Midknight Review -- new and revised: North Korea reminds us all that the Korean War never actually ended . . . seriously.

Here are a few of the morning's headlines regarding the Korean Crisis. Last night, N. Korea began firing on the South. Two South Korean soldiers were killed and a number (more than 20) of civilians were injured in the shelling. Since the 1950's, there have been more than 150 such incidents, this being one of the most critical. The shelling comes on the eve of military maneuvers by the South.

The United States has 30,000 troops stationed there.

There is a strategy for the North in this incident. In exchange for "peace," the North will accept aid from whoever . . . the U.S. , China, South Korea. In the coming negotiations, assuming that Obama will try to deal with the problem via some level of talk, North Korea will make certain demands for food, energy and money, the attending world will pay them off and we will all move on.

One of the reasons why Midknight Review is opposed to the nuclear proliferation treatise known as START is that it does not include countries such as China, Iran, India, Pakistan, or N. Korea. It borders on stupid to decrease nuclear weaponry when most of the rest of the world, all enemies of America, are doing just the opposite.

At any rate, here are those headlines:

NKorea's military command vows 'merciless' military strike against SKorea... Fires artillery onto island... South denies seeking redeployment of U.S. tactical nuclear weapons... Returns Fire... May strike NKorea's missile base... 'Intentional, planned attack'... Japan prepares for 'any eventuality'... CHINA WATCHES... WHITE HOUSE CONDEMNS... Russia Sees 'Colossal Danger'... FLASHBACK: UK fears NKorean attack on Seoul G20 summit...

The Stated Nonsense from the Left now includes these Progressive goals:

July 2, 2008, Obama had this to say: "We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded."

MICHELLE OBAMA: "Barack knows that we are going to have to make sacrifices; we are going to have to change our conversation; we're going to have to change our traditions, our history; we're going to have to move into a different place as a nation."

“ . . . . . . they have become a generation of activists possessed with that most American of ideas – that people who love their country can change it.” -- Obama the Radical

On September 30, Van Jones told MSNBC "I think everybody should hold onto your seats. October is going to be the turning point when it comes to the progressive fight back."
