The world's longest-running war just heated up again.

North Korea on Tuesday fired dozens of artillery shells at a South Korean island, in one of the heaviest bombardments on the South since the Korean War ended in 1953.

CRIMENY!!!!! Get ready for their nuke plant to have a finger shaken at.
That will teach those buggers.
Dont make us angry. You won't like us when we're angry. Like DMartyr said, we might even send you a nasty-gram. AND send it postage DUE.. mwuhahahahaa
FOXNEWS says it perfectly:
"A video captures the moment of impact as a North Korean artillery shellexplodes near an office building on the South Korean island ofYeonpyeong — an attack that brought a warning of retaliation from theSouth"
So, a tyrannical gov't attacks you and you only say, "Don't do it again or we might do something" !!!?!?!?!? WTH!?!?
Again,
A senior military official tells Fox News "no one is interested in escalating this, but we are taking this very seriously."
North Korea's supreme military command threatened to continue military strikes against South Korea if it violated their disputed sea border "even 0.001 millimeter," according to the North's official Korean Central News Agency.
The firing came amid South Korean military drills in the area.
Time to ESCALATE PEOPLE!!!
are you sure its the longest running war? and not say, Lebanon/Syria v Israel? which dates from 1948, and no peace treaty has been signed there either (unlike Jordan and Egypt)...
Haha, I suppose you're right, Anon. I do tend to recite useless incorrect catchphrases from memory a bit too often.
Towards correction, here's more on the world's longest wars. Thanks for keeping me on the straight and narrow!
catchphrases? Like "AMerica is the free-ist country on Earth." ????
Welp, looks like either things are ramping up, or down. I can't quite tell.
We haven't seen any pictures of damage done to N. Korea. We haven't heard much except for one report where the South is talking of a reprisal. Everyone else is telling the South to remain calm while being shelled to not make the North mad.
You know, if I were the South and my civilians just got hammered like that, I would fire a few missiles at the North's nuclear complexes. I would blockade their seas.
I just don't understand why free country's put up with bullying and terror like we do?!!?
I heard the Obamessiah told them to stop.
And the U.N. plans to send a letter of reprimand in BOLD text.
North Korea is in big trouble now.
