F22s arrive in Korea
 WASHINGTON -- U.S. F-22 stealth fighter jets arrived in South Korea on Sunday for exercises as part of an effort to demonstrate advanced military capabilities, seeking to deter provocations from North Korea, according to reports.The Wall Street Journal reported Sunday that the arrival of the stealth jets came after previous examples of U.S. air power that included B-52 bombers and B-2 stealth bombers. The F-22 steal jets are normally stationed in Japan at Kadena air force base but flew to a South Korean base for continuing military exercises. The Wall Street Journal reported that White House and defense officials said they expected more threats from Pyongyang. The report cited a senior administration official who said that while the White House does take North Korean threats seriously the rhetoric does follow a pattern that we have seen for decades.
