The first front in the anti-US hate groups’ agenda to get rid of USFK is of course the violence at Camp Humphreys against the camp expansion.  The second front in the hate groups’ agenda is the fabricated and exaggerated accusations about contamination on the vacated USFK camps that is holding up their hand over to the Korean government.  General Bell recently addressed this second front in the anti-US hate groups’ agenda:

This is an area where, in my view, certain groups worldwide and in the Republic of Korea have decided to leverage this issue, potentially to create some distance, potentially, between the United States and Korea, he said. My sense is that the United States government has gone far beyond what one would consider appropriate given the value issue of the land, the utility of the land [that] is going to be accrued by the Republic of Korea government and the provisions of the current agreement.

On Monday, Go criticized that statement. She also said the South Korean government shared the blame and that both countries should have open discussions about the environmental issues.

I like the fact that General Bell doesn’t beat around the bush.  He is telling it like it is in regards to the environmental issue.  USFK is losing approximately $400,000 a month providing security on camps with nobody on them.  This is ridiculous and a waste of money.  IMHO USFK shouldn’t have open discussions with anyone about this issue because than USFK would be legitimizing the hate groups’ claims. USFK should just pay what was agreed upon initially between the two governments and be done with these camps.  These camps are cleaner than the surrounding communities and the surrounding Korean local governments are eager to get a hold of these facilities but a few left wing nut jobs are holding it all up.

Maybe some US media attention to the waste of US taxpayers’ dollars might be a good thing as well, but it won’t happen because there are more important things to talk about in the US media like Britney Spears’ second child.
