NK knows that Obama’s knee-jerk reaction will be to give them money and food to stop attacking the South.

From what I am hearing, the SK ship is sunk and a North Korean sub is suspected. Many of the sailors on SK ship are dead. Waiting for additional details to link.

S.Korean ship sinking with 100 on board, North attack suspected - YTN

SEOUL - A South Korean naval ship with more than 100 on board was sinking on Friday near North Korea and Seoul was looking into whether it was due to a torpedo attack by the North, South Korea’s YTN TV network reported.

North Korea in recent weeks has said it was bolstering its defences in response to joint South Korean-U.S. military drills that were held this month.

If long thought it would be small event like this that triggers the whole unraveling rather than something big like an Iranian nuke strike. Obama/Clinton view of the work it far too naive to understand the nuances of the world stage.

Amazingly Obama restarts the Korean War.

This time, though, the route to amnesty is going to be millions of illegal alien draftees.

(PSST ~ pass that one around ~ Obama is going to draft them and send them to Korea by next Winter)

North Korea threatens U.S., South Korea with ‘nuclear strikes’

March 26, 2010

North Korea’s military threatened South Korea and the United States on Friday with “unprecedented nuclear strikes” as it expressed anger over a report the two countries plan to prepare for possible instability in the totalitarian country, a scenario it dismissed as a “pipe dream.”

The ship was struck by a torpedo at 1345 GMT in the Yellow Sea and has sunk with significant loss of life.

Here we go.
