A long-festering maritime border dispute between the Koreas--North Korea has angrily ended the latest round of high-level military talks over the issue--could cause the North to drag its feet on implementing the six-nation nuclear disarmament deal, or even to test-fire more missiles in a provocative show of defiance.

Yes, this has been heating up just under the surface.
It could blow up again as a naval firefight this year. N. Korea will push it as it had been before. This is one of their pet agenda.

Yep. And there is not a damned thing we (the USA) can or would do about it. And DPRK knows this full well.

We’re CAPABLE of doing plenty. We simply lack the guts... and the foresight... and the guts.

I asked a friend recently retired from the East Asian section of C.I.A. intelligence if he could tell me anything non-sensitive about N. Korea.
He said that while it’s hard to get on-the-ground agents there, they do get reports and they’re wildly different each week. Sometimes they hear “these guys just want to be left alone” and sometimes they here “these guys are gunning for a fight, and they want it now.” Go figure. This has got to be one of the strangest, and scariest, places on Earth.

My comment was directed to the representative of the idiotic “we don’t have the guts” panty twisting club.

My comment was directed towards Snowrip. I just don’t understand why we want to bother with policing the entire world.
