Is the Korean War(1950-1953) a good topic for an important history exam?
First, let me congratulate you for being sober this morning Charlie Sheen. Yes, it would be. Looking back at all the cold war conflicts that heated up, Korea is the only conflict that actually would have made a difference in the world today. All the other conflicts, Viet Nam, Angola, Congo, Nicaragua, etc. etc. where communism won have had no affect on the world today. If those wars had never been fought, the world would be no different today. Korea was fought as part of the “Containment of Communism” policy, but as it has turned out it is important today not because of communism, but containing Kim Jong-il, an sociopath with nuclear capabilities, and with his sociopath “me first” tendencies, with no respect or cares about anyone else, he can go over the edge of sanity at any time and start throwing nukes.
