SEOUL, South Korea — North Korea shot dozens of rounds of artillery onto a populated South Korean island near their disputed western border Tuesday, military officials said, setting buildings on fire and prompting South Korea to return fire and scramble fighter jets.

I mean seriously..... wtf?

I know they're still technically still at war and all, but c'mon, shelling a presumably innocent village for no reason?

So the north Koreans show a U.S Scientist their latest uranium enrichment plant ,then a few days later they shell a south Korean village!,some how I don't think its a coincidence - I'm waiting to see what the Norths going to demand now.

Oh no doubt something totally unreasonable, bordering on totally bat<censored> crazy. But with the US overextended militarily, and the EU frankly being almost spineless when it comes to war (like most of the western world), NK knows it will get away with it.

It's not the first time and no doubt it won't be the last. Let's hope they can keep a lid on it and not allow it to escalate into something nobody wants to contemplate.
