U.S. intelligence has detected the departure from a North Korean port of a North Korean ship suspected of carrying military equipment banned under a U.N. sanctions resolution against Pyongyang's Oct. 9 nuclear test, CBS News reported Thursday.

The United States is tracking the ship, CBS said, noting that it remains uncertain exactly what the ship is carrying and where it is headed.

If this ship is carrying 'contraband', the North Koreans will scuttle the ship before they let us seize it. And then, when it's scuttled, NK will claim we 'unlawfully' sank their ship.

Repeat as necessary.

I can tell you where it's headed. Straight for Davey Jones' Locker if it doesn't heave to at the warning shot.

LOL...thanks, I needed that.

Let's do it. Take that ship, unload it, and then trade it for the USS Pueblo.

I think a Destroyer moving at full speed could run it over, like a squirel under the wheel of a truck.

Do it in the dead of night. Then say oops, what was that?

Howdy Count...this will be interesting to see how we handle it. How do you think we will play it? Passive or Aggressive?

Not meaning to hijack this thread but I've got a question. Is that ship in either the Bahamas or Caymans? I ask because I either saw that boat or one that looks like it in either of those two ports.

"That was then...this is now...the Russians and Chinese will scream...count on it."

You afraid of screaming? Have we become so dainty and PC that the thought of somebody screaming will stop us from doing what needs to be done? If so, we might just as well fly white flags on our Naval vessels and run the white flag up the pole at the White House. It's all over.

Sinking this ship seems to me like the best option.

Torps are no accident...

And if this ship goes away...My heart would bleed purple kool-aid for that eventuality...

We may not sieze it.

Certainly we'll board it...or sink it if they refuse. If it's clean it'll be on it's way. If there's banned hardware we just MIGHT capture the crew and sink the ship. The crew can be turned over to the Chinese or South Koreans for repatriation.

I'm curious where she's going. Wonder how far NK wants to push this especially after hints that China may cut NK oil supplies something the Chinese fear may cause the collapse of NK.

Time for a Bush togive a national address?

Publicly Tell Kim the boat makes a u-turn in 15 minutes or its gone. That he will not risk millions of lives hoping it is not armd with a nuke. Blow it up one minute later.
