Dang, it sounds like its getting heated again. S.Koreas military is evacuating civilians into shelters at 11:18am. Its now noon 11/28/10 Korea time zone. S. Korea evacuates islanders on signs of N. Korean shelling. And the emergency evacuation order has been lifted, lol. Poor islanders, will be getting no sleep for a few days.

Military exercises are nothing more than a provocation to try to intimidate another country. What's really sad is while the governments of this world play their games like children on a playground, they have no concern for the people who will end up paying the ultimate price for their selfish and power hungry need for control. The people of this world are like pawns in a chess game. When they declare war, the families of this world will send their children to be slaughtered. They'll brain washed us with sound bites of the necessity to bomb innocent people in the name of "national security." How many innocent men, women and children have to die for these elite and controlling dictators. The very few in this world are controlling a world population who just want to get along with each other and live in peace. What a world this could be if people around the world could organize and just say enough is enough.

False alarm, but we can learn something from this situation. Their tensions are definitely very high.

You're right, civilized conduct is not for all, but neither is emulating violence.

That's good to hear. I think the last thing we need to do at this point is play into his antagonistic game. Gut feeling say's this is more of a lesson in chest pounding that he wants JR to maintain after he's gone. A war would devastate NK and Kim knows it. I don't think he would want to hand over a crippled(anymore than it is) military and country to his son, but he is a wild card and NK has little to lose, so....who know's.
