“What are the chances that South Korea will attack North Korea?”
“It’s probably half and half. It all depends on the will of the Korean President.”
This is the White House,
President Lyndon B. Johnson exchanged views with Under Secretary of State Henry Kissinger.
Hundreds of thousands of civilians are being massacred in the Vietnam War, but what is the United States, which calls itself the world’s policeman, doing?
They quickly got involved in the Middle East war over oil, but they don’t care what happens to insignificant Vietnam.
As massacres continued, public opinion called for the U.S. government to intervene, but President Lyndon B. Johnson was more concerned about the situation on the Korean Peninsula than Vietnam.
“What happens if South Korea attacks North Korea?”
“South Korea is now a country that can load 800kg warheads onto missiles. It has an overwhelming advantage not only in firepower but also in the number and quality of its military, so if a war starts, North Korea will collapse in a matter of days.”
If South Korea starts a war, North Korea will perish.
The problem is that we have no idea how serious the damage will be.
The Vietnam War killed hundreds of thousands of civilians, so can you imagine the scale of the damage if war breaks out on the Korean Peninsula?
The simulation concluded that 1 in 7 North Koreans would die, and this is no exaggeration.
During the last Shanghai War, the Korean army arrested and massacred uncontrollable Chinese people, and during the last Middle East War, they mobilized 260,000 people to take over Iraq.
What happened along the way is known only to the United States and its friends.
Do you think the Korean military would have come out on the defensive when simultaneous terrorist attacks occurred in 78 places? Massive massacres occurred, but the US ignored the issue.
Korea, which fought a proxy war for America’s victory,
If America were to criticize that, it would be shitting on its own face.
The bigger problem is that Korea is no longer a country waging war on behalf of the United States, and as world opinion fears, Korea can invade other countries on its own.
Ho Chi Minh is carrying out massacres in various places under the pretext of ‘national unification,’ so is there any law that says the South Korean president cannot attack North Korea?
In addition, when Mao Zedong fell from power and Zhou Enlai came to power, North Korea lost its ally, China, and became isolated.
Who would help North Korea in this situation?
Above all, the Soviet Union’s support for North Korea means that it will go to war with the United States.
“Soviet Union, I must have told you clearly before.”
“The Korean Peninsula issue is a problem that South and North Korea should solve. If you interfere here, can I take it as a sign that you are going to war with us?”
Right now, the Soviet Union’s top priority is rebuilding the collapsed China, and it has no time to worry about things like North Korea.
In terms of timing, it is a golden opportunity for South Korea to attack North Korea.
This is why Henry Kissinger estimated the possibility of war on the Korean Peninsula at 50%.
“The South Korean president I know is not the kind of person who would wage a reckless war. But now that China has collapsed, North Korea cannot receive help from either the Soviet Union or China. The chances of South Korea winning are 100%. That’s the problem.”
“Hehehe~ This is really… .”
President Lyndon B. Johnson stroked his forehead.
The Vietnam War was a mess, and now South Korea is starting a war and massacring North Korean citizens?
I wonder how American public opinion will view this, but honestly, from the White House’s perspective, it would be better for Korea to stay quiet.
But if a war breaks out, there is no way to stop it.
The Vietnamese Communist Party is going wild, saying that the country was divided because of the “American bastards,” and Korea was also split because of the conflict between the United States and the Soviet Union.
But on what basis would the United States block South Korea’s advance northward?
Even if there is a war, I just hope that ‘there will be fewer deaths’. The US had too much blood on its hands in the last Iraq War, and now it is time to exercise some restraint.
I just hope that even if South Korea eats North Korea, it will eat it quietly.
American public opinion was also concerned that the Vietnam War would have an impact on Korea.

“If war starts, we can occupy all of North Korea within a week.”
“How many casualties are expected?”
“We are estimating around 500,000.”
“Is it North Korea’s victim or South Korea’s victim?”
The same routine that repeats itself today,
I looked at the reports submitted by the generals.
The Vietnamese Communist Party has started a war for unification, so will South Korea just sit back and do nothing? The military, which has been calling for national unification since long ago, has submitted a plan to occupy North Korea within a week.
The problem is the damage that the Korean Peninsula will suffer from this war.
If South Korea fires artillery, will North Korea stay still? South Korea’s capital, Gyeongseong, is only 38km away from North Korea.
Didn’t the last time North Korea fired a shell that landed 28km away from Gyeongseong and cause chaos? Also, Gyeongseong has a population of over 7 million. How much damage would South Korea suffer if war broke out?
One way is to pour all your firepower into Pyongyang before North Korea fires its artillery, but that is not something a permanent member of the UN Security Council should do.
The U.S. White House is also concerned about the massacre that South Korea may commit in North Korea.
It was also confirmed that the U.S. State Department submitted a report to the White House stating that the South Korean military would kill one-seventh of North Korea’s population.
‘National unification? Is that important?’
I am a person who has had this thought in my heart for a long time.
What on earth is this damn national unification that makes Ho Chi Minh start a war and massacre hundreds of thousands of people?
What’s the point of going to such lengths to achieve unification?
If Kim Il-sung were in my position, he would have started the war without hesitation, but I am not that ignorant.
The reason we sent troops to Shanghai and the Middle East is because those places are not Korean soil, and we didn’t fight in our own homes, but we fired missiles and even shed blood if necessary.
From other people’s perspective, I’m a criminal who caused trouble in someone else’s house, but I don’t feel any guilt about what happened in the past.
Because I did it all for the benefit of Korea, that’s the kind of person I am.
Even if the odds of winning are 100%, it is unacceptable for a shell to fall on my house. How much damage will South Koreans suffer while 1/7 of North Korean residents die?
I have pushed into a corner the generals who only emphasize 100% winning percentage.
“Honestly, I don’t care how many North Korean citizens die. But if Gyeongseong citizens die, get injured, or are forced to flee to other places, I have no intention of fighting this war.”
“But Your Majesty, if we launch a preemptive strike, we can minimize the damage. And wouldn’t we be able to avoid future troubles by uprooting the root of evil on this occasion?”
“That’s right. I can’t say that shells won’t fall on Gyeongseong, but give me a week and I’ll make room for you in Pyongyang.”
“Then let’s do this. Let’s evacuate all the Gyeongseong residents to the south and then attack North Korea. What do you think?”
Honestly, if we just leave Gyeongseong empty, we don’t have to fear a counterattack from North Korea.
The problem is that there are 7 million people, and is it possible to evacuate this many people?
If we evacuate the residents, North Korea will also become tense and prepare, and that’s it.
War is impossible unless the President accepts the damage, and when the generals remain silent, my uncle steps forward.
“Now that we’re on the subject, how about moving the capital?”
“You’re moving the capital?”
“Yes, Gyeongseong is too crowded. Geographically, it is too close to North Korea. For the sake of national defense and balanced development of the country, I think it would be better to move the capital to the Chungcheong region.”
I accepted this offer positively.
Korea has focused on developing the Gyeongseong-Yeongnam region so far, but now it must also pay attention to the Chungcheong-Honam region.
Dispersing the population will help reduce damage from North Korea’s counterattack, and moving the capital to the Chungcheong region will also bring the distance to Shanghai and Taiwan closer.
The plan to relocate the capital has many benefits,
What is the last thing I can do when I step down from the presidency in four years?
Rather than leaving a country devastated by war to future generations, we decided to leave behind the gift of balanced national development.
The planners immediately pushed for the relocation of the capital, and first moved some administrative agencies to Chungcheong Province.
World public opinion in chaos,
Is South Korea setting up headquarters in Chungcheong Province for war with North Korea?
The Korean people were also anxious, but I shut the mouths of the delusionalists.
“Korea has pursued economic development in the Gyeongseong-Yeongnam region so far. However, we have now concluded that we need to pay attention to Shanghai-Taiwan and develop Chungcheong-Honam to achieve balanced national development.
My fellow citizens, I am a man who will be stepping down from the presidency in four years.
What would be the point of me leaving behind a country that has been devastated by war? I would like to leave behind a gift to the people who have supported me so much.
“I tell you again, there will be no war. Don’t worry.”
The people sighed in relief.
If there is no war, that’s good.
As Korea did not show any significant movement, world public opinion also nodded.
I am a person who does not want indiscriminate massacres, and my actions, in contrast to Ho Chi Minh, were praised by world opinion.

“I would like to award the Nobel Peace Prize to President Park Sang-geun.”
Here in Norway, the Nobel Committee has announced this year’s laureates.
The Nobel Peace Prize was awarded to South Korean President Park Sang-geun.
Ho Chi Minh is massacring hundreds of thousands of people for the sake of national unification, but didn’t the South Korean president choose peace even though he was in a position to go to war?
The U.S. legislature praised his attitude and nominated President Park Sang-geun for the Nobel Peace Prize, which he ended up winning.
The question is whether President Park Sang-geun is qualified to receive the Nobel Peace Prize.
A large number of protesters demonstrated in front of the Nobel Committee headquarters.
“Park Sang-geun is a murderer!! Does he know how many people he killed in Shanghai and Iraq?!!”
“Is the Nobel Peace Prize awarded to dictators and murderers?!! If that’s true, I accept it!!”
In fact, a Swedish member of parliament once nominated Adolf Hitler for the Nobel Peace Prize.
If you know what kind of person Hitler was, it’s amazing.
Winston Churchill, who massacred the Kurds, was also nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize.
But in the end, the award was a failure. So, is it right for the Korean president to receive the award? The protesters brought up the atrocities that Korea has committed so far.
“The South Korean President arrested and oppressed thousands of Chinese people for setting an example in Shanghai!!”
“In the Middle East, it was worse!! He massacred Kurds and tortured innocent civilians under the pretext of looking for terrorists!! He does not deserve the Nobel Peace Prize!!”
If you listen carefully, it’s not wrong.
How could there not be bloodshed after starting two wars?
The important thing is that Korea corrected the order in Shanghai and the Middle East, and who is to blame for Shanghai’s development into a metropolis with a population of 4 million?
If you look closely, the Middle East war was caused by Iraq and Jordan’s preemptive attack on Kuwait.
Before we ask whether the massacre committed by South Korea in Iraq was justified, shouldn’t we first hold Iraq accountable for its preemptive attack on Kuwait?
They are only talking about the massacre committed by Korea without any context, but what would have happened to Shanghai now if Korea had not stepped in?
What about the Middle East?
The Nobel Committee dismissed the idea that President Park Sang-geun should receive the Nobel Peace Prize.
“Justice theorists know one thing and not two. If Korea had not made a decision for world peace, China would have fallen into greater chaos, and the Middle East would have been swept up in bloodshed. The Korean president prevented greater sacrifice with a small sacrifice. We highly valued that.”
The Nobel Committee delivered the trophy and prize money to Korea as scheduled.
But Korea donated all of this to the committee, maintaining its image by saying that Korea’s fight for peace up until now was not for the award.
Thanks to this, the Korean president has attracted more attention worldwide.
Will he really step down from power after four years without any regrets?
If that’s true, how many countries are in chaos because of the greed of dictators, people who should be included in the list of the world’s great people?
Several publishers have announced that they will publish a book about the South Korean president’s life if he steps down as promised.
If you want to write a biography, you have to do some research.
A large number of reporters flew to Korea to gather information.
