After the largest live fire exercises in Korean history, involving tanks, fighter planes, and helicopters, North Korea says it is "ready for a 'sacred war of justice' using a nuclear deterrent". The great leader Kim Yong-chun accuses South Korea of preparing for war, while the South Korean President Lee Myung-bak promises immediate retaliation for any Northern aggression.
The South Korean military admits that the exercises was aimed to display their power and both sides continue to throw threats at each other, but will they back it up? China, Russia, and the US wish to defuse tensions between the two countries, but the US, Japan, and South Korea do not wish to return to the six nation talks, which previously involved rewards for North Korea if it cut back on nuclear development.
Will both countries fail to back their bark, or will they act upon it? Will this be the first nuclear war? Only time will tell.
