you should learn some history

I happen to know history very well.

believe your general fully intended to cross the yalu river as ostensibly rogue general
as with any financial institution, the rogue trader is only rogue when the trade went bad and the bosses deny authorization yes? or did you skip that chapter, and funnily, the rogue general courageously figured he needed to use nukes not being satisfied with sordidly machine gunning women and children under stone bridges

No, I didn't skip that chapter & am fully aware of the details. Any country at war makes any number of contingency plans and develops alternate scenarios for battle, most of which never get implemented. But your comment has absolutely nothing to do with the subject matter in my prior post in which I was responding to your insinuation that the US/UN invaded some peasant, stone age society.

china sent troops to n.korea at the invitation of the government in charge, i.e. welcomed, in hamoon's language you obviously missed that chapter

No, I didn't miss that chapter either & am fully aware of the relationship between NK & China. But again, your comment has absolutely nothing to do with the subject matter in my prior post in which I was responding to your insinuation that the US/UN invaded some peasant, stone age society. My very clear, historically factual correction of your comment simply stated that the US/UN didn't invade anyone & it was the communists that instigated the war be invading another society. Correct?

re any korean women & children machine gunned under bridges by any courageous chinese or us generals search on google, "[country name] army atrocity korean war"

Don't have to Google that because I am aware of that atrocity. It happened and was terrible. What also happened and was terrible is related to the comment I made in my prior post - "Are you proud of the fact that the more modern Chinese army invaded a closer-to-stone-age society defended by peasants (in an unmentionable part of Western China) and also killed a lot of women and children?"

The Chinese army was responsible for the deaths of untold numbers innocent civilians. This too is a historical fact so I assume that, with you being concerned with historical accuracy, you would have to agree with this fact as well. Correct?

Don't you agree that what the Chinese army did there happened and was terrible? Yes or no?

If no, then I suggest it's you who needs to learn some history.
