Our Fallen Soldiers of the Koren War

This is by far the last thing I thought I would read about today. Once again I was going through some Y! News articles that were just posted in the past few hours and found this:

North Korea Threatens to stop returning US war remains <---Click to see article at Y! News.

According to this article, North Korea has asked the US 2 or 3 times now to go back over and get some of our fallen soldiers from the Korean War that ended in 1953 cease-fire, which they still have not replaced with a peace treaty.

This article talks a little about how we are still technically at war with the Korean Peninsula

Apparently the U.S. and North Korea were working together in order to find and bring back the remains of our fallen soldiers. This project was stopped in 2005 however when the U.S. claimed that they had insufficient security for the the personnel going. I guess the Pentagon is 'weighing' the answer, but they don't want us to forget that the administration for President Obama has a strong interest in getting our fallen soldiers back home.

So far we have gotten back 229 of our fallen soldiers in 33 different joint projects.

Now if you want my opinion, I don't know what the heck that fella at the Pentagon has to 'weigh'. I mean, those soldier gave their LIVES to fight for this country, and now they want to stop bringing them home. How is this the home of the brave, when the brave don't make it back due to decisions out of their hands?
