South Korea put on a show of force by sending about 20 planes into clouds close to the border with its neighbor in the time between North Korea’s giving recognize of its intention to start and the jet really firing off it on Monday.
Kim claimed that South Korea was using fire, and it cannot be ignored. He also reaffirmed that his nation will do everything in its power to avert a war’s end in Seoul against American imperialists and” their stooges.”
