Shame, Mark… You are a line thief.

Steal this one, too, while you are at it.

"History repeats itself… fist as tragedy, than as farce."

The current presidential election is a perfect example of that farce thing.

History does come back to haunt you… Someone check out what happened in the 1970's when the arabs cut us off oil for a time. Anybody see some of the exact same effets happening??

Hamilton, I often got hazed for asking such questions as table trivia because most of the cows and firsties didn't even know the answers….

American middle school kids can't remember the dates of the Koeran war, therefore they are condemned to repeat it.

I am ok with that, as long as the next war is only China and Korea North and South. Let have one more.

Countless huh? Why not list say 50. List who and when. That should be easy, as you have countless to choose from.

Can't name 50 can you? Why not list as many as you can. Unless… you are lying. Weepy weepy weepy about poor ko-wee-an history. Yet its all lies. Now go hide in the mud Morning Clam.

Are you kidding? The people on this peninsula have been cursed with awful geography and have endured countless invasions and foreign domination. I agree that Koreans in general often see themselves as the helpless and innocent victims of the world, but it is certainly rooted in a conquered history.

Its Koreans that make the Korean war as part of the fabric of their culture. Ita all part of their victim self image.

"One such oft-repeated statement is that Korea has always suffered invasions and wars. Koreans often say, “Our history has been tragic, for centuries we have been invaded by powerful enemies and suffered in their hands greatly.'' Every visitor to Korea is bound to hear such a remark sooner or later, and most people tend to take it at face value. This statement might correctly describe Korean history of the last one hundred years, but it is hardly applicable to earlier eras."
