Cha Supports Anti-Lee Cause for Beef Protests
Former Bush administration official Victor Cha doesn't see anti-Americanism in Seoul.
GWEN IFILL: So is this really about diseased beef, or is there something else going on here?
VICTOR CHA: Well, I think initially it is about concerns that the Korean public has about American beef. Those concerns, in my opinion, are not well-placed. U.S. beef is actually safe by international scientific standards.
But there, I think, is a larger issue here, which is what appears to be the general public's concern about this new government in South Korea, the first conservative government in over a decade, and whether it's pursuing a style of government that is considered high-handed.
He must not have received the special sunglasses! Listen, or watch, the entire interview, remarkable for its probity and sobriety.
