No idea! We'll have to wait and see what happens. Maybe they are getting into position for something, defensive and or offensive.

DEAR LEADER ,

PLEASE STOP THIS MADNESS.

THANK YOU

what the hell does it take to start a world war nowadays? cmonnnn, we've invaded two countries in a few years, sanctioned a few more. north korea keeps slapping south korea around. missiles off our own damn coast, what make any of you think this will spark a major event?

south korea is just going to run in her little corner and cry and when she's done, nothing changes.

This is not about South Korea, this is about US, hence South Korea is a proxy state of USA.

I believe China is testing US's strength, DUUUH, everyone knows US is in decline.

This is also called for because US doesn't want a peace treaty with N-Korea, to justify the sanctions. US and N-Korea is officially at war.

DEAR SLAVE,

QUIT COMPLAINING AND GET BACK TO WORK.

defense ministry deputy spokesman says he's too busy to comment to int'l media about the crisis. #Korea

Now that's funny.

I don't know... send the new guy to do press briefings! It's not hard...


Now let's think for a moment... was the torpedo that sank the SKorean warship REALLY a North Korean torpedo? Many analysts think that it wasn't.

Also, NKorea fired 200+ shells at the island... and what... 50 landed on the island? The rest in the water... Now if you know about NKorean military technology, you know they have crappy artillery pieces... what if it was really an error and they just wanted to make a point by doing like they always do and just shoot artillery in water?

This was all a mistake....

multiple people on twitter are getting their news from the same single source. north korea had a terrible, terrible strategy for today if this is true.

Leadership transition periods in dictatorships are very unstable. These kinds of "mistakes" are going to be made. It's usually just the new leader showing his "strength" and "resolve" to his followers.

Hopefully we've seen the last of this muscle flexing for now.

Posting again for those not reading past posts, so that they may stay up to date. North Korea says they are invincible and can take over south korea along with the us soldiers stationed there.

North Korea Fires Rockets at South Korean Island

North Korea fired artillery at South Korea's Yeonpyeong island in the Yellow Sea off the countries' west coast Tuesday afternoon, setting houses on fire. South Korea returned fire, according to residents on the island speaking on South Korea's YTN television network.

HOUSES WERE HIT AND ARE ON FIRE

Is this the start of WW3 or what?

What's with all this WW3 stuff? Nothing will come out of that. Stop scaring yourself.

Yeah but for them it's normal doing this sorts of thing.

Anyway...

(URGENT) S. Korea warns stern retaliation against N. Korea in case of additional provocation (more to follow)

And if the report that NKorea is massing their navy is true... look out.

And they are away! Yay!

Kidding.

What I really want to know right now.... WHAT ARE CHINESE TROOPS DOING?

No movements? Amassing near North Korea's border... or more troops there than usual?

More troops near Taiwan than usual?

What's up?

Battle is apparently still going on... anyone from SKorea can confirm?

WW3 DOOM within 48 hours?
