        I would guess that he's flipping over this week. I feel like I've been in mourning for so much of our diplomatic progress over the years.

        Too bad he didn't support General Douglas MacArthur efforts to end the North Korea problem, which haunts us to this very day!

        Macarthur's idea of nuclear weapons against China was thankfully shut down. Pres.Truman used them to end war, & Americans had seen enough.

        Wrong! He had other ideas on how to end the war, but if you are right, then China should invade North Korea can give it some adult supervis

        Ok, war is best to be avoided. The little people, good hearts most of them, get hurt the most on all sides in war.

        There are many good people in North Korea that could best be helped if China would just take control of this country.

        And he fought the Military establishment seeking financial balance so that the US did not become a "Garrison State."
