N. Korea threatens ultra-harsh action on U.S. soil over hacking allegation

2014/12/21 21:26

SEOUL, Dec. 21 (Yonhap) -- North Korea threatened to carry out ultra-harsh military action on U.S. soil Sunday, one day after U.S. President Barack Obama vowed a proportional response against the North's alleged hacking attack into Sony Pictures.

In a follow-up to the FBI's recent hacking accusation against Pyongyang, Obama vowed Friday (U.S time) to "respond proportionally," hinting at retaliatory action over the communist country's alleged hacking attack on the distributor of a controversial movie about North Korea, "The Interview."

North Korea had been suspected of involvement in last month's cyberattack on Sony after the country's repeated warnings against the firm's plan to release the movie, dealing with an assassination plot targeting North Korean leader Kim Jong-un.

“Ultra harsh”? I think Obama can defend that with just his phone alone.

what has the U.S. done in response to decades of NK counterfeiting our currency?

That is an excellent question. It is an act of war and the Norks have been doing it for decades and getting away with it.

They will get away with this, too. Uncle Sam has become Uncle Grovel and they know it.

They may try and shut down our electrical grid next just so we can freeze and starve in the dark just like them. They quite likely have the capability to do it right now.

Kim Jong Un certainly has a very odd way of trying to arrange foreign aid for his starving countrymen, doesn’t he? Biting the hand that may feed you really usually does not work so well; however, Mr. Obama’s altruistic progressivism may well open the fed’s treasury to Kim. Take that, America.

Judging from their rhetoric, they are confident that U.S. can’t do much, and they are free to launch vile diatribe at U.S..

You mean they don't fear the strongly worded letter?
