North Korea warns it will bomb South Korea if it goes ahead with military drills on Yeonpyeong

Broadcast repeats earlier Korean language statement vowing another strike on #ROK soil if artillery fired into Yellow Sea from Yeonpyeong

NK keeps repeating this warning since weeks now. I fear they can't climb down that tree anymore .... .

That makes sense. Without knowing much about the climate in that part of the world I would imagine it should clear by tonight, although fog can be a bit stubborn lol.

Whenever one of the Diplomats from the US fly to a country on the brink of war they usually extend an offer of lots of money and aid to have the country back down.
Has anyone heard of Richardson bribing NK this time?
Happens all the time with Israel and the Palestinians.
The one thing the US is good at is "biding time", not resolving conflicts.

Well yeah. In some ways it would be better if they could get the drill underway as soon as possible, if only to stop the tension increasing even more.

Hardly anything new, but very inflammatory wording.

Janey

Janey - You hearing anything about alert levels along the DMZ? This Globe and Mail article suggests things are a wee bit tense up along the DMZ -

South Korea's patience with North running out

12/17/10

Patrons at the “DMZ” tofu restaurant don't need the muted television set in the corner to tell them when tensions are high between the two Koreas. They just need to peek out the window at the parking lot to see if there are soldiers in the trenches and pillboxes that surround their cars.

These days, the parking lot is seeing an unnerving amount of action. Late last month, troops were deployed there as the entire border went on high alert after North Korean artillery shelled a South Korean island, killing two soldiers and two civilians. On Wednesday, patrons and staff at the DMZ restaurant (which is named after the nearby Demilitarized Zone between the two Koreas) were sent scrambling for cover along with the rest of the country when air-raid sirens screamed and fighter jets conducted mock bombing raids, roaring over Seoul and other cities as South Korea carried out its largest civil-defence exercise since 1975.

Kim Dong-jo has been selling tofu here long enough to have seen countless such states of heightened alert in his parking lot. But this time is different, he says. A one-time supporter of Seoul's former “sunshine policy” of showering the North with aid and kindness, the Nov. 23 attack on Yeonpyeong Island crossed a red line for him. After years of believing his country should turn the other cheek to such provocations, he now wants to see South Korea punch back hard.

“Our retaliation [the day of the Yeonpyeong attack] was not enough,” Mr. Kim said, referring to the belated return of artillery fire that day. “Even if war results, we have to give North Korea a lesson.”

Such talk is suddenly the rule among South Koreans.

I'm tired of North Korea's bullshit. Just take out their leadersip and free their people to see what reality is. They live under this narcissistic, insane ruling family. Its pathetic how the leadership runs that country. Fucking pathetic. NK leadership is a fucking joke. They need to be killed.

its all bull shit who gives a fuck.

It funny there are no troops deployment in China and Russia Far East.

How can war start without these two North Korea Allies making troop movements?

There will be no war.

However, i do know china has 500,000 army forces at the Border of North Korea to block refugee.

China afraid this is the next Berlin Wall collapse in the East. It may prepare to take over North Korea if stuff went out of control.

Fresh threat via KCNA:

"We will settle thoroughly with the U.S. for the extreme crisis & its consequences that arise on Korean Peninsula."

Leaving on tuesday!!! But i feel bad about my families and friends.

"We will deal and calculate with America accurately on all extreme incidents and consequences on the Korean peninsula," it added, without elaborating.

What does that mean ??

It's really not much of an out b/c the North unilaterally declared a number of years ago all the waters north of the Maritime Demarcation Line, which includes all the waters surrounding the 5 Yellow Sea Islands. The South (as well as just about the whole international community) recognizes the Northern Limit Line (NLL) as the true maritime border separating North and South Korea. In other words, any SK shells fired off of Yeonpyeong Island are going to "cross the line" into waters NK recognizes (illegally) as their waters.

yeah my fellow neighbouring country

see..we all realized it but all this freakin morons are all day dreaming

You must be blinded. China has already shipped their multi heads missiles into NK. Russia has pour their troops just next to Rus-NK border...Just wait until the shit hits the fan. .


If Korean war blow up. China will invade Taiwan at the same time. Just wait and see

really

deal and calculate with America accurately



Janey I am not sure the line is a physical line but just the matter of going on with the drill. Crossing the line could be just shooting any live fire in a area that NK is claiming.

?

Maybe the North will back down...
They stand to lose so much...
But the South has got to go through with these drills, to show they will not be bullied.

says who, any official statement from russia or nk ?

and how can you easily believe this crap

hello!!!

sk will continue with the drill and nk will do nothing

its not about afraid or something, its about principles

How i hope the south korea warmongers see this video:
