Korea Tensions Pale Alongside Agenda To Attack Iran
We only go to war with countries who can't fight

An
incident in the Yellow Sea that could trigger further heightened
tension between North and South Korea is likely to be played
down by the globalist power structure in the U.S. because it
threatens the focus of their agenda in the middle east.
Reports
suggest that a South Korean ship sunk in waters
south of the maritime border could have been struck by a North
Korean torpedo.
Many of the crew of 104 are feared dead and further reports
have suggested that another South Korean ship has fired at unidentified
objects, in the direction of North Korea, while patrolling in
nearby waters.
The details are unclear at this time. All that is confirmed
is that the 1,200-ton Cheonan began to sink around 9:45 p.m.
off Baengnyeong Island in the West Sea, following an explosion
in the stern.
The news broke shortly after North Korea announced it was fortifying
its naval force in response to joint US-South Korean military
exercises held earlier this month.
Tensions have been running high between the two Koreas recently,
following the North's unilateral withdrawal from the armistice
defining the border between the two countries last May, returning
the two countries to a de jure state of war.
In January, the North lashed
out at the South's plan to launch a “preemptive strike”
to thwart any nuclear attack from Pyongyang, with State media
calling it “an open declaration of war”.
In February, South Korea announced that it had deployed
advanced weapons-tracking radar systems on islands
near its disputed Yellow Sea border with North Korea following
artillery barrages by the North.
After declaring two “no sail” zones, the communist
state fired 370 shells into the sea near the border over three
straight days, heightening tensions on the Korean peninsula.
The sea border was the scene of two previous deadly naval battles
in 1999 and 2002.
Hours before today's incident, North Korea’s military
accused the United States and South Korea of trying to topple
the Pyongyang regime and
said it was ready to launch nuclear attacks to
frustrate any provocations.
The U.S. has some 29,000 troops stationed throughout South
Korea, present since the end of the Korean War in 1953. A Mutual
Security Agreement between the two countries ties the U.S. into
defending South Korea in the event of outside aggression.
The U.S. will almost certainly do its utmost to play down
the incident, given that a war with a heavily armed nuclear
Communist nation won't sit so well with the American people.
Any military confrontation could also ultimately lead to a
conflict with China, North Korea’s close neighbor and
ally.
Indeed, damage control already begun, with the
Joint Chiefs of Staff stating there is a possibility
that the explosion was caused by the boat’s own explosives.
“We do not know the cause of the incident, so we cannot
clearly say the sinking was caused by North Korea,” Rear
Admiral Lee told reporters.
The JCS have also said that the suspicious object fired upon
after it appeared on the second South Korean ship's radar was
believed to be a flock of birds.
Furthermore, as we have consistently highlighted, the U.S.
power structure and its military industrial complex bedfellows
do not want the
origins of North Korea's devastating weapons arsenal made
common knowledge.
Despite the fact that North Korea routinely threatens to nuke
the rest of the world, runs long range missile tests like there's
no tomorrow, has starved up to four million of its citizens
to death, and ships political dissidents and protesters off
to a network of forced labor gulags, we are supposed to believe
that Iran/Iraq/Afghanistan/Pakistan is the most deadly threat
to the world.
North Korea is a constant nuisance to the globalist rulers
in the West, because it becomes a great deal more difficult
to sell the idea of wars against countries with little means
of defending themselves against the might of the most powerful
military on the planet while a hereditary Stalinist dictatorship
is threatening to nuke us into extinction.
"Rogue" states with limited defensive capabilities
are targeted by the globalists on a whim, but countries that
have amassed a nuclear arsenal, with receipts from the US government
to prove it, seem to become immune to the global "democracy
drive", no matter how atrocious their human rights record.
