Al, > What is the purpose of the troops in SK these days?

To provide a check on North Korea as it continues its practice of brinkmanship.

Remove that check, and South Korea, Japan, and Taiwan will have to arm themselves. They don't have as much of a luxury to call North Korea's bluff as we do.

Unfortunately that would not make China a happy panda ...
