We have always tolerated North Korea's brutality, time and again, We did so because we have always had a genuine longing for peace on the Korean Peninsula. But now things are different.

North Korea will pay a price corresponding to its provocative acts, I will continue to take stern measures to hold the North accountable.

Specifically, we endorse President Lee's demand that North Korea immediately apologize and punish those responsible for the attack, and, most importantly, stop its belligerent and threatening behavior.

U.S. support for South Korea's defense is unequivocal, and the President has directed his military commanders to coordinate closely with their Republic of Korea counterparts to ensure readiness and to deter future aggression.

well if we actually make the weapons in the US, that we could sell to the south would it help the economy...lol.... just as long as we don't send any troops over there... of course, the south will probably start to lose or the north will get pissed at us for weapons support and then.... BOOM! WW3.... uuuggghhh.... it would be nice to just play in our little box and tell everyone else to f-off...

Where does Russia stand on this?

This would be like knocking Korea up and ditching out, only to have to pay child support.
