As Ducimus said earlier, it is not as though the DPRK has the intention of engaging in any conflict. Vague threat is the only card Kim Jong Il has to play.

It wasn't vague threat when someone sank the Cheonan :D.

Never be sure of North Korea :DL

Even the novice in world affairs knows that there is a tremendous difference between a clandestine sinking and the conduct of a full-scale military campaign. North Korea cannot adequately conduct such a war; a fact it's leaders are painfully aware of, if not willing to publically concede.

Yea they may not be able to wage a war but they are fully capable of provoking one :D

I'm just waiting if they would do that when the joint US-South Korea naval exercise is still ongoing or later.

The US/ROK will not strike first, it would work against their favour. Propaganda bonuses are awarded to the defendants after all in this game. :yep:

Care to explain?

Which would result in the end of the regime. Kim Jong Il likes being in power.

In before News Vendor :O:

Still, business as usual again on the peninsula. Figured Kim would retaliate somehow to the massive naval exercises, and here it is. They'll get released in a few weeks no doubt.

Raptor1 08-08-10 10:38 AM

Bah, I expected something more impressive. At least a show of force from the mighty Korean People's Nav...err...well, maybe not....
