North Korea reveals warship sinking

Jimbuna · 11-05-13, 05:13 AM

Most strange they should admit this rather than blame it on the south.

Quote:

North Korea has revealed that one of its warships sank last month, killing a number of sailors, in a rare admission of military failure.
State media reported a visit by leader Kim Jong-un to a naval cemetery for the crew of "submarine chaser No 233".
Photographs showed Mr Kim surrounded by more than a dozen gravestones inscribed with the date 13 October.
The report said the vessel had been performing combat duties but gave no more information about what happened.

More lives lost due to the DPRK's crappy technology.

Someone should have told him that a "Sub Chaser", is only supposed to chase on the surface.

LOL. I'm surprised at the announcement. They normally can do no wrong and it's always Sth Korea's fault.

If I know The Mighty Leader and his propaganda machine he'll have it surface on his birthday.

Cracks in the stone wall of the DPRK? Stranger things have happened.

I attribute this breakthrough to our (US) ambassador to NK, Dennis Rodman.

I love Kim and his homies/posse.

Most of the sailors lost were probably ordered to remain on the boat

I suppose fatboy needs another UN food package to feed his starving people?

Kimmy is a petulant child. Forever caught in its "terrible twos"..

And it is China and Russias fault, for covering, and veiling thier bullcrap for so long..

Look one thing you cannot blame America for, you "blame america" Euros must be in a tizzy.

Could blame America for driving for the Yalu, I guess.

Probably. Fanaticism is a dangerous thing when the wrong people have it.
