NKorea denies invasion plans; sez it's SKorea's idea
Edited for brevity.
In an unusual move, North Korean leader Kim Jong-il has denied any plan to invade the South and instead claims it is South Korea which is plotting to invade the North, a North Korean report said Saturday. "Great Leader Kim Jong-il said there is groundless speculation in South Korea about a southward invasion threat by North Korea and that the real threat exists in a northward invasion by South Korea," Radio Pyongyang reported.
"Great Leader"? I thought he had been demoted to "Big Cheese" in recent weeks?
How about "Fearless Leader"? Badanov, whaddya think? Natasha? Bueller?
Although North Korea often hinted at the possibility of a northern invasion and rebuffed suggestions of a southern invasion, such remarks have rarely come directly from Kim's mouth. The state-run broadcaster aired Kim's remarks in a commentary, denouncing the South's plan to increase its self-reliant defense capabilities. But it did not provide any background, including when and where Kim made the comments.
