Ooo… North Korea is very, very angry about a planned South Korean anti-sub drill in the West Sea:
North Korea warned South Korean fishermen on Tuesday to stay away from disputed border waters and threatened a “strong physical retaliation” against a coming South Korean naval drills.
The drills — five days of antisubmarine exercises starting Thursday — were scheduled in response to the sinking in March of a South Korean warships near the disputed western sea border that killed 46 sailors. South Korea said a North Korean torpedo split the ship, the Cheonan, in two.
On Tuesday, North Korea’s western military command “made a decisive resolution to counter the reckless naval firing projected by the group of traitors with strong physical retaliation,” said a statement carried by the North’s official Korean Central News Agency.
Read: North Korea could conduct missile/artillery tests in the West Sea. Or they could do something stupid like fire on a South Korean ship. Or they could do something even more stupid and nuke themselves again. Or not.

Does the new comment system not apply to new posts? I created an ID, but it’s letting me post without it under my old ID.
Anyway they are just slowly pushing us to the point where they can do anything and we won’t care. I can see they’ve already pushed you into bitter complacency.
the new comment system was already abolished 조엘…
No conventional retaliation can ever be witnessed other than firing shitty chinese weapons into invisible targets. No oil, no air force, limited naval operations by North Korea. They don’t turn off their engines just to be stealthy, they want to save as much fuel as they have left as possible ! I lol’d.
You think North Korea is pissed? How about China? They’re really pissed at South Korea too, for getting too close to the Americans, and the way South Korean media has reported on China negatively regarding the Cheonan, and the Chinese sending back a South Korean POW of Korean War, who managed to escape North Korea.
This is from their Global Times.
