N. Korea warns of nuclear war if attacked

SEOUL, South Korea - North Korea will respond to a pre-emptive U.S. military attack with an "annihilating strike and a nuclear war," the state-run media said Monday, heightening its antagonistic rhetoric.

The Korean Central News Agency, citing an unidentified Rodong Sinmun newspaper "analyst," accused the United States of increasing military pressure on the isolated communist state.

The North Korean threat of retaliation, which is often voiced by its state-controlled media, comes amid U.S. official reports that Pyongyang has shown signs of preparing for a test of a long-range missile.

"The army and people of the DPRK are now in full preparedness to answer a pre-emptive attack with a relentless annihilating strike and a nuclear war with a mighty nuclear deterrent," the report said. DPRK stands for the North's official name, the Democratic People's Republic of Korea.

The report accused Washington of escalating military pressure on the country with war exercises, a massive arms buildup and aerial espionage by basing new spy planes in South Korea.

North Korea routinely accuses the U.S. of aerial espionage, issuing a tally of such flights at the end of every month. The U.S. military doesn't comment, although it acknowledges monitoring North Korean military activity.

I'm sure we will be hit by someone like North Korea. This will be unprovoked.

It has already happened with Japan and Al Qaeda... It will happen again.

The amazing things about the war with Japan - we change centuries of thinking. We totally flipped a culture. Maybe the same can happen with Al Qaeda or North Korea.

"They can hit San Fagsicko if they want."

Nah! Even North Korea wouldn't hit an ally.

The filename of that gif is something like "therunningman..."

Honest to God, Miss mewzilla, sometimes I read this stuff ( and all the other lunacy going on in the world ) and think I've awakened into an alternate universe run by a mad god.

NK - Yes, but we will have to decimate the country, eliminating the entire leadership.

Al-Queda - No, this kind of change isn't possible, more to the point islam cannot be fundamentally changed. islam must be destroyed.

Doesn't North Korea's rants just remind you of that old joke about the flea climbing up the elephants leg with rape on it's mind.

That would be this universe while Satan thinks he's in charge.

Thanks for that link. I was wondering about NORAD, but have not had time to look for it.

Just an average citizen here hoping we do not have unexpected fireworks July 4th, be it in the sky, on the ground, domestic or abroad.

We can ignore such warnings. North Korea's leader knows that if even one N. Korean missile is fired in a eastern direction it will bring retaliation that would wipe North Korea completely off the face of the Earth.

Unfortunately, the wimps in our State Department can make no distinction between Communist N. Korea and Communist China.

Thanks in part to the former impeached and disbarred president Bill Clinton's exchange with Red China of super computer technology for campaign donations, Red China can make their threats good.

The People's Democratic Paranoid State of N Kor must be up to something bad if they expect to be attacked out of the blue.

Must be Mao-Masochists! A one way nuclear War!

I'm sure the guys with the airborne laser, the naval missle lanchers, and the SDI rockets are all doing a rock-paper-siscors to see who get's to take the missle out!

One Trident missile outguns their whole arsenal.

Yep. Have a couple of Boomers pop up and say howdy. I'd reckon that might just change the little gargoyles tune.......
