  1. "NATO-like" it says in the title, Greg -- or should I say "Greg"?

  2. More importantly than China, the Soviet Union sided with the Norks, too. Soviet bloc countries were involved as well. 16 UN members played an active role in the fighting, but some provided only a token force, like Luxembourg with its 44 troops.

  4.  @silasnelson3116  You should hear the Serbs still cry about the time when NATO showed them that enough was enough.

  5.  @gregtriplex5878  Who did you mean? Railing against Western colonialism is like barking up a tree that has long since been cut down. Chinese and Russian colonialism is alive and well, on the other hand. Amusingly, China is furtively neo-colonising Russia while the latter is unsuccessfully trying to colonialise Ukraine in the classic sense.

  6.  @gregtriplex5878  So, who got Libya and whose colony is Iraq now? And the colonial overlord in Syria, who's that then? It must've escaped your attention that "the West" was very divided over the Iraq War. We were very consistent about the case for Iraqi WMDs being too weak to warrant military action. The US was very cross with us till they realised we were right all along. I'm amused that you Krembots never get this right.

  7.  @gregtriplex5878  Like I wrote earlier, you're barking up a tree that was cut down a looong time ago. The VOC was Dutch, by the way. It became defunct in 1799.

  8. Waddayaknow. And I thought William the Conqueror vanquished the Anglo-Saxons in 1066.
