N.Korea vows nuclear strike against US
2010-03-27
North Korea has accused the US and South Korea of seeking a regime change in the country, threatening to launch nuclear strikes to counter any provocations by the two.

"Those who seek to bring down the system in the DPRK (North Korea)... will fall victim to the unprecedented nuclear strikes of the invincible army," a North Korean General Staff spokesman told the official Korean Central News Agency on Friday.
When did the North Korean engineers finally achieve a workable nuclear bomb? The last I heard there was a distict pffffft deep in that mountain when a BOOM!! had been predicted.
The spokesman cited a South Korean newspaper report as evidence of desperate moves of the US imperialists on the Korean Peninsula.

On March 19th, a South Korean newspaper claimed that the US Pacific Command will meet with South Korean and Chinese think-tanks next month.

Based on the report, they are slated to hold talks on how to control the North's weapons of mass destruction in the event that the government in Pyongyang collapses.

Earlier this month, North Korea criticized the South for planning joint military war games with the United States. The North Korean military said the drill was a rehearsal for an invasion of the North.

Pyongyang also stated that it will respond to any aggression with nuclear weapons if necessary. North has vowed to enlarge its nuclear arsenal to counter what it describes as US "military threats and provocations."

Tensions on the Korean peninsula have been high since the North's missile test in April 2009.

Following the move, the UN Security Council toughened sanctions against Pyongyang resulting in the North walking out of the six-party talks aimed at dismantling its nuclear program.

#10  Over the eight or so years immediately after the attacks the New Yorkers voted to keep in place energy and industrial policies that provide the nation-state sponsors of Al Qaeda with some 200 to 300 billion dollars worth of straight profit, year after year.

After all that, I feel like asking, why is it we're all expected to come together but we're not allowed to come up with a plan to break even?

#9  Indeed. Or even of some NYers. Firefighters from our neighborhood died there, having rushed the 80 miles down to the burning buildings to try to save lives. And smug little 'clever' people made all sorts of cute verbal one-offs to trivialize those deaths and the attack itself.

And then there was the hit on the Pentagon, in the wing where friends and colleagues of ours worked. They too went into the collapsing burning areas at great risk to themselves to save people. And there were plenty of smug 'clever' comments about that attack as well.

Some people need to grow up. Assessments of oneself as clever - nay, daringly nihilistic and counter-rational - don't suffice to make cutesy comments palatable or acceptable when what's at stake are the deaths of brave and innocent people. Even the high regard of one's mother or spouse is unconvincing in this case.

#8  Used to be an air strike on a US territory, much less a state, would bring us together.

Research the comments made by San Franciscans after 9/11, Ship.

#7  Can't say a new attack would bring us any closer now. If it was San Francisco or Seatle I don't know if I would donate anything for relief. I see cities like those, I know there is a mix of conservative and commie in them, but the commie side always has the bigger mouth. I would let the commies dig themselves out - any survivors would likely change their multi-cultural tune (unless of course they could blame Cheney)

Times change I guess.

That said, all the money building the interior defenses of Denver will have been worth it. Lizard peeps in the red-rooms not-withstanding.

#5  At the very least let's get the monuments, the museums and the people out of there.

#4  Yes, lotp. And I like the museums too.

#2  By the way, if you want to hit America, hit Washington DC. We do not like them either. FYI

#1  You cannot kill US all. We can kill you ALL.

Tell the military we will nuke them all unless they become respectable neighbors to the south and Japan and China.
