Just What We Need….North Koreans Planning A War?!

South Korea’s Chosun Ilbo has a disturbing report about the activities of Kim Jung Il. Apparently he has been spending time at “Building 3” which houses the military commands that plan war on the south. This comes on top of warnings from a North Korean General, as well as increased training for North Korean artillery units and sea infiltration groups. An excerpt:

“North Korean leader Kim Jong-il secretly visited a building where agencies engaged in military operations against South Korea are clustered and the General Reconnaissance Bureau last month, a source said Sunday.

The so-called Building No. 3 houses the United Front Department and the Workers Party’s international affairs department. The General Reconnaissance Bureau, an agency in charge of armed provocations against the South, is believed to have supervised the sinking of the Navy corvette Cheonan last year.

“Kim Jong-il inspected the areas and encouraged agents” on his visits, a North Korean source said. “It seems highly likely that the regime will provoke again in case its charm offensive falls on deaf ears.”

At a meeting in Pyongyang Sunday, a day before the North Korean Army’s 79th anniversary, Minister of the People’s Armed Forces Kim Yong-chun said, “A tense situation is being created on the Korean Peninsula, where nobody knows when a war could break out.” And the Committee for the Peaceful Reunification of the Fatherland on Saturday warned that the North will “no longer insist on dialogue,” if the South continues to ignore its overtures.

The regime has apparently stepped up sea infiltration drills and artillery training in recent days even as it has been pushing for inter-Korean talks on various issues.”
