Well to be brutally honest, they have every right to test missiles if they so choose to do so.

However, it just proves that North Korea's leader isn't the sharpest tack in the box. Seems like a moronic choice of activities during high tension periods such as we now find ourselves in at the moment.

I highly doubt North Korea would attack South Korea toady. Since it's the 60 anniversary of the Korean War.

Just for laughs. I uploaded a picture of a happy North Korean solider.

I don't know, the first sinking was the exact same type of ship w/ approx. the same ratio of men killed. I'm thinking someone on before it's news got a little mixed up and is reporting on the very old news of the previous sinking. At least, I hope!

I remember something like that happened on a news site during the build-up to the Iraq War. They got an old news story about Iraq firing dozens of missiles at Israel during the Gulf War in 1991 and reprinted it like it was new news. Very confusing, but I caught it immediately because for some reason I had remembered the exact number of missiles were the same from the original incident (couldn't tell you what that was now). Very quickly the offending story was removed, but not before some people got very confused including the mother of a work colleague who was freaking out and calling her daughter about it.

See, he's happy because at least he gets fed.

I think all the North Korean soldiers get fed. You can't have a military and they couldn't even pick up their own weapons.

But...but...the 6 in 60th is significant!

And...and...if N. Korea lined up 6 soldiers and S. Korea lined up 6...you'd have...

[sorry...couldn't resist.]

That was his point...the military gets fed, and the rest get what is left over, if anything.

Perhaps you've heard of the Songun policy of the North that says that the military is most important and takes priority over all other facets of life.

This policy explains how a country with nukes and advanced ballistic missiles can't feed its own people and allows millions to starve to death, even with massive amounts of aid.

Regarding the story in the OP, I have seen a lot of outrageous claims being posted with beforeitsnews as the only source. Until I see one story of theirs corroborated by at least one other news outlet or reputable source, I have to regard these stories as pure bunk.

This story seems to be a 4chan hoax.

Those guys... are total retards.

The only thing that could happen on the Korean peninsula is NKorea testing missiles.

From what I've read, South korea has been giving the North supplies of some sort. Maybe they'll just cut off thier supplies.

yeah i gotta call bullsh*t, sorry everyone. no confirmations anywheres... my bad (RIP Manute Bol)

I googled South Korean english news and looked at three of their major news contributors and none say anything about this story. The top story is S. Korea vs Uruguay in a soccer match. I would expect is anything like this happened it would be in their news first.

Wow, you guys are gullible. Those pesky kids from 4chan have been playing around and trying to make the world believe that war has broken out. I watched it, and rolled my eyes thinking that no one would fall for it. Low and behold, someone did. Move along there is no story here, and I am glad some individuals realized that there was no story here.

This is bad news for America . The world over knows they are a shy reticent people , loathe to stick their noses in other peoples business . What will they do in their utmost reluctance to address this issue ? They will be in constaint dilemma , bought upon by their inner refinement , of inbred taciturnity , they will be in a hellhole of inner turmoil as they wrestle with the consequences of this event in order that they may retain a dignified and refrained countenance .
