North Korea Continues to Deny Responsibility for Deadly Cheonan Attack

This has to continue to be infuriating for the families of the deceased sailors killed by this attack:

North Korea has again denied its involvement in a torpedo attack of the South’s Cheonan frigate in 2010, expressing discomfort over Seoul repeatedly laying responsibility on Pyongyang.

The regime has for years claimed no responsibility for the tragic incident that left 46 South Korean sailors dead. But the latest in a series of verbal conflicts came on Monday when Kim Yong-chol, vice chairman of the regime’s ruling Workers’ Party’s Central Committee, sarcastically vented his anger about the incident.

In a recent meeting with South Korean journalists, Kim introduced himself as “the man who the South claims masterminded the attack.”

A group of South Korean musicians visited the North for three days beginning Sunday in a move to enhance a festive and reconciliatory inter-Korean mood ahead of the planned summit between President Moon Jae-in and North Korean leader Kim Jong-un later this month.

The remark came about a month after the ranking North Korean official visited Seoul on the sidelines of the PyeongChang Winter Olympics. At that time, South Korean activists and opposition parties denounced President Moon for allowing the alleged “Cheonan culprit” to visit the South.  [Korea Times]

That’s because the ROK government itself believes the former Conservative government helped by the US, were the one who made up this event. Watch the government funded KBS TV station and their propaganda documentary that aired recently.

Moon even thinks it was a LMB setup. This country is hopeless.

It’s too late for that.

There are no more political answers. The only thing that might save Korea is to actually repent a la 2 Chronicles 7:14. But it might be too late for that, too.

Meanwhile, the US is not far behind thrm.

Too many people worshipping stuff God created instead of worshipping God Himsrlf.

Well, it’s in the book. Can’t say we weren’t warned.

We chose… poorly…
