#1 Bush was right about the "axis of weasels;" NK, Iran, and Iraq. Well, we did trim off one. Two on hold at least until 2012. In the meantime, we will have to settle for reading them their Miranda rights.

#2 I presume that the next step is to convene an international court, appoint a prosecutor, and draft a sternly worded letter. all of which will bring renewed fits of laughter from the responsible parties. maybe 0bama can get them to play along with his magic reset button. calling the 'leadership' of USA/SKOR weak and cowardly would be slanderous to weaklings and cowards the world over.

#3 Investigators have apparently discovered pieces of a propeller from a torpedo, which could provide valuable clues to exactly what caused the Navy corvette Cheonan to sink on March 26

Gee. Do left over WWII mines have propellers?

#4 It wouldn't have needed a prop if it ran on Juche.

#5 How about blowing one of their ships out of the water?

#6 Gee. Do left over WWII mines have propellers?

No, no they don't.

However, Given the area the Cheonan was sailing in, the chance of the vessel hitting a drifting mine existed, and that chance was higher than getting hit by a NorK torpedo.

So it was a torpedo. Go buy a lottery ticket.
