U.S. Republican and Democrat lawmakers are apparently at odds over a recent trip by several Congressmen to Seoul partially sponsored by the Korea Foundation. Personally, I’m not sure what the big deal is, but I hope they enjoyed their stay.

“Personally, I’m not sure what the big deal is, but I hope they enjoyed their stay.”
Sure, it’s probably nothing, but I can see why some people would feel uncomfortable about it.
You don’t remember “Koreagate”?

They were doing field research to see if their war on prostitution begun in 2002 on Fox News had made any headway at the supply side, because it certainly hasn’t on the demand side.
one of the sacred beliefs of the expat is that all the korean whores in the us are for korean johns. wonder why so many of these adds are in english newspapers. perhaps, it’s for the benefit of the expat when he returns.
‘koreagate…’
still nursing that wound or just another weapon to bash your wife’s people? koreagate is over 30 years old.
wow! can you imagine? koreans gotta shut up about the japanese occupation but somebigmouthinkorea can always blabber on and on about that which has long passed. man, the expat never ceases to amaze me with his oh so blatant hypocrisy.
ps i forgot to write this above as a side note:
tired of the same old shit from the same old expat gang? tired of the ‘hate korea brigade’? tired of their dronning?
why not take a look at the western confucian’s blog you can find on the sidebar? you might be surprised by some of the things he writes. my surprise is that he hasnt been villified by the expat posse.
at least not yet.
it’s nice to see the man can see israel for what it is. btw, we’ll soon be in yet another war on the behalf of yiddish state. the neocon never learns, but then, why should he have to? it ain’t his blood.
I get it.
Korean hoes are mainly used to serve Jews while they are plotting their next evil moves against the Korean people. Expats are just here to distract the locals from the real threat.
Seriously though pawikirogi, I don’t get your worry here. One guy likes to a story about Americans taking bribes (I am surprised you don’t use that whenever someone talks about local corruption.) and the other one pushes the idea that prostitution is cause by American soldiers. I am not sure why you don’t love the stuff.
“links”
Just as the “Sea of Japan” is not the Westerner’s concern, Israel has f*ck-all to do with Koreans/kyopos.
well, didn’t this post take an odd turn.
Pawikigirogi, what crawled up your ass and died?
Pawi,
Are you an antisemite because some believe that the Japanese are descendants of the lost tribes of Israel?
http://www.biblemysteries.com/.....sjapan.htm
Statistically, over 99.97% of cumstains dry harmlessly on fabrics before laundering. My question is why Pawi couldn’t have been one of those.
Also, where’s the link to the original piece?
‘Just as the “Sea of Japan” is not the Westerner’s concern, Israel has f*ck-all to do with Koreans/kyopos.’ 120 pound dogbert
uh, were you drunk when you wrote this?
Pawi,
They speak Hebrew - among other languages - in Israel, not generally not Yiddish. I’m sure a smart guy like you knew that, right?
No, nulji, just pointing out some of your typical hypocrisy.
Why don’t you talk to your co-ethnic, bluejives, about your feelings? He seems to have quite an interest in Israel/Jews/Hebrew.
When will the Dreidel stop spinning on Dokdo?
I can smell a Nazi/Korean, parallel coming!
‘i smell a nazi korean…’
here we go again; anybody who is not an avid supporter of israel is a nazi. do i have that correct? that ain’t gonna work with me. that’s the standard ploy of those who cannot tolerate criticism of the yiddish state. just look what’s happening to carter right now for simply telling the truth.
)))))
1. israel practices apartheid.
2. while crying foul about suicide bombers killing little israeli children, israel thinks nothing about firing missiles into palestinian neighborhoods often killing children in the process. the us never condemns these actions buying the line that israel has a right to kill infants, women, and children.
3. what do we get for three billion a year? we get three thousand dead and three thousand dead.
4. maybe if israel stopped stealing palestinian land, they wouldn’t get their buses blown up.
5. israel pushed for this war in iraq. now israel is pushing for war with iran.
6. 90%? what does this 90% look like? wow, 90% look like swiss cheese. don’t look like a country to me. look more like large enclosures.
7. jews onced lived in ghettos. now, they create them.
8. our policy towards israel is at the expense of billions of muslims. does that make sense?
9. our goal in the ME should be to create a situation in which the local population does not support nor condone terrorism. to that end, we must show the arab world that we are fair players when it comes to the issue of arab and jew. in fact, just doing that would go a long way in laying down the foundation of mutual respect.
)))))))
yeah, i know what the official languge of israel is. it’s interesting how similar hebrew is to arabic.
pawikirogi,
Marijuana is illegal in Korea, beware.
. Do you honesty believe you can reason with a terrorist? Jimmy Carter is incapable of telling the truth. We should go to war with Iran if they push.
Someone put that frog back in his well!
“it’s interesting how similar hebrew is to arabic.” That would be because they are both Semitic languages, Einstein.
Your numbered points are all just caricatures of reality and don’t merit refuting (what the hell is a “Yiddish state” anyway?), so I’ll just point out how absurd it is that you are a reactionary bigot when it comes to all things Korean, then turn into a faux-liberal bigot when it comes to Israel.
It doesn’t matter whether “we” are “fair players when it comes to the issue of arab and jew” when subjugation of Jews (and Christians) is written into the Koran as a command.
The Israelis are hardly blameless in their foreign policy but at least they don’t routinely call for wiping out other states as the president of Iran does.
Pawi,
Not only is the “yiddish state” a highly inaccurate term in a linguistic sense, it doesn’t give your arguments any more strength. Don’t know what point your trying to make with the Arabic/Hebrew comparison. Should linguistic similarities between Korean and Japanese somehow have some relevance to Dokto, the East Sea/Sea of Japan, or larger northeast Asian issues? Am I missing something?
Hi Pawi:
While I have always been complaining about Korean racism it is news to me that there is also a link to anti-semitism à la “Yiddish State” which I deem to be a racist expression. An abbsolute no-no for a humble German like me…
Bullshit, Pawi,
as has been said above before in this thread it is the aim of the Palestinian élite to wipe the state of Israel of the map - no matter what the US or anybody else might do to bribe them into not doing so.
But I know, the Koreans, not the Jews, were the nation most affected by the atrocities of the German-Japanese alliance. Sure they were…
Mutual respect…. that is rich!
Lest anyone gets it wrong - I was trying to be sarcastic with my comment above…
Not that it matters, but btw, although I there is nothing wrong with the great nation on the peninsula between Asia and Africa, I still wonder how Pawi managed to change his flag to “Saudi-Arabia” in a couple of his recent comments in another thread of this blog (sorry, I do not manage to find it right now…). Was that just coincidence or supposed to be a political demonstration ?
‘The Israelis are hardly blameless in their foreign policy but at least they don’t routinely call for wiping out other states as the president of Iran does.’
right. the israelis actually do it. lebanon, anyone?
‘we will bomb them into the stone age.’ israeli official regarding lebanon
‘israel bombs qana and kills hundreds of children.’ quote from newspaper
‘you’re a bigot for writing what you wrote!.’ whined the nasty little expat
what you wrote was easy. harder to refute the facts about israel.
‘KOREA! ISRAEL! KOREA ! ISRAEL!’ whined the nasty little expat
yeah, here we have an exreme form of bigotry. i write about israel as an american but the expat wants to focus on my race. tsk, tsk, tsk
‘and i’m proud to be an american where at least i know i’m free.
and i proudly stand up for my nation and my people. oh america, we are so beutiful aren’t we?…’ song of pawi
Now that’s a lot of content…
The “nasty little expat” focused on your race (mentioned it in passing) since that’s all you bring to Marmot’s Hole–you are one-dimensional.
Hezbollah in an unprovoked attack shoots rockets from in between apartment buildings and homes, using them for cover, and to you it’s Israel that is at fault?
‘we will have different standards when it suits us’ bleated the cartoon kyopo
Just because you call yourself an American, doesn’t mean you are one.
You are right Dogbertt, he is a nasty little ex-pat……
Pawi, I think you’ve convinced us all that abortion should be legal through the ninety-fifth trimester.
“koreagate…’
still nursing that wound or just another weapon to bash your wife’s people? koreagate is over 30 years old.
wow! can you imagine? koreans gotta shut up about the japanese occupation but somebigmouthinkorea can always blabber on and on about that which has long passed. man, the expat never ceases to amaze me with his oh so blatant hypocrisy. ”
You really are a moron. It’s quite clear that I was simply suggesting a reason why this is causing a minor scandal.
Long passed? Well…
