NKorea warns of "brink of war" - Yahoo! News
Quote:
"The situation on the Korean peninsula is inching closer to the brink of war," the dispatch from the Korean Central News Agency said.
IMO the North is just bluffing a bit. Not like their father who was a real revolutionary, the sons and the grandsons grew up in their jaded palace like semi-brats. Their father, what was his name?, was a battle-hardened soldier, who fough the Japanese, led the North Koreans in the Korean war. He was a scary figure who did scary things. He bombed an airliner, he bombed the whole entourage of visiting S. Korean president in Burma(?) in the 80's killing most of the president's cabinet men, kidnapped Japanese citizens from their homes - most never to be seen again, etc. We were concerned for our brother who was, as a US army soldier, guarded the DMZ during those times, in the 70's-80's. We were glad he came back safe, amidst reports of ocassional skirmishes between the two sides, and... ...with a korean bride.
But of course, you can never be sure as there are still some ol' lieutenants of their father who might be manipulating the whole thing.
