SEOUL (AFP) - North Korea threatened "all-out war" in response to exercises by South Korean and US troops due to start Monday and told Seoul to stop cross-border propaganda, upping the rhetoric against its arch rivals.
Pyongyang would respond to the upcoming drill, with "unprecedented all-out counteraction" that would turn the South's capital Seoul into a "sea of flames", the Korean Central News Agency said Sunday.
"The army and people of the DPRK will return bolstered nuclear deterrent of our own style for the continued nuclear threat... and our own missile striking action for their vicious attempt to eliminate our missiles," KCNA said.

promises, promises.
Bring it. Please.
Well, if they are going to do it they had better do it now while the United States has Obama in power.
They know that when it comes to anything resembling military power, the U.S. has been neutered by “the One” and our timid and weak politicians.
I'm not even confident that he has time to sober up between parties these days.
“It’s a dangerous world, and a spaghetti noodle is in charge.”
An insult to spaghetti noodles. They have more definition.
“Pay attention to meeeeeeeee” gambit, take five hundred thirty four.
“It would be sad, but I can foresee a situation in the near future where the United States will pull all its troops back inside our borders just to defend them from the outside world.....especially an unstable Mexico that most people are ignoring.”
There was a movie a few years ago, Babylon A.D., that had a scenario like that as the backdrop.
So what's new?
This event may be at its most opportune moment. many of the communists/socialists/jihadists may believe America is spread too thin and too demoralized to understand this reaction.
I believe it is time for the US to leave the world stage and let the rest of the world implode.
We have given our blood and treasure for no loyalty from the reciepients and no return for our investment.
America is protected by two oceans and has a vast ability and resources to survive this fiasco.
No span of ocean protects us from nuclear....let alone the enemy already within...Further our own military leadership has stated already that the US military cannot do another Iraq or Aphganistan so it's a fact not a belief. Can America survive on it's own...certainly...but would the people loose the monitary comforts to do so.....that's a NOT. Wisc. protests are just the beginning.
My first motorcycle was a 1967 Suzuki 250. I remember trying to read the manual.
The North Korean “statement” kind of reads like the motorcycle manual.
At least the manual was believable.
We have to guard against the radicals which are uncontrollable. Hence, we need to ferment chaos in the middle east.
As long as the Shia and Sunni are at each others throat and Israel is battling for its survival, we shall have time to formulate our forces and retaliatory posture.
Russia and Europe will be forced to look at a survival alliance against the jihadists of the middle east who are trying to expand their Caliphate fever.
With global chaos, China will be incapacitated by its own internal upheaval.
Leaving Iraq and Afganhistan leave us time to reconstitute our military forces into “hammer strike” forces capable of projecting where we need the temporarily.
If we do not begin to look at the world like this we will be overwhelmed and destroyed.
agreed, we know where speghetti noodles come from...
Well, why not. Obama will just go on another vacation while Seoul burns.
N.Korea Holds Public Execution Over S.Korean Propaganda
North Korean defectors said anyone who picks up an anti-communist leaflet must notify the authorities on pain of severe punishment. They said North Koreans are taught from a young age that eating South Korean-made cookies causes gut rot while picking up pens or lighters made in the South will make the hands decay.
Ooops, the whiner dropped his pacifier and in all the Libya turmoil was being neglected.
It is March, mid winter is past, the season of starvation and of death. How bad is it in Kim lad?
They will not bring snacks. They will be assimilated by snacks. Feeding starving soldiers from the North as they cross the border is the first phase of ending Ill's tyrannical rule. Why do you suppose they have not invaded?
Just think, if we hadn’t lost WWII to the Soviet Union NONE of this would be happening!
