(Reuters) - North Korea said on Saturday it was entering a "state of war" with South Korea in a continuing escalation of tough rhetoric against Seoul and Washington after coming under international sanctions for its nuclear test.

"From this time on, the North-South relations will be entering the state of war and all issues raised between the North and the South will be handled accordingly," a statement carried by the North's official KCNA news agency said.

The two Koreas have been in a technical state of war because their 1950-53 conflict ended under an armistice and not a peace treaty.

They just don't like the US bombers to fly by. Just showing off, I don't really take it that seriously.

Now, like any other time, the US will start a war and blame it on the others. Just wait and see... new textbooks are to be written soon...

Absolutely nothing.

Wrong! That's where the serious buck is made!

What???

America seem to have gone out of their way to avoid this one - If this does escalate it is entirely N Korea's fault.

These popular communist leaders act like that all the time.

[Rochard]

The logic of war seem to be that if the belligerent can fight, he will fight
That leaders will not surrender until surrender is academic
How as a national leader to explain the sacrifice of so much for nothing
Well, relax, I can explain, I don't wanna die

Now, like any other time, the US will start a war and blame it on the others. Just wait and see... new textbooks are to be written soon...

You know the United States has been the supplying grain and foodstuffs to NK for the past twenty years... For free?

U.S. flexes muscle after N. Korea provocation

WASHINGTON (MarketWatch) ? U.S. F-22 stealth fighter jets arrived in South Korea on Sunday for exercises as part of an effort to demonstrate advanced military capabilities, seeking to deter provocations from North Korea, according to reports.

The move come after North Korea warned South Korea earlier in the weekend that the Korean peninsula had entered a ?state of war,? according to an Associated Press report. Pyongyang threatened to shut down a border factory that is a symbol of North and South Korean cooperation, according to the report.

The Wall Street Journal reported Sunday that the arrival of the stealth jets came after previous examples of U.S. air power that included B-52 bombers and B-2 stealth bombers. The F-22 steal jets are normally stationed in Japan at Kadena air force base but flew to a South Korean base for continuing military exercises. Stealth aircraft more easily evade radar tracking.

North and South Korea have technically remained at war for 60 years after the Korean War of 1950 to 1953 finished with an armistice rather than peace treaty.

The Wall Street Journal reported that White House and defense officials said they expected more threats from Pyongyang. The report cited a senior administration official who said that while the White House does take North Korean threats seriously the ?rhetoric? does follow a pattern that ?we have seen for decades.?

It ain't nothing but a heartbreaker
Friend only to the undertaker
It's an enemy to all mankind
The point of war blows my mind
War has caused unrest
Within the younger generation
Induction then destruction
Who wants to die!?!?

China mobilizing troops, jets near Korea

http://freebeacon.com/border-patrol/

China has placed military forces on heightened alert in the northeastern part of the country as tensions mount on the Korean peninsula following recent threats by Pyongyang to attack, U.S. officials said.

Reports from the region reveal the Chinese People?s Liberation Army (PLA) recently increased its military posture in response to the heightened tensions, specifically North Korea?s declaration of a ?state of war? and threats to conduct missile attacks against the United States and South Korea.

According to the officials, the PLA has stepped up military mobilization in the border region with North Korea since mid-March, including troop movements and warplane activity.

China?s navy also conducted live-firing naval drills by warships in the Yellow Sea that were set to end Monday near the Korean peninsula, in apparent support of North Korea, which was angered by ongoing U.S.-South Korean military drills that are set to continue throughout April.

North Korea, meanwhile, is mobilizing missile forces, including road-mobile short- and medium-range missiles, according to officials familiar with satellite imagery of missile bases.
