South Korean maneuvers draw threat from North
A South Korean navy ship participates in drills in the Yellow Sea this week.
Just two weeks after joint drills with the U.S. Navy, South Korea's military is carrying out five days of military exercises in the Yellow Sea.
The South Korean navy, army, air force and marines are practicing techniques for detecting and evading North Korean submarines and guided missiles, South Korea's Yonhap news agency reported Saturday. The exercise involves 20 ships and 4,500 troops, according to Yonhap.
The sinking of a South Korean warship in late March, in which 46 sailors died, was attributed to a North Korean submarine attack. The North calls the accusation "a fabrication."
North Korea said Friday it would "react with strong physical retaliation to the anti-submarine drill to be staged by the group of traitors in the West Sea," according to the official Korean Central News Agency.
"Our warnings are not empty rhetoric," said Rodong Sinmun, the newspaper of the North's ruling Workers' Party, according to Yonhap.
When will the North Korean government say "Enough" and get rid of mentally ill dictator? North Korea has suffered way too much because of this evil and selfish man. The rest of the world would recognize and support any responsible coup that would other throw this despot.
Well, when you are indoctrinated *from birth*, and literally everything on the 2 tv channels you get is all propaganda about the "Dear Leader" – and you are not allowed access to the outside world, or even to have cellphones etc., you don't overthrow anything.
People with that level of brainwashing do not question, they follow. Until they start seeing how the rest of the real world lives.
As soon as the rest of the World does!!! Even the United States can't get things right yet...
North Korea is the model of a nation that rules through mental illness. Look at N. Korea, it looks like the interior landscape of Kim Jung Il's mind. Detachment, delusion, and paranoia are the clear signs of his defective mind...so why is he still in a leadership role? Those who make up the N. Korean leadership must feel an embarrassing humiliation every time they put their heads to rest every evening.
Like the United States did when Bush Jr was in office???
Larry, why don't you crawl back under the rock you came out from. You are a delusional tree hugging liberal who has the typical mindset that is destroying this country as I type.
Actually KB, you and Larry are like "birds of a feather." Nothing but generalizations. "My side is better than your side." Just think a little before you put pen to paper.
The threats of retaliation are probably meant more for the ears of North Koreans than the United States and South Korea. The regime is desperate.
YOU GOTTA LOVE THIS !!!
In addition to communicating with the local Air Traffic Control facility, all
aircraft in the Persian Gulf AOR are required to give the Iranian Air Defense
Radar (military) a ten minute 'heads up' if they will be transiting Iranian
airspace.
This is a common procedure for commercial aircraft and involves giving them your
call sign, transponder code, type aircraft, and points of origin and
destination.
This is a conversation which was overheard on the VHF Guard (emergency)
frequency 121.5 MHzwhile flying from Europe to Dubai . It's too good not to pass
along.
The conversation went like this.....
Iranian Air Defense Radar:'Unknown aircraft you are in Iranian airspace..
Identify yourself.'
Aircraft:'This is a United States aircraft. I am in Iraqi airspace.'
Air Defense Radar:'You are in Iranian airspace. If you do not depart our
airspace we will launch interceptor aircraft!'
Aircraft:'This is a United States Marine Corps F/A-18 fighter. Send 'em up, I'll
wait!'
Air Defense Radar:(no response ..... total silence)
God bless our troops.
Love it. Just love it.
You have to love it!!
"Our warnings are not empty rhetoric." – Hah! They give 'strong warnings' about everything under the sun down there. I can't wait for the day NK falls. It's coming. I don't condone war, nobody wants to see war over there because it will be terribly messy, but it's going to happen sooner or later. May as well get it over with, then we can quit listening to their empty rhetoric.
I really doubt it that Iran wants to start a war against either the United States are Israel!!!
Empty rhetoric is all South Korea is capable of blah blah blah heard it all before.
Oops typo I meant North Korea!
North Korea said Friday it would "react with strong physical retaliation to the anti-submarine drill to be staged by the group of traitors in the West Sea," --
That the third or fourth time they said that...So what are they going to do?? Jump up and down vigorously until exhausted??? Do it or STFU!!!
like! lol
Promises, promises....Since when does NK keep ANY of its promises?
North Korea didn't sink the south korean ship. Weird how the ship sunk right before the reelection of the south korean hardliner president weird how they would not let north korean investigators even look at the evidence. ya north korea is a joke but south korea's politicians are no different then western politicians in that they take full advantage of all crisis and emergencys and pass rules and regulations to further there political party's interests and to get votes.
LOL ... are you for real??? Put down your crayons and go ask your mommy for a cookie before your nap!!!
The sad thing is that the US will be involved in a nuclear war with N. Korea & Iran within 2-3 years.
Israel can take care of Iran and the United States can handle North Korea with before they got nukes!!!
Cross this line.....and you die!......oh OK now you cross this line you die!!.......OK wait.....now cross this line....
HA HA HA That's good Steve. Best one I've read yet. LOL I like it, it's the truth!
you guys talk exactly like Americans that don't know squat about our nations history past, present, and future... especially you Larry Valecia, Calif. jack ass North Korea is always going to make threats but kim jong il isn't the issue hes going to die soon from cancer besides he put his youngest son in power and hes a crazy SOB and obviously China is on their side because they haven't threatened or pressured the North . . . all you Americans care about is DEATH to other Countries but When the US is involved you have sympathy how pathetic . . . all you retards worry about your own Country and stop bashing on the North and South Koreas issues // stupid cowboys
your an ass
We don't like killing People!!! But let anyone do anything against Our Country they will pay a high price for it!!!
we all must face death.
they are a bunch of cowboys.. and their day will come.. if it hasnt already.. they are just riding the last waves of their golden age.... they are living in a geocentric culture... but to them the universe revolves the only thing they know..the usa.. can't wait for reality to hit'em in the face
If it wasn't for America, many countries would have fallen to their agressers. so you need to rethink your no factual remarks about us. Muslims are the lovers of DEATH. You are an idot!
Is ROC your name, or what resides inside your weak-minded little skull??
"react with strong physical retaliation" is N. Korean for "I will vomit all over myself and annoy you with my smell"
tHIS WAR IS GOING no place, NK is all stupidity and no guts.
The rest of the World doesn't want North Korea to have a nuke not only the United States!!! So they have to worry a lot more than they did the first time they got involved with us...
