Something is up over there. North Korea promised all out war if provoked. I remember once before NK threatened to use nuke if attack. I'm wondering if they did how much leverage that would give the rest of the free world to go after Iran's Nuke program.

I agree but this idiot in NK is crazy enough to load that bomb in the back of a ton truck and run it to the border. Remeber we still have American troops deployed there.
Selig Harrison, director of the Asia programme of the Centre for International Policy in Washington and author of Korean Endgame, said: "It's generally not understood that there's been a progressively growing crisis between North and South Korea. Now we're in a new situation and I've been afraid something would give, because the present government [in Seoul] has cancelled the basic premises between North and South."
He said Seoul had announced it would review the statements in which it repudiated policies of predecessor governments designed to bring about a collapse of the North and affirmed a relationship of coexistence. "That was really a fundamental step because to North Korea it means the south is going back to the policy of promoting collapse," Harrison added.
