美国总统奥巴马11日前往韩国龙山美军基地慰劳驻韩美军，发表了演讲。视察期间
用韩语说：“你好，龙山！韩国和美国一起前进”，并高度评价了韩国总统李明博。
据韩联社11月11日报道称，当天，奥巴马同参加过朝鲜战争的62名美国老兵和韩国
老兵一起访问了驻韩美军龙山基地。在演说中，奥巴马表示：“韩国军人今天也同我们
在一起。”并韩语说“谢谢朋友们，让我们一起向前进”。

奥巴马当天演说的大部分时间都在评价朝鲜战争，他还称今天在韩国服役的美军“
直接关系到朝鲜半岛的未来和繁荣”。 同时，奥巴马还称赞了韩国在朝鲜战争后的经

铁对美国的威胁大.首先你要知道，美国为什么一定要废掉中国高铁？
中国高铁从根本上动摇以美国为主导的海洋霸权地位并且直接损害了飞机制造巨头

据波音公司估算，未来中国20年内将需要购进3700多架飞机合计达4000亿美元，中

高铁不烧石油，高铁不走海路，美国以后拿什么来控制中国？美国的十几艘航母和
大量驻波斯湾美军基地岂不成了摆设？还威胁谁去？还拿什么来耀武扬威？
为了肢解中国未来高铁发展所形成的陆权世界主导地位，美国会不惜一切代价比如
利用蠕虫搞破坏甚至收买基地组织成员搞破坏! 美国的最低目标是要它局限于中国国内
，在世界上形成中国高铁不安全甚至是臭名昭着的形象，造成其它国家敬而远之!另外
