What is wrong with South Korea?!

Occasionally you see a story that is so bizarre, so unfair, you can scarcely believe it: More South Korean army cadets view America as their main enemy than North Korea. (Via the Tank.)

We protect their country from the north for half a century, asking nothing in return, and this is the thanks we get? We could use those troops elsewhere in the world; maybe we should. (Yes, I realize that it doesn’t serve our interests to allow Kim Jong-il to conquer the south and get a new lease on life, but it can’t hurt to talk about it. Maybe it could shock them to their senses.)
