Any more details. Is it conclusive or just likely?

Then you should have told me I missed your sarcasm instead of arguing. Sorry, I missed your sarcasm.

There is no need to apologize to that poster as he always claims:
"I guess you missed that I was being facetious ...." when he is getting pwnd.

Nice job on the media coverage. Hat tip.

Do you think Kim will be saddened that his 'unexpected attack' got swept under the carpet? Just imagine, he went to bed last night thinkin "I've done it, the submarine blew a hole in that ship, and they never saw it coming, as soon as they fire back my massive navy will clean out the waters"

Then he wakes up.."Accident?! Accident?! that was no freaking accident?!" He will be pissed at first for no glorious battle, then encouraged by the thought of being able to continue to attack S Korean ships with impunity, and then laugh at the thought that the US allies were shooting at birds!


I guess only N Korea is ready for war, apparently the US isn't interested, and would rather have S Korea look like fools who have deadly accidents on their ships and shoot at birds when being attacked from underwater.

North Korea has South Korea by the balls, if the South decides to do any kind of military action get ready for the nuclear fireworks!

If you corner a dog and keep poking at him, he will eventually sink his fangs into your ankle.

And justly so...

I am looking for a link to back it up, but they were pretty plain in the report that South Korea was not blaming North Korea and that it was an explosion on board having to do with their ammo.

I'll keep looking, but this is a good sign, still a tragic incident, but an accident is much better than the initial speculation.

Damn Laser wearing sharks - They'll get you every time.

If you eliminate all of the possibilities and all you are left with no matter how improbable is laser wearing sharks - well there you go.

In all seriousness - my condolences to the families and friends of the fallen sailors of this "incident"

Perhaps one explanation to the freak accident scenario this is that both sides were monitoring the same flock of birds showing up in their radar screens... and both quickly decided to open fire. At first, things were going smoothly for them... at least up until the point when the birds flew right in between the two ships... and... and...

No news in the German zdf.tv right now about the incident.

I am inclined to think that it was an accident of some kind and they tried
to make it look like an attack for some confused reasons.

Some info about North Korea's naval capabilities:

www.globalsecurity.org...

And I reckon there would be a few spy satellites watching this location very closely right now:

I don't know him very well, he just moved in recently, but he is pretty young, so I would say he is enlisted. I was asleep when I was woken up by all the commotion, so I wasn't drunk or drinking, but maybe he and his girlfriend were? How does the Navy handle a domestic violence case? I don't know what was happening before the police and gov't showed up, just during and after. I would think if it were domestic violence they wouldn't allow him to drive his own vehicle and follow them. Also, my mom saw and heard everything that I did and she is as straight laced as it comes.

I don't understand then if it was an accident other then to avoid a war and what really happened... SK's navy is fairly advanced and they aren't using cold war era munitions (Like the taliban). Meaning they would be very stable, and shouldn't just go randomly off and blow out a ship's hull... I haven't heard of this before in any other modern military (Links please if it has)...

It's not Kim Jong ill we should be worried about, it's his son, some have said that he is just like his father and even more war hungry...

"For all those reasons, presumably, Kim Jong Un, thought to be 26 years old now, has apparently been designated, by his father and the upper echelons of Pyongyang's secretive Workers Party, as the one who will continue the dynastic regime in the North. He is indeed the Prince, destined to be the ruler of the country founded by his grandfather, Kim Il Sung."

Sure he's not getting ready to pull a Menendez on dear old Dad?

I believe it, but i also currently believe the North did sink that ship, and the South is taking the high road (I'm glad). Why start a war possibly causing Millions of deaths in hours when so far less then 100 died, no matter how sad it is that's the way they have taken things when it comes to these "Skirmishes".
Hopefully we can get a full story on this, and then the conspiracy's can begin!

Not entirely what I heard on the news alert on FNC but getting closer:

www.alertnet.org

SEOUL, March 27 (Reuters) - There was no sign of North Korean military in the area where a South Korean naval ship sank, Yonhap quoted a presidential official as saying on Saturday.
There had been earlier suggestions that the vessel may have been attacked on Friday night by North Korea near the disputed sea border dividing the two Koreas.
But the government later played down the reports and the Yonhap report quoted the official as saying that satellite pictures and other information showed no sign of any North Korean activity in the area.

^ Yes because you can see Submarines via satellite..

*sigh*

Countdown to new CT Theory...3...2...1.

It was Obama's fault or somehow an arranged deflection by either US Political Party.

Stand down Patriots back to US Govt ridicule, misplaced anger and overthrow. I kid.

The next years are not only 2012 but also a period of a great astrological energy (search 2010 cardinal cross or www.astrotransits.blogspot.com). Last time planets were in similar positions, it was during the thirties. Basically, the energy stirs everything up, be it scientific inventions, social unrest, revolutions impulses, war impulses, economic failures, spiritual impulses, etc... And it is just beggining, as the collective energy will mount up during the next few years. I wish for no war, for a global collective peace and a dramatic change in our world society, for the good. The increase in energy might be "fate" but what occurs depends ultimately on the "free will" of humans. Let's see what happens.

It also happened near a disputed border. This was definitely no accident, but then, South Korea's hands are tied, literally.
