A senior US official on Monday doubted that North Korea was involved in the recent sinking of a South Korean warship, in which dozens of crewmen are missing.

Deputy Secretary of State James Steinberg said that while South Korea was leading the investigation into Friday night's maritime explosion, he had heard nothing to implicate any other country.

"Obviously the full investigation needs to go forward. But to my knowledge, there's no reason to believe or to be concerned that that may have been the cause," Steinberg told reporters.

Yeah, the ObaMao Administration has no doubt concluded that it was a Christian “militia” group that sank the SoK ship.

They doubt it, because if they told the truth, it would be an act of war by the Norks.

No doubt the South Koreans staged it, just to embarrass Obastard.

2 years ago everyone loudly wondered who would answer that ominous 2:00 am phone call —who then realized that the powerful hand that prevailed would respond simply by PULLING THE PHONE CORD OUT OF THE WALL..?

Now THAT is change..! But hope?

I leave that to you...

I agree. Even it is really possible that north has nothing to do with it, it really looks like that everyone is trying desperate to rule out any possible engagement of the north.
Lets face it a war between north and south Korea is not in favour of current global politics. So north Korea is deffinitely innocent /s

surprised they aren’t trying to pin the blame on the tea party or birthers or global warming or something equally stupid.
