"Kim described the North’s expression of “regret” over the fact the mine blast left the two soldiers injured as an apology and said the loudspeaker campaign would end at noon" - article

Good for the North. The entire surreal and endless pointlessness is just too tedious with too high a price to achieve nothing. Thankfully, China, with her newly minted wealth, is working for peace on the peninsula.

Good solution. Good job by Park's national security adviser, Kim Kwan-jin, and Seoul's point man on Pyongyang, Hong Yong-pyo, and from the North were Hwang Pyong-so, the North Korean military's top political officer, and Kim Yang-gon, the top North Korean official in charge of inter-Korean affairs. Note these were not military to military talks per se, but political affairs people, suggesting a high degree of civilian "adult" control that may indicate a better foundation for inter-Korean dialogue.

I wonder now, will South Korea demand an apology from North Korea each and every year IF the two were ever to unify?

N.Korea: We're so sorry about severely injuring your soldiers. S.Korea: And we're really sorry about playing our crappy K-pop music so loudly. CNN Breaking News: Both countries have expressed sincere regret for what they've done. Close call folks but relations are back to normal again between the 2 countries.

Too bad there's no peace inside North Korea's borders.

Where's the apology? North Korea issues a statement that they regret that the South suffered casualties. North Korea learned well from Japan's doublespeak word game to vaguely shroud the words as an 'apology'. North Korea and Japan pretty similar in that they can't admit any mistakes due to nationalism.

Rubbish, they need to prepare a counter artillery strategy incase war takes place.

North korea's artillery rounds can reach seoul "main city". They need to build mass blips then put them up ahead of the city.

It would take America 18 hours 2 destroy all of NK artillery rounds, so even having them in place ready to go up with 10 min, would save mass lives and stop the city from being bombed for 18 hours.

18 hours is a short, but long time. We could build cheap made sk blimps and have them ready to cover the skies ahead of seoul. Now when all the artillery rounds come over. The blimps will be taking the hits...Not the city.

After you put bumps all in the sky, America and south korea turn all their defence missile dooms to only go for targets, by speed.

North korea can only can only fit a nuclear bomb to it's biggest missile....If they can yet.

What you do is set all missiles 2 only tagged incoming missile by speed on radar. NK missile that may be able to fit a nuclear bomb 2 it, flies at a massive speed difference from all there other missiles they have. We could set the doom to only target missiles by speed. That stops a nuclear attack on any city.

If an invasion of NK was 2 takes place, it would be small groups with massive air support.

We would use small groups incase they get done by a nuclear bomb...small losses. NK nuclear bombs are big and hard 2 move. So in the battlefield it would be luck of the area you go into.

We would also make new bombs to counter any vietnam / korean war tactics. That would be mini tunnel buster bombs that are filled with gas and oxygen.

Them bombs will get inside their tunnels and blast out gas, then light up....Sending a flame ball down the tunnels.

Now when we move forward we load planes "like ww2" and drop them bombs everywhere. That will destroy them and any bunkers / tunnel....Like the vietnam korean war tactics / problem.

I am the worlds best strategist. Check out my fb page "Oblique weapons".

I won the Iraq war for America and the Afghanistan war that is going so good.Use have know idea.

Ps Bush come out of tv saying people from the public did the strategy's, what to know why? Check out my page on fb.

Also unknow top secret strategies in the videos.

sometimes seems to me that the way a number of countries in East Asia run their foreign policies is akin to playground politics. thank goodness this little spat has been resolved without anyone having their eye poked out.

FFS, c'mon NK, FOLD ALREADY! I'm not a fan for war, but if it will finally end the NK regime for good... how many more years and (hopefully not...) decades are we going to have to suffer with NK.

Do not be fooled by "appearance" and rhetoric. We have enough of that by Obama and Clinton. And China is probably the best at it.

Look at the "significance" and the timing of it all.

Why has not the other nations respond to it more vigorously?

What happened is needed and shall occur often, as China flexes its strength.
