Thunderous explosions were heard out at sea. Soon a South Korean naval ship was unloading the bleeding bodies of dead and injured sailors whose patrol ship had come under fire from a North Korean vessel.“There was blood everywhere, the sailors were in shock, and one of them had his leg blown off,” Mr Shin says. “It’s impossible to describe my hatred for those commie sons of bitches.”
Six South Korean sailors died, although they claim to have killed a larger number of Northerners — who had used the pretext of monitoring the Chinese crab-fishing vessels to cross the Northern Limit Line.
The South Korean Government of the day played down the action out of a desire to avoid derailing its “sunshine policy” of engagement with the North. The current conservative President, Lee Myung Bak, takes a sterner view. * * *
South Korea better wake up. Fast. It's society has been infiltrated deeply by Chinese and NK spies. Peaceniks and NK sympathizers are everywhere. Every day they take to the streets to protest American policies. Kim Jong Il is a demented turdbrain with unlimited power. His army is very strong and has had over 50 years to build underground cities. North Korean believes that can easily triumph. With the UN today -- weaker than ever -- nobody will have the will the fight. Certainly not the Zero in the WH.
Since when did the UN EVER win a war or conflict?
It is as irrelevant now as it ever was.
If he needlessy sacrifices US troops in Japan (and they are in harms’ way now, and on his watch), so many of them killed or wounded, and no zero sum response to Pyongyang to settle the issue as quickly as possible, you can bet the Join Chiefs of Staff would/should have something to say about it. Maybe even more.
I think many have vested interests in propping up N. Korean regime for no other reason than their connection to N. Korean regime could be exposed when the regime falls.
These people can be easily turned around to work for Chinese if Chicom gets their hands on N. Korean dossier on these operatives first.
