SEOUL—North Korea has denied sinking a South Korean navy ship, but the regime is also circulating a propaganda poster that appears to brag about the incident in which 46 people died.
The poster, photographed by a visiting Chinese businessman, shows a helmeted North Korean sailor smashing a ship in two.
“We will smash you with a single blow if you attack!” it reads.
The businessman, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said that high-ranking North Korean traders he dealt with “expressed self-esteem in relation to North Korea’s military strength” and told him, “regardless of U.N. sanctions, we [North Koreans have] never stopped reacting.”
“It’s hard to understand how high-ranking officials can adamantly deny North Korea’s responsibility for the sinking of the Cheonan while propaganda posters showing a ship being broken in half by a fist are in circulation,” he said.
‘Just like the Cheonan’
According to one South Korean military expert, the vessel “broken in half in the poster is not a destroyer or another type of ship, but a corvette, just like the Cheonan.”
“North Korea appears to be using the imagery of the sinking of the Cheonan for propaganda aimed at inspiring its soldiers,” the analyst said.

the best option now is to help this regime with PEACE SOLUTIONS
give them food... remove all sanctions... dont put NK on the axe of evil list ... that will be a good start to avoid war
with that kind of attidude its easy to communicate with others
its like a day to day life of many of human being ...
you provoque somebody with hostility
means you want to fight....
especially after being accused of something you didnt do
you can have 2 reactions from NK in this provocation..
1) bow to the bully guy and knee yourself before him
2) respond with a quick right to the jaw ...

So you are saying that the US should give more than 500000 metric tons of food gift it already gives to NK?
Also if NK did away with its nuke program and went with the FREE cold fusion French one, reduced its army to actually feed its people with American food, and removed the military from the DMZ do you think the angry hordes would come across it?
I guess owning the largest comic book collection in the world has its own threats for I fail to see anything of worth that anyone would want from old Kim, well other than to reunite families...

Canada is a safe haven? Yeah, right.
I mean, once you Canadians find out how tasty our bacon is compared to that round bologna crap you're passing off as bacon, you'll be in a shooting war with the US. Time to get dug in.

I do not see why people do not see what i see, it is in front of your eyes. NORTH KOREA, IRAN , VENEZUELLA, CUBA, AND OTHER SMALL COUNTRIES, are used as lap dogs to start a conflict. IT IS THE COLD WAR ALL OVER AGAIN. Find or build a bunker now while you still can.

that would be a first to me
i didnt know NK would first accept that from the USA
about the nukes NO ONES especially the USA...snip....
(who have the largest comic book collection in the world ??? you or kim lol ) didnt get that clear

ahahahah just learned it ... didnt know about this huge collection
i know the guy is insane .. that is some major indication
who knows .. maybe its a gift for his son ... cant confirm this
I dont think US with SK will make a Irak#2 and later hang Kim like Saddam
thats why the only choice with this situation
you cant label NK in a axis of evil and put sanctions on the country....
it will only worsen things and make the NK population suffer more
but whoever did that attack on the SK warship vessel and killing 46good men will suffer the consequence
all i have see so far is just another false flag op media propaganda
my deep instinct tells me it was NOT NK who attacked the SK ship
since 9/11 (conspiracy theory) like this have been labelled CONSPIRACY to hide the truth ... USS liberty happened .. nobody was punished ..
the NK have no reasons to make a new war
this attack on the SK vessel was aimed at the NK
i can smell the heat coming ... thats why WE NEED TO QUESTION EVERYTHINGS

Rumsfeld was on ABB board during deal with North Korea
21.02.2002
Swiss stand sentinel on last Cold War divide
Donald Rumsfeld, the US secretary of defence, was on the board of technology giant ABB when it won a deal to supply North Korea with two nuclear power plants.
Weapons experts say waste material from the two reactors could be used for so-called “dirty bombs”.
The Swiss-based ABB on Friday told swissinfo that Rumsfeld was involved with the company in early 2000, when it netted a $200 million (SFr270million) contract with Pyongyang.
