US vows punishment for North Korea over ship sinking

The US state department says there "will definitely be consequences" for North Korea following the sinking of a South Korean warship in March.

The North is facing international condemnation after investigators blamed it for the sinking of the ship, in which 46 sailors died.

Pyongyang has rejected the claim as a "fabrication" and threatened war if sanctions were imposed.

The US has some 28,000 troops stationed in the South following the 1950-53 Korean War.

What do you think? Could this be time for the US to move in?

Does anyone remember the future weapons systems video about North Korea? Wasn't that set for 2011?

I think the US would love an excuse to get into North Korea, but I don't know if this is really enough, I would expect really it would need an American to be killed before they would really get the public on board, but who knows.
