American military presence is forever.
The Korean War ended 53 years ago and American troops were withdrawn. Well, some of them.
A half century after the civil war in the artificial nation (like Vietnam it was arbitrarily divided by the winners in WW2, with the same disastrous consequences) there are still 30,000 U.S. troops stationed in South Korea.
Just one more hair trigger excuse for another war whenever the ruling elite decides one is needed.
