I need to a source to vent some bottled up anger. Korea Herald didn't really like me too much. =( doesntmatter Hmmmm~

When private piano teachers write "??씲?????┑??째?????졙???짚" on their doors and some shamans have "....??쨈?????째?????졙? on theirs, you know its a Korean desire to put "research" in those names, even when translated from names that didn't have them. :-) Good thinking, to check Hani's eddie after an event like that.
