Officials in the South Korean government are claiming that North Korea is showing signs of preparing Scud missiles.
A source told the Yonhap news agency: "The North is showing signs of deploying a Scud missile near Wonsan and a Rodong missile in the North Pyeongan Province.
"It seems that [the North] is weighing the timing of the firing under its strategic intention to increase military tension on the Korean Peninsula to the highest level."

Bron: The Telegraphquote:North Korea is ready to "go nuclear" according to a sympathiser for its regime in Japan, Julian Ryall in Tokyo reports.
A theory put forward by Kim Myong-chol, executive director of The Centre for North Korea-US Peace and a Japan-based mouthpiece for the regime in Pyongyang, is that the confrontation on the border is a conspiracy by the US and Japan designed to keep Park Geun-hye, the South Korean president, away from the upcoming ceremonies in Beijing to mark the end of the Second World War.
And he warned that the North's military will carry out its threat at 5pm local time tomorrow if South Korea does not halt the propaganda broadcasts over the border.
"If the loudspeakers are still in place at 5pm tomorrow, then the North will attack with artillery, from the air and with land forces", he told The Telegraph.
"What happens after that depends on the reaction of South Korea and the US", he said. "The North does not want a war, but South Korea and the US want war. So we will destroy their forces in an instant".
Asked how the destruction of all the South Korean and US forces stationed south of the Demilitarised Zone might be achieved, Mr Kim said the North is ready to use its nuclear weapons.
"It depends on the situation and the reactions of South Korea and the US, but it could be a nuclear war", he said. "The choice is up to the Americans".

Toch altijd weer spannend, maar bijna lachwekkend hoe Noord-Korea maar blijft vasthouden dat ze klaar zijn om dat verschrikkelijke zuiden te verslaan. En dan vervolgens zetten ze alles weer on hold en verwachten dat mensen het volgend jaar weer zullen geloven.
Daar ga ik niet over, en het zal zeker een erg slechte keuze of zelfs zelfmoord zijn van Noord-Korea.quote:Op vrijdag 21 augustus 2015 13:05 schreef DustPuppy het volgende:

Tensions on the divided Korean peninsula have soared following an exchange of artillery fire on Thursday that put the South Korean army on maximum alert.
Officials in the 28-nation European Union (EU) are "monitoring" events and are in "close contact with our partners," including the South Korean government through the EU delegation in Seoul and its embassy in Brussels, the spokesman added.

quote:North Korean Scud missiles "targeting 11 sites"
South Korean intelligence sources say Kim Jong-un has pinpointed 11 sites which he aims toi destroy with Scud missiles based in North Pyeongan Province.
The South Koreans are said to be expecting an attack, and have confirmed that they will retaliate.
Meanwhile conservative protests in Seoul against the North Korean regime are gaining momentum, with activists angrily punching the air and brandishing anti-Kim placards.

The meeting was called to seek the support of diplomats and military personnel for the ultimatum presented to South Korea in response to the anti-Pyongyang propaganda being broadcasted across the shared DMZ.

quote:North Korea 'approves final attack plan'
A North Korean military official said a meeting of senior party and defence officials led by Kim Jong-un have "reviewed and approved the final attack operation".
He gave no details on what kind of military retaliation North Korea would see as appropriate punishment for South Korea's shelling of its territory on Thursday.
Kim Yong Chol, director of the general reconnaissance bureau of the North Korean army, denied South Korean allegations that Pyongyang has been raising tensions on the peninsula.
He also denied the North fired anything across the Demilitarised Zone and said South Korea has not offered conclusive evidence of where the rocket was launched in the North, or where exactly it landed in the South.
He suggested human error might have been a factor on the South Korean side and said the South's decision to retaliate with its own barrage was dangerous and rash.
Mr Kim said: "Skirmishes can lead to all-out war."

De Zuid Koreanen, VS en China kunnen prima samen door een deur. Het wordt dan gewoon een protectoraat van China o.i.d. met een 'normale' grens.quote:Op vrijdag 21 augustus 2015 13:30 schreef Odaiba het volgende:
