Alright, this should make for an interesting dialogue. If it's your first time coming to the site and you are seeing this, you may be thinking, "huh, that is a little insightful. It's not the sharpest wit I've ever seen, but they are making fun of American Soldiers and actually trying really hard to make a point - so yeah, let's give them some credit." WRONG! If you've seen any other international cartoon posting, you'd quickly realize that Koreans can be racist, ignorant and blind about the rest of the world and what goes on in other places.
Usually I would laugh at a stupid cartoon like this and forget about it. I'm very anti-war, very pro-make fun of the troops, but I guess I find it offensive because someone else is saying it. Also, because Korea has never been in a situation like ours before in their countries short official life. But Korea has never been a country in which there was a large amount of perspective being used everyday. One of our students asked a friend why he was using Korean money. They said, "Teacher, You American, You use America money!"
