Seoul - North Korea on Saturday warned it was prepared to use nuclear weapons if it was invaded by the US and South Korea.
The official Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) carried the remarks by the North's Joint Chief, General Ri Yong-Ho, during a national meeting on the eve of the birthday of the communist country's armed forces.
"The revolutionary armed forces of the DPRK (North Korea) are fully ready to frustrate any provocation of the aggressors at a single blow," Ri said.
"They will mobilise all means including the nuclear deterrent... should the US imperialists and the South Korean puppet warmongers dare intrude into the inviolable sky, land and seas of the DPRK even 0.001mm," he said.
He added that "a grave situation is now prevailing on the Korean Peninsula" because of the neighbouring South and its ally the US, who he said wanted to start a war.
The harsh rhetoric comes as tensions between the two Koreas are high over the sinking of a South Korean warship in March near the disputed sea border in the Yellow Sea with a loss of 46 lives.

Why do we still feed these people?
Someone needs to go in and rescue their women.
I volunteer.
lol — exactly.
LOL looks like they might tear something.
Under Reagan, just threatening to use nukes against us or our allies would have been sufficient cause for glassing the place. Everyone knew it, so noone did it.
Obama will just try more appeasement.
Shows how far the US has fallen...

Uummmmm, yeah. That’s 395 / 1,000,000ths of an inch. We prolly won’t need to do that, at least I don’t think so.
Will we?
Kim will not go politely.
He will either initiate a war knowing it will destroy North Korea (with the sick reasoning of rather see the country destroyed than lose power), or he will be taken out by his own army (think Ceausescu). The latter, though still messy, is preferable.
One Peacekeeper missile should do the job.
Oh,.......nevermind.
Looks like the top lefty himself in the top left.
The norks are the pitbull on the leash and the chicoms are the commie thug gangbangers holding the other end.
It's their way of gaining "implausible deniability" regarding their nuke and missile proliferation to our enemies.
What country would want to invade a country where the population is starving? Why would we want to feed them when there are others who are also in need of food.!?
Not again!
I dunno Fred, there are probably people running his military that are every bit as bad as Kim, if not worse...
Peacekeepers carry MIRVs. One would be overkill.
I’d be good with it...
