If they would stay there to show ""dominance"" (to take all that army to your enemy's border just to cut down a tree shows how much fear you have) with the K-pop,then NK would send a damn missile to just shut it.
Yes and no, the main reason was to show North Koreans and the Soviet Union the strength of the United States, but also as retaliation for the brutal killing of the two officers that were sent with South Korean workers to trim the tree. The lieutenant was unaccountable among the the dead, he was later found when a U.S soldier reported that North Korean soldiers would walk towards a ditch that was out of eyesight of the U.S. and South Korean with clubs, crowbars, and axes. Finding it suspicious the they sent some soldiers to check it out only to find the unaccountable lieutenant still alive but gravely injured. When they found him they tried to take him to a hospital but died on the way. The lieutenant was tortured and beaten for hours before he was found so the Americans were justifiably angry
No wonder, the south koreans knows their K-Pop is the strongest weapon they can use to stop North Korea from doing their propaganda, and trying to dare get in.
@@tmq0311.... people were killed over a tree. Planted by some dude that they worship because idk he's their leader? If that's not a reason to show force idk what is
4:43 >"K-POP" >japanese song bruh the song is a remix of "U.N. Owen Was Her?" from Touhou 6: Embodiment of Scarlet Devil, a game made by ZUN - a Japanese person. I think the remix is "septette for her" but I am too lazy to check.
"hey the tree is annoying" "yeah lets cut it down" "hey what are you doing?! stop!!" "uhmm sir, there is 15 nk should we stop?" "nah keep going" "i said stop!!" *kills the 2 US* "sir, 2 us is killed by the nk!" "what?? why??" "they said they are cutting a tree and got killed" "ill show those guys what power means!!" *thousands of mans later* "ok bois lets cut this tree" "hey, i told you not to-" "all nk units go to the dmz!!" "roger, send the babies up" *1 cutting later* "ok bois lets move"

slight historical mistakes in the video (in order I found them in): one, the US wasnt trying to cut the tree down at first, just wanted a trim of it. two, the 23 vehicle convoy had heavy machine gun mounted trucks and were backed up by an M60 Patton MBT three, there were not dozens of one type of helicopter, exact numbers are 20 untility and 7 Attack Helicopters And finally, four, there was also F-111's and F-86 Sabres, not just F-4 Phantoms. all in all this was actually a really good video, it had me laughing a few times, but I did feel like I should point the (albeit small) mistakes made, keep up the good videos man, Great job!
It is noteworthy that ROK forces also had special forces sneak into the midst of KATUSA soldiers, and they destroyed a nearby North Korean guard post while having claymore mines strapped to their chests
It’s worth noting that the original goal was only to trim the tree, the decision to cut it completely down was part of the show of force
Well ya people where kill just for trying to trim it so might as well take the entire thing down to show dominance
Well they got all the boys out. Might as well.

Ah yes, the time when America cut down a tree with “overwhelming force”.
Don’t forget we also have several thousand nuclear bombers in stand by
In America, we do everything with excessive force
Did we really mobilize an aircraft carrier for a tree?
@@thesuperspartens3217 yes. Your damn right we did. Its not about the cost. Its about sending a message.
That operation was definitely the most American thing I’ve ever seen and I’m an American.

Just remember that it was a lot. We also had nuclear bombers in standby in case also.

Fun Fact: One of the North Korean defectors said that it was the Kpop music that made him defect lol
"It's great music, okay‽"
K-pop is being used as a demoralizing tool? Now that makes a lot sense.
It's an accuracy
No wonder, the south koreans knows their K-Pop is the strongest weapon they can use to stop North Korea from doing their propaganda, and trying to dare get in.
Were all the extra teams of combat engineers bored out of their minds watching the one guy on the first team cut it down?
Looking at the songs used in this video feels like whiplash considering it’s actual content.

So I'm not the only one who noticed
The remix is called "Last Brutal Sister: Flandre S" by COOL&CREATE.
This was an inspiration for how I handled the tree in my neighbour's front yard.
Man imagine that tree started World War III
Nothing like a good indimidation show of our FULL MILITARY MIGHT...

In order to cut a god damn tree.
Oh my god the sheer comedic gold of this channel

That one viet nam in tree: hello there
It's crazy that this was all to cut down a tree
Operation Paul Bunyan: * happens *

i can't believe they brought an entire mini army for a tree
Imagine go to war over a tree, that would be like going to war over an insult to an ambassador or going to war over a few islands…
Oh wait…
Lmao imagine getting an entire army to cut down one singular tree 😂
The Homer Simpson chainsaw soundbite got me
Showing force just to cut that tree😂😂
"hey the tree is annoying"
"yeah lets cut it down"
"hey what are you doing?! stop!!"

Bet they neveer heard that kind of banger song, so they south played it to bait em 😹🤣
Imagine sending Soldiers with M16's, helicopters, tanks, boats, planes, taekwondo experts and everything you have just to cut down a tree
the Korean war is not over as an armastis doesn't completely end the war it post pones it
which is why both sides keep throwing rocks at each other.
All because of a damn tree
I wanna try this on cuba as a joke
*WE NEED MORE OF THESE HISTORY VIDEOS*
this channel has potential if more vids like this were made
The Home Dep[ot theme was placed perfectly, and that whole operation just seems kinda unnessacary
That was the point, it was a statement: "We could just roll your ass, but we feel like being nice. Don't push it again."
Where was it?
@@ANITA.WYN. when they were first trying to chop the tree down

I don't think they had enough man 🤣
Shouldn't have stopped with just the tree.
Yeah, they should’ve cut the grass too

The war was never officially stopped
