way to plagarize the description... i saw that on a different webpage, word for word... tool

[RevBillyRayCollins]

@lildevilalex Yes I did take the information from somewhere else, where however I can not recall. Though I never took credit for the description, this is simply a short video giving a brief overview of the Korean War. If you would like to write your own description for this video, with accurate information, then by all means do so.

Why are people disliking these videos? Whats there to dislike? I think some people who have disagreed with me on the civil war are disliking these just to get back at me.....

The "Glorious Glosters" from South West England - this was the Gloucestershire Regiment and they fought as an infantry regiment of the British Army. About 700 "Glorious Glosters" held out against 10,000 Chinese troops for three nights during the Battle of Imjin River in April 1951. A former work colleague of mine was a 'Glorious Gloster' and he was eventually captured by the Chinese after running out of ammunition. It remains the bloodiest battle fought by British Forces since World War 2.

Why are we 'helping' Libya, and not North Korea, where millions of people are getting terribly oppressed, are starving and are getting murdered in concentration camps like Yodok or Hoeryong?

[RevBillyRayCollins]

@SpecusNeofolk Well if you ask me, we shouldn't be helping anybody. But if I were to answer your questionn I would say it's because Libya couldn't launch an effective attack against the U.S. military, North Korea has a functional army and plenty of missiles. It would be World War III if we attacked North Korea, it's nothing more than a scuffle when dealing with Libya.

[SpecusNeofolk]

@RevBillyRayCollins I know that it would cause major destruction, but how can the world just watch how this all is happening? The west was liberated from the nazi oppression after all.. It disgusts me to read personal stories and watch documentaries about North Korea. The things that are happening there are so inhumane and terrifying, it's madness...

[RevBillyRayCollins]

@SpecusNeofolk Well you know, differences in opinion. I don't think we should get involved in issues that really don't affect us. That's why I believe we should leave North Korea, the Middle East, Central and South America, and everyone else alone. We need to get out of the U.N. and N.A.T.O. and they can have at it once we leave them.

[RevBillyRayCollins]

@Ace4929 Yeah, my grandfather fought in Korea, he never told us stories about it though. I wish he had because I would have used it in the video. How did you like the music to this video? I hope it wasnt too over the top.

[Ace4929]

@RevBillyRayCollins I admit, the music was a bit cheesy, probably doing better in a WWI or WWII video, but whatever. Its probably more aplicable to that time last year in which NK accidently bombed that thing. I thought the world had gone to hell at that point, thankfully I was wrong

[RevBillyRayCollins]

@Ace4929 Yeah you're probably right about the music, but I just think the song is amazing. Honestly I was a little exited when they bombed it, dont know why though.

[Ace4929]

This is one of america's more forgotten wars, despite it having a historically popular tv show about it, and it's eminent continuation the most likely event in which we will bomb ourselves back to the 1840's. Its pretty interesting too, and has a pretty cool memorial in washington

[RedGoblinus]

Has this conflict officially ended ??!!!! North and South Korea still seem to be on a 'war footing'.

[RevBillyRayCollins]

@RedGoblinus No it hasn't officially ended and more than likely won''t. Basically the countries involved signed a temporary ceasefire, war could erupt any minute. Remember when North Korea fired on that South Korean island? I thought that the war was about to start back up again.

@RevBillyRayCollins If that Happens I suppose I'll be fighting in that war.
