North Korea accuses U.S. soldiers of provoking border troops
The Associated Press ^ | 29 April 2016 | Hyung-jin Kim

A North Korean military statement Friday warned U.S. soldiers to stop what it called "hooliganism" at the inter-Korean border village of Panmunjom or they'll meet a "dog's death any time and any place."

It said U.S. troops pointed their fingers at North Korean soldiers and made strange noises and unspecified "disgusting" facial expressions. It also said that American troops encouraged South Korean soldiers to aim their guns at the North.

A statement from Christopher Bush, a spokesman for the U.N. command, said they looked into the allegations and determined they were unsubstantiated.

North Korea occasionally accuses South Korean and U.S. troops of trying to provoke its border troops and vice versa. After North Korea's first nuclear bomb test in 2006, the U.S. accused North Korean troops of spitting across the border's demarcation line, making throat-slashing hand gestures and flashing their middle fingers.

Hard to believe Red China still believes the insane elite of North Korea is a buffer distraction for the west. Considering China's more aggressive interests/actions in the south China Sea, what would they do should we take out Kim Jong-un and his entire military command and control leadership?

After all . . . Red China owns a lot of American real estate and profit making American-based enterprises.

Which would they really choose? The money sucking North Koreans or . . . some other path?

I don't know.

So they’re going to eat the American soldiers?

In Basic Training, my Drill Sergeant told us about his time as on post of the DMZ. Both sides were playing head games with each other all the time.

Grilling steaks and all the sides close enough to the DMZ for the norks to smell would be provocative.

The North could overrun the South in days and the communist in the WH will do nothing to stop it, except blame Bush and Trump.

Tick Tock.

They don't have nearly the logistics to even take Seoul, although they'd wreck it pretty good with artillery.

I work with some South Koreans. I don't think this is possible.

US Army psy-ops no doubt. Can't imagine what the Norks are upset about.

I think it must be a mistranslation. What they meant to say was "can we please eat your dogs?"

I went to Panmunjom in 2008, so I can say I have been inside North Korea when I went to the north side of the conference room table, while the NK soldiers stared in the windows at me. Little runts all of them. Our MP guide was a huge dude and all of the ROK soldiers were really big for Koreans, just to mess with the NK’s. They did indeed tell us not to point at the North Koreans. I did have to sign a release that said I could be lost to an act of war. One of the most bizarre places I’ve ever been. Also went into the invasion tunnels, which were spooky. If you ever get to Seoul, definitely sign up for the tour. Do the one offered via the USO, it’s the best.
