The problem is that the Northern Limit Line has been established for over 50 years now. Only the DPRK believes that the islands in question are theirs. These are lines that were established and confirmed INTERNATIONALLY. If North Korea has a problem with the zones, they should take it to the UN, not through shelling an island and killing civilians. The article totally fails to mention that they did not attack the Korean military, they fired on civilian areas. They were only a few meters away from destroying a school with CHILDREN in it. Yes, it stands up as being 'sane' when you fail to do any research. |
That's exactly what I said, "if you... just got here and read it all as being true".
I'm by no means "on their side" or anything like that. I know they attacked civilians and all and I don't like it.
I also don't like that the military manouver training was made there and close to civilians knowing this could happen, as I understand it was (might be wrong here). But yeah, "not on their side".
Anyway, that said, that line kinda sucks you know, was there maybe a lot of pressure involved when they acepted?
