North Korea's military vowed a new and unusually specific threat to its neighbors, saying it would reduce South Korea "to ashes" in less than four minutes.
The statement, released Monday when programming was interrupted on North Korea's state TV by a special report, comes amid rising tensions on the Korean peninsula.
Earlier this month, North Korea was unsuccessful in a long-range missile launch, prompting worries that North Korea may conduct another nuclear test. South Korean officials say new satellite images show that North Korea has been digging a tunnel in what appears to be prepara
The North Korean military threatened to "reduce all the rat-like groups and the bases for provocations to ashes in three or four minutes, (or) in much shorter time, by unprecedented peculiar means and methods of our own style."

I'm sorry, but after 50 years of threats,it's hard to take this seriously. I approach these threats with a different.....approach :
Propaganda: The threats are to show the people in North Korea how powerful they are,and to show North Korean supporters in the South that the fight for liberty and anti-imperialism is still going.
The last "missile" launch was a failure,and shows how corrupt and weak and inefficient the North Korean military and institutions are. A country that has been developing the military more than even food for the citizens for the past 50 years, tries to launch a single rocket and fails miserably? The only one who should be afraid are the people living near the borders.

I have to tell you that the North Korean government is flat-out bat-sh#t crazy. I try to "read between the lines" when it comes to the US list of enemies, but not with these guys. They are whacked like no other!
One paragraph from the story that genuinely has me worried:
The North Korean military threatened to "reduce all the rat-like groups and the bases for provocations to ashes in three or four minutes, (or) in much shorter time, by unprecedented peculiar means and methods of our own style."
North Korea issues unusually specific threat
"...by unprecedented peculiar means and methods of our own style."?
What the hell does that supposed to mean? More sabre-rattling, or is there a new threat they've devised?
Don't put anything past these nut jobs. This story is definitely worth watching.
