Korea warships By HYUNG-JIN KIM, Associated Press Writer Hyung-jin Kim, Associated Press Writer 1 hr 15 mins ago SEOUL, South Korea – North Korea threatened military action Wednesday against U.S. and South Korean warships plying the waters near the Koreas' disputed maritime border, raising the specter of a naval clash just days "It is a laughable delusion for the United States to think that it can get us to kneel with sanctions," it said in an editorial. "We've been living under U.S. sanctions for decades, but have firmly safeguarded our ideology and system while moving our achievements forward. The U.S. sanctions policy toward North Korea is like striking a rock with a rotten egg."

Nothing new here. N. Korea remains defiant. Unless China steps in there will be war in the East.

Japan has already seen how we treat our allies. They know they stand alone unless they can form an alliance with China. If they do that, the US is in real trouble.

Bluster for money and stuff. The problem is, they’ll actually do some ugly stuff if we don’t give them what they want.

This will end in war eventually.

Kim has another letter from the UN in his future if he isn’t careful!

Quick, someone tell Obama to go talk some sense into this guy. Surely he will listen to The Messiah.

I worry that China will take military action.

It will embolden them and solicit applause from much of the world. Eventually, someone will have to remove that pot bellied dictator by force and permanently destroy their capabilities for nuclear technology. It is either going to be the US or China.

I don’t see Russia having anything to do with it.

I wonder how long a process it is to go from testing an underground nuke to having something missile ready.

If by achievements you mean starving your people to death, then mission accomplished, commies.

I’d normally say, “bring it!” but then I got afraid for what would happen with Obama as CIC. Visions of Carter at the helm came flooding back.

If he keeps it up the letter font could turn to RED some day!

This cannot go unanswered. Lock and load the TelePrompter and the 0ne can wax presidential after his fundraisers in the West...

He should definitely walk across the Pacific Ocean and meet with Little Kim face to face.

Gosh, I’m so glad Barry sang “Change You Cab Believe In” to win the American Idol Presidency. Now the world loves us!

No doubt, he’s planning on improving his deep bowing (kaw tawing) to the N Koreans and Chinese. He still needs to work on keeping his birth certificate under wraps though...

When the Iranians or N Koreans nuke DC, what will Barry sing then?
“I fall to pieces”?

Maybe if Barack sends him a muffin basket, KJI will think reconsider.

China is the one who blocked the UN from doing anything about his longrange missile last month.
