Anti-America Demonstrators

I am dismayed and upset again to read the demonstration about the Anti-War and Anti-USFK on the verdict of the trial of deaths of two young Korean girls. I thought the young demonstrators got what they wished, i.e., the apologies from Bush, Collin Powel, the commander of USFK, and the appropriate compensations from the US government for each family involved.

I can understand the sentiment of Anti-War on Iraq but cannot understand the psychology in regurgitating the accidents thus further agonizing the families of the death. I think it's about time the demonstrators learn to look at the big picture as to how USFK does for protecting them and the country. It would be for their physical health (get less gas in their stomachs) when they begin getting rid of the obsession of remembering one bad and unfortunate incident( in this case an accident) but not appreciating the NINE good things done for them.

I do not understand their actions this time bringing back the truly unfortunate accident, unless, of course, these demonstrators have a political motives bent on toppling the South Korean democracy, freedom and her political, economic prosperities they enjoy now.
