A responsible government should ensure a proper burial for its soldiers. Especially so when they are on home soil. It's the right thing to do.

apec, if they are 'secret' US plans, there's a high chance that no one here knows, right? Unless wikileaks have exposed them.

@gaijinfo - Correct. A 2,000 year old scroll looted from a Baghdad museum, written by a teacher, lamented the hopeless students and their parents. I don't think it was recovered.

I wish them the best of luck. They look nervous which is a good sign they're not full of it.

The Chinese leadership will continue to be egocentric in the medium term. The latest fishing boat incident with South Korea have shown they learn nothing from previous diplomatic failures.

South Korea's military command was seen to be indecisive after both the Cheonan sinking and the Yeonpyeong killings. SK has brought in more hawkish top brass. Swift retaliation is needed so that NK begins seeing the repercussions of being aggressive.
