The Games Continue

Top News Article | Reuters.com
Hardly news worthy but I am very interested in the Korean Peninsula so I always add my two cents. North Korea is riding this "war exercise" horse until it dies -- it is bogus, these exercises have been going on, in the same time-frame for decades -- if anything they have shortened in length and dwindled in size.
SEOUL (Reuters) - The United States has brought six-party talks on North Korea's nuclear programs to a collapse, the chief of the general staff of the North Korean army said on Sunday.
Vice Marshal Kim Yong-chun, a member of the North's powerful National Defense Commission, told a national meeting his country would steadily bolster its nuclear capability to counter an invasion by the United States.
'The U.S. brought the six-party talks to a collapse and has staged large-scale madcap war exercises targeted against the DPRK after massively shipping ultra-modern war equipment and a nuclear strike group into South Korea in a bid to bring down our system,' Kim was quoted as saying by the official KCNA news agency.
