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.

>>>Recall the Japanese pleasure boat that was sunk by a U.S. submarine that surfaced just under the boat. Timing is everything.

Actually it was a boat full of Japanese high schoolers from Ehime learning a trade in fishing.

I don't believe calling someone you don't know or understand names is appropriate for the debate here.

Me either. That's why I took offense when in effect you called me a coward.

But I hope you weren't as offended as I was. I tried to keep it light and at least somewhat humorous (to me, 'dippy' only means 'silly' in a brotherly way).

So I take it all back. I am sorry. I know you're my brother or sister in arms against the dark side and I don't want to fight you. Cheers!

Well, hey. A fishing cruise would be a pleasure trip for me.

That's how I see it too. I don't think NK wants war, at least at this time. I think though they may overplay whatever they're up to.

Aircraft carrier USS John F. Kerry changes
course to intercept North Korean vessel.

Amazing, yet not surprising that this story has dropped off the radar...

Yeah. A pattern has developed with Fox News, and it doesn't seem particularly positive. The really important stuff gets reported once never to see the light of day again. Now that's really, FAIR AND BALANCED...

Well to me its not so much the news-worthyness of the story, whether it is reported on by all the networks or any particular one...

I think what is most important is what is NOT said or talked about that is important...We know what it really means, its just that I think most news outlets don't want to scare the Oprah-Jerry Springer-Montel-Good Morning America crowd...

I'd almost think that if you did ask someone in authority about this...

You'd get this 1000 yards stare...Huh???

or

If they did check into it...You'd get the "Nothing to see here, move along folks" line...

I've received both...
