Korean War - PART 28, End of the War, 6.25 전쟁

[OldWatchman39]

Dams are power stations,both sides targeted them during WW2,the UK even came up with a skipping dam busting bomb.The Nazis were charged because they blew the dams and dyke's to punish the population after Market Garden,30,000 Dutch people starved to death because of that.Article 147 of the Geneva Convention addresses starving the population by an "Occupying Power".When Korea was fought,breaking the population was used as a weapon by both sides.And no,this war has never ended

Yes, very true. The ROK govt under Yi Seungman (Syngman Rhee) refused to sign the armistice agreement, which technically relegated the Korean penninsula to "at war" status up to the present-day. Having said this, it is not important to blame S. Korea for this: Either side could have seen a justification for not signing. Neither North nor South was in the war just to go back to the status-quo ante of a divided country.
