North Korea vows nuclear attack on US; Washington will be 'engulfed in a sea of fire'
I'm not sure how to take this......
North Korea vows nuclear attack on US, saying Washington will be 'engulfed in a sea of fire'
Published March 07, 2013
FoxNews.com
North Korea amplified its threatening rhetoric as the U.N. Security Council approved new sweeping sanctions, vowing to launch a first-strike nuclear attack against the United States and threatening to engulf Washington in a "sea of fire."
An unidentified spokesman for Pyongyang's Foreign Ministry said the North will exercise its right for "a preemptive nuclear attack to destroy the strongholds of the aggressors" because Washington is pushing to start a nuclear war against the North.
At a mass rally in Pyongyang on Thursday, Army Gen. Kang Pyo Yong told the crowd that North Korea is ready to fire long-range nuclear-armed missiles at Washington.
"Intercontinental ballistic missiles and various other missiles, which have already set their striking targets, are now armed with lighter, smaller and diversified nuclear warheads and are placed on a standby status," Kang said. "When we shell (the missiles), Washington, which is the stronghold of evils, .... will be engulfed in a sea of fire."

Being an optimist, I can see some good out of this.

I doubt they have the ability for an intercontinental strike. Maybe they could get with Iran and have their space monkey drop one.
Just shows what a lunatic screwball government is in charge. Hard to say if this shit is coming from Kin Jung Loon or his handlers.
An attack on the South is always a possibility, but given their economic woes, even the die hard Northerners must realize that would be suicide.

If we are really serious about peace, maybe we should at least consider the possibility of creating the Democratic Peoples Republic of United Amer-Asian States?
...with our resources, and Kim Jong Un's HUGE balls, we would be unstoppable on the global stage.
The DPRUAAS...
...anyone?
I agree with AKV; this is a tale of two leaders, one is an ego driven, small minded nut job propped up by a state ran media, the other is...
never mind

Maybe NK saw how screwed up DC is & decided, better to save their resources for another suitable target.

Nuclear Kabuki theatre.
If I were South Korean I think I'd fear the following voicemail message at the Blue House the most:
"Herro! We've wetired to Zimbabwe. We weft the keys at the DMZ. Good wuck."
Although I think nuclear asymmetric stupidity ranks a close second.
When, not if, NK implodes...the price tag to bring them into the early 20th century is going to make the cost of West Germany bringing East Germany into the 1980's is going to look quite cheap by comparison.
If I were South Korea, I'd be looking to double the razor wire and mines on the DMZ to stop the zombie hordes flooding south.
