North Korea tells Brit diplomats to get out — then sets chilling April 10 deadline
The Sun ^ | 4/5/13 | Jack Losh

ROGUE state North Korea today sparked fears that it could trigger a nuclear strike as early as next WEDNESDAY.

Crackpot Kim Jong-un’s regime today issued a chilling threat to British diplomats warning them to get out of Pyongyang.

Alarmingly the North Korean government said it would not be able to guarantee the safety of embassies from April 10.

Russian diplomats have also been advised to evacuate.

Today the Foreign Office added that it is “considering next steps” after the threat.

It is still unclear why next Wednesday has been set as a deadline – but it is sure to spark fears despot Kim Jong-un will launch an attack after that date.

This week South Korean workers employed in factories in the North were also told to leave by April 10.

I would imagine most would be happy to leave.

The North seems to be playing this one to the hilt. If I were South Korea I would hit them first. Right at the Palace this kook lives in. I would take out him and the leadership right off the bat.

So when are they going to say what they want in return for not conquering us? They can only threat for so long before the world loses interest. Dancing with the Currently unemployed or American Idle are approaching their finales.

On a side note could this be a ploy to lull us in to a weariness of their threats so we quit watching and them they do something?

EMP - comming to a large North American nation near you.

(They have nukes, but no reliable delivery system, BUT they have launched 3-stage rockets able to lift a "package" into low-earth orbit - they don't really need to aim it, anywhere over North America would do the trick....)

Their current object in orbit goes over Austin TX and Washington DC about 3 times a day. Of course its working its way east so only the DC area will be an option in a few more days.

EMP - what the media can’t talk about - no power for years is scary stuff.

Ironic that you use socialist propaganda to dismiss their threat.

Even the Chicoms are backing away from the NORK’s...if it blows up China will stand down and let the boy ruler meet his fate unlike Mao back in the 50’s sending hundreds of thousands of Chinese soldiers in to fight against the US and South Koreans.
