1419: The New York Times reports that the South Korean Deputy Minister of Defence, Lee Yong-geul, has now acknowledged that artillery units were firing test shots on Tuesday afternoon close to the North Korean coast, from a battery on the South Korean island of Paeknyeongdo. But he denied that the shots crossed the disputed maritime border with North Korea.


Here is the important line.
"But he denied that the shots crossed the disputed maritime border with North Korea."

But I am sure NK see that location as their own land.

As someone mentioned earlier. Both side are lying


Odd. I really don't know what I make of this. So they were firing artillery into the water?

Not to sound callous to those who were effected, but 70-200 artillery strikes on a relatively small island town isn't a major military action in the grand scheme of things.



Terrorists flew planes into a few buildings and look what that started.


Another excellent point aswell as the Mainila shellings.

Australian newspapers are convinced this has to do with Kim Jong-Un wanting to increase the prestige of the military and shift the power dynamics of the DPRK.

I have no idea where they're getting this.

False equivalencies. The situation is different - South Korea is not the United States and I doubt that they would invade Japan like the US did Iraq instead of Saudi Arabia.

Choi Jin-wook, a North Korea expert at the Korea Institute for National Unification in Seoul, tells the New York Times that the incident is a "sign of North Korea's increasing frustration" at the US government's refusal to remove sanctions. "Washington has turned a deaf ear to Pyongyang and North Korea is saying, 'Look here. We're still alive. We can cause trouble. You can't ignore us,'" he says. North Korea's most urgent priority is food aid, he adds.

That's pretty much speculative bullshit to be honest. Newspapers are always reaching for a sensational narrative.

Potentially the biggest load of bollocks I've ever read. But if people actually believe any of that, then more power to them. We need a mass bunch of idiots to remind ourselves how lucky we are that we aren't actually that dumb.


Considering possibility is never dumb. However disregarding possibility's as mumbo jump simply because it has never occurred before is clearly low on the IQ scale.

Everything is possible until proven impossible, and because all knowledge is based on the assumption that everything we preceptive trough our different senses is true, everything is possible and nothing can be proven impossible.

"It's very alarming what we see and of course it raises questions about what is the purpose and direction with what North Korea does. We call for calm and return to the negotiating table, "said Prime Minister Fredrik Reinfeldt during a press conference with EU President Herman Van Rompuy in Stockholm
Herman Van Rompuy said, as EU foreign policy representative, Baroness Ashton, that he is deeply concerned about what is happening.
- We condemn the attacks, said Van Rompuy and appealed for restraint."

This is NOT the thread for it though.

Create a Baba Vanga thread and take it there, imo.

Save that sort of stuff for metaphysics. I can debate the merits of nominalism vs idealism vs positivism for hours without reaching a practical conclusion.

There is a difference between being open-minded and being contrary to reason. Prophetic nonsense is just that - nonsense.

Mere possibility is highly overrated. Many things are possible, but we should focus instead on what is reasonable.

Oh well.

We still don't know if it was an independent action or supported by the NK government.

Potentially the biggest load of bollocks I've ever read. But if people actually believe any of that, then more power to them. We need a mass bunch of idiots to remind ourselves how lucky we are that we aren't actually that dumb.


Considering possibility is never dumb. However disregarding possibility's as mumbo jump simply because it has never occurred before is clearly low on the IQ scale.

Everything is possible until proven impossible, and because all knowledge is based on the assumption that everything we preceptive trough our different senses is true, everything is possible and nothing can be proven impossible.

If we applied your logic, we should seriously consider every possible outcome of every action in every frame of time that has ever existed, that exists and that will exist.

Simply said: Do we have to consider that Santa Claus actually exists, just because we haven't disproven it?

Don't argue from ignorance.

1419: The New York Times reports that the South Korean Deputy Minister of Defence, Lee Yong-geul, has now acknowledged that artillery units were firing test shots on Tuesday afternoon close to the North Korean coast, from a battery on the South Korean island of Paeknyeongdo. But he denied that the shots crossed the disputed maritime border with North Korea.


Here is the important line.
"But he denied that the shots crossed the disputed maritime border with North Korea."

But I am sure NK see that location as their own land.

As someone mentioned earlier. Both side are lying


So when your neighbor shoots into the tree between your house and his house you should response by shooting directly into the room of his kids ?


The problem is,
you think: I am shooting at my tree.
they think: They are shooting my tree.

I do not take pleassure in what has gone on back home. Being a South Korean native, I'm dissapointed and highly agitated in the way this discussion has turned into metaphysical bullshit.

FACT: The Korean War has never ended, a cease fire was agreed upon in 1955.
FACT: North Korea has grown more isolated, and more desperate with each passing month, with lack of aid from Western Powers. They feel ignored and wish to make a statement.

This, however, is not the best way to make that statement. South Korea will defend herself by any means necessary. It is legal under international law for South Korea to go completley apeshit and bomb Pyongyang into oblivion.

War for South Korea, given it's rising economic stand point, is ill advised and stupid. Why would South Korea risk it's industry, techological achievements, and citizens in an open war with North Korea, which has demonstrated nuclear strike capability in the East Asian part of the world? There is none, peace and sucessful re-unification of our land has always been the goal, and will be. At this point, it now may come down to "by whatever means necessary".

This saddens me. I'm adopted, and do not know my biological family in Korea. I've always wanted to go home and find them. It may turn out I have relatives who, unfortunatly, live across the boarder. I come from Seoul, which is on the boarder of the DMZ. A full on invasion of the south would mean Seoul would burn, and thousands of my countrymen and women would die. Possible relatives in the north would die.

I do not take solice in the fact that this may lead to the liberation of North Korea, as it would mean potentially millions of fellow Koreans, North or South, would die in the ensuing war which would eclipse the devastation brough on my homeland in the 1950s.

I pray that calm is given, and that the two side begin talking. I acknowledge, that it is not likely.

May our children forgive us.
