North Korea cancels naval treaty

Does Kim Jung Il have the stones in his pantsuit to see this through?

North Korea has announced it is canceling a treaty with South Korea designed to prevent accidental naval clashes. The step has been taken in response to Seoul blaming Pyongyang for a torpedo attack that sank a South Korean warship.

Tension on the divided peninsula rose after a team of international investigators said a torpedo fired by a North Korean submarine sunk a South Korean warship on March 26, killing 46 sailors. North Korea has denied involvement and warned that retaliation would lead to war…

On Thursday, North Korea’s military said it will “completely nullify” an inter-Korean accord aimed at preventing accidental armed skirmishes along the disputed western sea border — a scene of three bloody maritime battles between the two Koreas.

“Immediate physical strikes will be launched” against any South Korean ships that intrude into North Korean waters, the country’s military said in a statement, carried by the official Korean Central News Agency.

So ronery…
