Any serious thoughts on this? We went off on some WWII tangents and the like, but I've read some articles where the possibility of current U.S. politics pushing these two together is something to at least consider.
Could Trump be making bedfellows of Putin and Jinping? If so, how bad would that be?
Landmines? What is THAT poppycock? A country Without Borders is not a country
You have no country if you have no borders. Even with a sea you are learning that. It is leading to severe social problems that will spill over. It needn't happen. Being nice is neither here nor there in a battle of culture and civilisation.
What a load of twaddle, you sound like a cowering serf. "The battle of culture and Civilzation". You are the defending the potential death of a million citizens based on the daft idea they are in the wrong Korea. Nobody is calling for no borders, you seem to invoke that as an excuse for barbarity.
Land mines are crazy. It’s amazing people sat around and came up with these ways to kill and injure. They are still digging out mines from previous wars all over. How many are on the Korean border. I don’t know if we or the UN banned them, not that it would mean anything
Damn I should have looked
Landmines come in two varieties: anti-personnel and anti-vehicle mines. Both have caused great suffering in the past decades. Anti-personnel landmines are prohibited under the Convention on the Prohibition of the Use, Stockpiling, Production and Transfer of Anti-Personnel Mines and on Their Destruction (or Mine Ban Convention), adopted in 1997. More than 150 countries have joined this treaty. Its positive impact includes a marked reduction of casualties, an increased number of mine-free States, destroyed stockpiles and improved assistance to victims.

Maybe you need more mines. The original Jews would gave been safer with them.
Don't play dumb. Open borders with no defence will get you occupied. The Romans occupied Palestine. Eventually they burned the entire country to a cinder. Mines were needed to stop that. But alas technology and different times. The Romans got hit eventually too. Border control and vigilance is a necessary component to cultural survival. Weakness leads to annihilation.
