Update..

(Nov. 26) -- Thunderous booms from North Korean artillery have rattled the remote fishing island at the center of the Koreas' latest standoff for a second time this week, as Pyongyang warned "trigger-happy" U.S. forces that their upcoming military drills with the South inch the peninsula "closer to the brink of war."

China weighed in too, with its Foreign Ministry voicing its first official protest against U.S.-South Korean military exercises, set to begin Sunday. But the ministry statement was more muted than past ones, revealing that Beijing may be seeking to tamp down tensions on all sides. Washington and Seoul have been pushing China to wield its influence with Pyongyang to get it to back down.

The sounds of bombardment sent civilians on Yeonpyeong Island running for cover today, but no shells landed on the island, and it appears the booms were part of a North Korean naval drill out at sea. Still, the firing frayed nerves, while the top U.S. military commander in South Korea, Gen. Walter Sharp, toured the island and surveyed damage from Tuesday's artillery barrage that killed four people, two South Korean marines and two civilians.

Oh boy China protests US/SK drills.
 
That protest from China was a lot weaker than the one they issued when they were afraid of joint US/SK drills after NK sank that South Korean ship.

My family and friends appreciate my good qualities so the opinions of a bunch of Americans who can't take a joke are less important than the last thing I flushed down the toilet.

Aren't the opinions of Americans what you started whining about in this thread to begin with?

North Korea is just lucky they don't have an abundence of oil.

Or Canada. Or Saudi Arabia. Or Russia.

Here we go again.....

Where is all this oil that we're supposed to be getting from Iraq?

Oh I know, it was given to us through BP and we have to skim it out of the gulf!

Thanks Iraq! :yess:

You're so ____ing awesome. :love
 
This is what happens when you treat despots with kid gloves,they wait you out while you make peace overtures, offer aid and engage in "meaningful and constructive dialogue".
All the while they shine you on while building those "peaceful" reactors.
Same things happening in Iran with Russia and China offering to help anyone who wants to pony up the dough.
Nobody took N.Korea to task for the ship sinking, so what a shock they think they can get away with shelling a small town (and they're right)
The U.N. actually offered more aid to N. Korea after the shelling!!!!
The U.S. and S.Korea better grow a pair right quick.
But they wont.
How many times do we have to go through this painful lesson until we learn to put these mad dogs down?

I'm kinda with BCM on this one, especially after all those Iraqi children that ____ing got bombed all to ____ by the Americans, this just provokes a neverending hatred..think about it..just say America made up some BS story about Canada having WMD's and took pics of industrial areas in Toronto and labeled them WMD sites(just like they did to Iraq)..then all of a sudden come and bomb the ____ out of my country killing my family, of ____ing course i would want to kill every American that stepped on my land especially after all this happending.

Pride your military all you want, i can't say any of this mess really changed anything for the better..lots of innocent people were murdered first by Americans...don't pretend like the world doesn't know or remember.

And yea Britain is Americas hand puppet in ways but, we had Jean Chretien as our PM before the Iraq invasion to set ____ straight and show the world that we Canadians won't participate in this retarded ____.

I guess it's a good thing for Iraq that those 150 Canadians didn't stay...:lol

Don't worry Val... your BIG brother down south will still protect you nonetheless...:flag :wave



Your little rant/analogy there was pretty funny and shows how F'd up you are in your perceptions...:cuckoo:
Maybe you should ask all the Iraqi families who had loved ones actually murdered by the dictatorship they were under what they feel... if you don't understand that you live in safety because your connected to us and share a common culture you really need to wake up...:slap
 
The impression I got when Bush said he was going to invade Iraq was that everyone who wanted to share in the global 9/11 sympathy never even considered the possibility of war as a response. It was like they thought making us a cup of tea and letting us talk about our feelings was the answer, and they ____ a brickhouse when he did it.

Don't get me wrong. I like tea, and Iraq was not the right target, but anyone who thought that the answer was anything less than a full military response against the historical state sponsors of Islamic terrorism, was not thinking with their own best interests. Unless, of course, their interests were advanced by 9/11, and in that case, ____ them and the pony Santa never brought them for Christmas.

"Once the enemy attacks us, it is our duty to respond even more strongly," said student Jeon Hyun-soo, 19. "The South Korean people want this."


You sink our ship, we sink yours, you shell our town, you get shelled.
It'll just get worse if we dont.
The longer you delay, the weaker you look.
I'm sure Iran felt emboldened after seeing what the world did with Kim Il Jong all these years (i.e. nothing) and look, theyve gotta reactor now as well.
This is exactly what you get when you try to work with the U.N. and give a .....what the world community thinks.
I also blame our own administrations starting with Bush Sr who kept kicking the can down the road to other administrations.
Half wits.

Amazingly, if we do respond even in a measured and proportionate way, more than half the world will think we're in the wrong.

*sigh*...Yea, no ____ about the genocide of the Kurdish people that had been going on for a long long time, and you guys turned right around and left when they wanted you to come take out Saddam during Operation Dessert Storm, and it would have looked less worse on your country then, to have acted.

I just think 98-107,000 dead civilians looks real bad on the US, especially considering your government had used falsified intel against Iraq to push for a war...nothing ____ed up about that huh?. :)

If you believe your country had every right to go over there, then you are truly ____ed in the head my friend, not i.

wow. we only have 150 soldiers huh, and do not do anything to help your countries causes. that Is why your country is constantly pleading with Canada not to leave the Afghanistan combat mission in 2011 over and over. sound like you need us more then you think.
