Is this the biggest cross border event since the Armistice in 1953?

I just think because it involves civilians and the footage is so compelling, s. Korea will have no choice but to respond.

There was some doubt initially about what actually sunk that ship. No doubt when you shell a civilian island in broad daylight.

Now N. Korea is pulling out artillery tubes near Baekryong Island in addition to the one near Yonpyong Island. They reportedly show signs of preparation for shelling. It is not clear at this point if it is merely a bluff or not. However, more shelling could come and Baekryong Island may be also under fire.

"북, 백령도 인근 해안포 기지도 이상징후"
(서울=연합뉴스) 김귀근 기자 = 북한군이 연평도에 이어 백령도 인근의 해안포 기지에서도 발사 태세를 보여 군 당국이 면밀히 주시하고 있는 것으로 알려졌다.
정부의 한 소식통은 23일 "연평도 일원에서 북한의 해안포 사격이 소강 상태인 가운데 백령도 인근의 해안포 기지에서도 포 진지를 개방하는 등 이상징후가 포착되어 북한 동향을 예의주시하면서 대비태세를 강화있다"고 밝혔다.

The 200 in that screen grab is in reference to the number of shells fired by North Korea.

This was the biggest incident until now;
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axe_murder_incident
After reading this version I should add that those who were there when the tree was finally cut down told me that the sky was full of planes and the Norks knew it would be suicide to try and stop this attempt.

Eh - nothing will come from this anymore than any other incident. This is the same song and dance that has been going on for years. They just feel a little braver today because they know America isn’t going to stop them. A STRONG letter of disapproval will be written. Perhaps a letter from the U.N. - a phone call from China and Russia. Then North Korea will be given more money and incentives to back off a bit. Wash - repeat.
To: Jet Jaguar
Update:
Some 60~70 houses are on fire. Houses are packed one next to another, making it easy for fire to spread. Full damage assessment is not possible at this point. Due to heavy smoke and sporadic NK shelling still in progress.

Just once, I wish I could see the look on Kimmys face if we hit back hard. This regime won't hit that regime. If anything, our Dear Leader would shake the hand of their Dear Leader and they'd both blame Israel for the whole mess.
