The measures South Korea has taken draw a line, once and for all, under the more optimistic era of growing trade and engagement between the two Koreas.

In his live television address, President Lee Myung-bak warned of a danger of complacency.

In addition, South Korea says it will resume "psychological operations" against the North, a reference to the radio and loudspeaker broadcasts that were suspended in 2004, and meet any further attack with an immediate military response.

It may also try to use the referral to the UN Security Council to push for a toughening of sanctions, a move that would infuriate the North.
So I wonder if NK's gonna follow through with its all-out war threat. Probably not.

What, and get wiped off the face of the map? I don't think so...

They're not so ronery anymore.

I hope we finally get a chance to take them out. Lil Kim has got to be about the dumbest ruler of all time. (err... well, maybe GW and him are a tie but still...)

Sober enough to know what I'm doing, drunk enough to really enjoy doing it

I wouldn't say that - he's been in power for how long now? Takes quite an effort.

Well its a political ideology cooked up by Sung, but followed like a religion yes, with Sung and also Kim being their god-like figures. Similar to Imperial Japan in a way.

Kim is a fucking genius, so was his father, and his son will probably be too. He has a whole country working for him getting him rich. This is just realpolitik.

Update: North Korea Threatens `All-Out Military Strike' on South's Loudspeakers

Seems the North is a little upset with South Korea crying to the mommy U.N. with big brother U.S. and sister Japan.
