It would just be extremely dumb to do it but I don't doubt they can. Hegemonic imperialism has simply replaced territorial imperialism. Saying it's a "sphere of influence" is just nitpicking :/. Under dominion not only sounds better anyhow, in political, military, and/or economic terms, it is effectively how hegemonic imperialism works to a strong degree. But yes, extremely dumb is correct (although it is a bit of an understatement). The same goes for Europe, Canada, Japan, and whatever other holdings we have. | ||

On the other hand: At least he cares. Too many people just don't give a flying to whatever happens outside their borders. If he's still as passionate about right and wrong when he grows up, maybe he'll actually make a change for the better. | ||

Whenever the ship gets to it's destination, it will submerge itself just enough to that the flotation devices on the radar platform raise it off the ship so it can move under it's own power.. After that, the platform will be able to move around freely. | ||

I read an article a few years ago in which an alleged poll among South Korea's military cadets showed that when cadets were asked to name South Korea's main enemy, 34% chose the United States, more than the 33% who selected North Korea. There is a inkling of truth, however little, to accusations of North Korean propaganda that the South Korean government is an American puppet regime. This is does not apply to domestic policy, but the American connection does severely restrict the independence of South Korea's foreign policy. As I recall, the standoff between the Bush administration and Pyongyang practically subsumed the attempts by the Roh government to establish an independent policy vis-a-vis north Korea. I did not understand then, and I do not understand now, how trans-pacific solidarity can be built on the back of an 'America First' policy on the Korean peninsula. | ||

I'm just wondering if there's a possibility that China would be using NK as a puppet to start this war? Does China have anything to gain if there actually is a war? Also what are the ramifications for China if they chose to break their defense treaty with NK? I doubt the world would care but would it be bad for them? the gains will be based on who wins that war because all pre-war plans can go up in smoke | ||

I too am a noob, however i can't see anything china has to gain from a war with the united states. Maybe someone else can elaborate further | ||

Every time I see you post anything in the general forum it is about "imperialism'. Literally like 80% of your posts looking at your profile, not matter what the topic, lol. You are the most boring poster on all of TL. Anyway, that anon post really is funny and kind of cute. I can almost imagine a really young nerd version of George Bush writing it... besides the USA is crooks part of course. Sadly for Anon I think 99% of of the NK population, even if they were to read it, would be very confused considering they've probably never even heard of the internet and certainly not the "good guys" from it. | ||
