N.Korea rejects warship sinking evidence
www.sbs.com.au
SHENYANG, China, May 30 (Yonhap) -- China appears to be seeking greater economic cooperation with North Korea, despite tensions over the North's sinking of a South Korean naval ship, as provincial officials exchange visits and Beijing's top envoy calls for greater business ties.

Well yes i did read actually thanks but i am responding to the idea that the goal of US is to start a war.
If the idea is, yes as predictable as ever..., that the US wants to start a war in the Korean Peninsula then simply answer the question - Why has it not happened?
Secondly and even more obviously, if the US or SK 'wants' war then why did they not just retaliate against the 'attack' on the ship back in March? They would have had every right to do so if they believed it was NK yet no military action has or is being taken. That does not seem like the actions of two countries desperate to set up a war..

Okay, you tell me when in the 20th century Nk has been forthright and open with honesty and good intentions.

SEOUL, May 31 (Yonhap) -- North Korea is expected to make an announcement over the sinking of a South Korean warship when it convenes a rare second session of its legislature next week, South Korea's Unification Ministry said Monday.
North Korea's Supreme People's Assembly (SPA), which held its annual session in April, is scheduled to meet again on June 7. It is rare for the 687-member parliament, which usually rubber stamps policies of leader Kim Jong-il, to convene more than once a year.
South Korean troops, backed by dozens of attack helicopters, have staged a drill to thwart a simulated attack by North Korea near their tense border.
Tensions have risen sharply since a multinational investigation concluded on May 20 that a North Korean submarine fired a torpedo to break the South Korean corvette in two with the loss of 46 lives.
US Admiral Michael Mullen, the top US military officer, said on Sunday he was concerned about a possible North Korean 'follow-on' to the torpedo attack.
South Korea Tuesday stepped up its campaign to hold North Korea responsible at the UN Security Council for sinking a warship, briefing visiting Russian experts and sending an envoy to the United States.
A team of Russian naval experts arrived Monday to review the findings of a multinational investigation team, which concluded last month that a North Korean submarine torpedoed the South Korean ship with the loss of 46 lives.
The Russians, including experts on torpedoes and submarines, will stay in South Korea until June 7 to debrief investigators, inspect the wreckage and visit the site of the sinking, defence and foreign ministry officials said.
