North Korea blasts propaganda audio into South!

[garyoak99]

North Korea blared propaganda audio messages across the border into South Korea on Monday -- the same day Seoul started military exercises with the United States and other countries.

Hours before, the North had threatened to "retaliate against the U.S. with tremendous muscle" if it did not cancel the military exercises.

The exercises, spearheaded by the U.S. and South Korea, started Monday as planned, with both nations' militaries describing them as an annual effort to improve readiness and ensure stability on the Korean Peninsula.

As far as North Korea's retaliation goes, it appeared to be in the form of propaganda messages against South Korea, a major U.S. ally in the region.

It blasted the messages into South Korea using loudspeakers, the South's Defense Ministry said, in the latest tensions between the two nations.

I think all this posturing happens every year when the U.S. and S.Korea play their war games. N.Korea take the opportunity to do a lot of shouting so that, when the games end, the N.Korean government can tell their people how bravely they fended off an attempted invasion from the eternal foe.
