Note to Banksters

Stop interfering in this event.

There are things more important than your derivative contract.

We cannot afford to embolden N. Korean regime to save your sorry ass for another half a year. Don't whine on FT or WSJ.

You are no longer in a position to demand rational response. Since when have you been rational?

Stay put and watch your fortune destroyed.

“I wish I could see the look on Kimmy’s face if we hit back hard.”

You’re kidding, right??

With ObamaCarter in the White House, the South knows they are on their own if the balloon goes up.

And the North knows it, too.

The only wildcard in this is China, and after last week’s disasterous meetings with Obama, they may have finally let the Nork’s off the leash?

This amateur nutjob President of ours is going to stumble his way in to a War America doesn’t want any part of, because of his weakness.

No. They are expecting the repeat of last incident: Cheonan

They are counting on the prospect that we would back down eventually. This is classic NK terror-mongering.

No report about them hitting enemy targets yet. Won’t surprise me if they are just circling over the area to “send a message.”

Our WH pretender is and is looked upon as such
a weakling around the world, he’s literally been
inviting danger from and in all corners. The world
is on fire. The Gates of Hell have been opened.
God bless and protect us all. .

Idiots in Seoul insist that Inchon Airport would be enough and there is no need for additional back-up airport which can handle all international flight traffic. I always scoffed at them because it takes only a few dozen NK artilery shells to make the airport completely useless. Shells don't need to land on the airport, just in the vicinity. Then all flights will stay out.

So the town shelled was on the south side of the island ? Probably thought they were a little safe being on the backside of the island with respect to North Korea.

The USA Emperor has no clothes...

http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2010-11-21/u-s-envoy-bosworth-visits-asia-amid-signs-north-korea-chases-nuclear-goal.html

“The U.S. is now at the crossroads of engagement and pressure, and sanctions are clearly not working,” said Yang Moo Jin, a professor at the University of North Korean Studies in Seoul. The Obama approach to North Korea “has done nothing but bolster North Korea’s nuclear capabilities,” he said.

Don’t see how this is any bigger of a deal than the ship they sank. Nobody cared then - will they care now?
