Why did the US intervene in the Korean war?

(Based on a true story, the same way that Operation Repo is.)

I got this question from a friend, thought I'd share with ya'll:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/history/worldwars/coldwar/korea_hickey_01.shtml
TL;DR: They didn't - the UN did. A multi-national force composed of US, UK, Australian, New Zealand, Dutch and several other countries, was asked by the UN to go to the assistance of South Korea as it was being over-run by North Korean troops.The military effort was commanded by the American Genreal McArthur.True the US did most of the fighting, but UK and commonwealth troops fought many battles and assisted the UN operation with as much bravery as the US troops.
That, or they were training for the Vietnam War. Who knows.
But honestly, as you say, my best guess: US had some serious penis-size-related issues when politics didn't work. So, they came and shoved their dicks up them Korean mothafuckers arses...

So why would the US display such a tremendous force in a country so far away (and this is where it gets interesting, and speculations occur): To show other countries, could be for example Vietnam (hint hint, nudge nudge, know what I mean?), that the US had great military power and was capable of overcoming any obstacle on their way in religiously spreading freedom to the entire world. Remember, as the Kwar was initiated, at the same time, the US was sending military advisors to assist the french armies in Naaaam in order to help them there, before the US themselves went there in 1959 when they had had enough of the yellow-skinned tint-eyed demons slaughter and mayhem bringing bannermen. Remember, this is all post WWII when the world was trying to settle down, or some were, like Europe and the US. Europe being highly influenced by the world war with a stagnating economy, relied on US troops to do the work. Many men died in WWII, european countries had no spare warriors to send, but the US, showing up late for the 'STOP - HAMMER-HITLER-TIME'-party, didn't lose as many men or suffer the same great continous losses as many european countries.
Also, US army consisted of seasoned veterans who wanted to go to war again, and kids (read: young adults, green soldiers) who would love to go to war again, because, US have throughout history had a war for every generation to participate in.
There are MANY MANY options for why the US should MOST DEFINITELY go to war. These are all possible options. I don't know which is right, the official reason will of course be: "We care about the poor innocent people whose houses are burned to the ground, the fatherless children and the rape of women... HURR DURR." But honestly, my best guess: US had some serious penis-size-related issues when politics didn't work. So, they came and shoved their dicks up them Korean mothafuckers arses...

112 app

Miljøministeriet, som åbenbart også står for Geodata, har i dag lanceret noget endnu mere underligt: En app der fortæller Alarmcentralen hvor du står, når du ringer 112.
Skide smart! Og dog... Der er lige et par men'er, som jeg vil vende tilbage til efter lige at snakke marketing først, det er trods alt væsentligt mere interessant:

Ovenstående er hvad Politi postede på deres Facebook, og jeg må indrømme at jeg troede det var en dårlig joke de første par gange jeg læste det, for:

• Hvem har brug for en 112 app?
• Er det overhovedet en rigtig reklame det der?
• Skrifttype, farvevalg og billede minder mest af alt om et børnehaveprojekt...
• Hvem er ansvarlig for det her? Afsenderen er Miljøministeriet: Kort & Matrikelstyrelsen på billedet men der står Geodatastyrelsen på hjemmesiden og det bliver posted på Politiets Facebook og Alarmcentralen takker mange gange for ens deltagelse... For mange kokke?
• (Dette er også årsagen til et blogindlæg og ikke en email direkte til den ansvarlige myndighed).

Nå, jeg downloadede skidtet alligevel med lovning om at når jeg ringer 112 og har fået ætset mit stemmebånd op af syre tvunget ned i halsen på mig af en tilfældig forbipasserende, så kan Politiet stadig finde mig - nice!

Selve App'en
Man åbner App'en og bliver bedt om ens telefonnummer, så de kan parre GPS-koordinaterne med Caller-ID når jeg ringer 112. Tricket er så, at hvis du ikke ringer fra App'en, så får de ikke din lokation. Så hvis du ringer og får fat i Alarmcentralen, men kommer i tanke om at du skulle bruge App'en, så læg på og ring op igen via App'en: For at spare tid naturligvis.
App'en har udover knappen til at ringe fra, et lille "i", hvor man kan læse mere: At når man trykker på den store røde knap, så foretager man et opkald, og at man kan læse hvornår man skal gøre dette, inde på 112.dk........ Og det er så noget som skulle have været inkluderet i App'en.

Vurdering:
Alt i alt får 1 ud af 5 mulige stjerner, stjernen tildeles for et yderst brugervenligt design, der opnås ved udeladelse af yderligere funktionaliteter.
