SEOUL (AFP) – North Korea accused South Korea's navy Tuesday of trespassing in its waters and threatened military action, further raising tensions sparked by the sinking of one of Seoul's warships in March.

The South has announced a series of reprisals including a trade ban after a multinational investigation concluded last week that a North Korean submarine had torpedoed the Cheonan on March 26.

If the intrusions continued, the North "will put into force practical military measures to defend its waters...and the South side will be held fully accountable for all the ensuing consequences".

Boundaries change minute by minute with the nutty North. Reminiscent of Libya's "Line of Death" in the Gulf of Sidra.

Probably nothing more than Saber Rattling on the part of The KFR.

They and China are examining if the Obama Administration has turned us into a bunch of paper tigers. Their suspicions will shortly be confirmed.

I feel SOOOoooo much safer with Hillary on the scene.

What worries me is what this loonie-toon will try next. The Norks have escalated things from just words to acts of war that killed 46 SK sailors. There’s no telling what he plans next, and I have no doubt he has some sort of plan in the making.
