(timetravel wooo) Pyongyang warns South Korea
North Korea, facing international censure for this week’s nuclear test, threatened today to attack the South after it joined a US-led plan to check vessels suspected of carrying equipment for weapons of mass destruction.
In Moscow, news agencies quoted an official as saying that Russia is taking precautionary security measures because it fears mounting tensions over the test could escalate to war.
Adding to mounting tension in the region, South Korean media reported that Pyongyang had restarted a plant that makes plutonium that can be used in nuclear bombs.
North Korea’s latest threat came after Seoul announced, following the North’s nuclear test on Monday, it was joining the US-led Proliferation Security Initiative, launched under the George W. Bush administration as a part of its “war on terror”.
“Any hostile act against our peaceful vessels including search and seizure will be considered an unpardonable infringement on our sovereignty and we will immediately respond with a powerful military strike,” a North Korean army spokesman was quoted as saying by the official KCNA news agency.
So if they starts to mess with the boats they are sending there, the war is 'on' ... Could get bad this, it doesnt take more than and 'failed' missile launch and if it lands or travel towards S Korean border, S Korea will have no choice but to retaliate ...
