Breaking News: North Korea Shoots Down South Korean Helicopter

They have been leading the cheers for war, haven't you heard?

Helicopter crashes after fruitless search for victims of S. Korea ferry disaster

Was it another war games accident like Malaysian Flight 370 (debris now in a field in Ukraine) or TWA 800?

Nope, according to the inference in my propaganda pre$$ the North shot it down:

"North Korea fires rockets and artillery" New York Times, July 15, 2014

SEOUL — North Korea fired 100 rockets and artillery shells off its east coast Monday, firing those projectiles within hundreds of yards of the border with South Korea, military officials said.

The projectiles from shoreline artillery and mobile multiple-rocket launchers flew between 2 and 31 miles into the sea between North Korea and Japan, said a spokesman for the South Korean Ministry of National Defense. He spoke on condition of anonymity, citing ministry policy.

Although none of the shells fell south of the maritime border with South Korea, the South Korean coast guard told fishing boats to leave the waters near the borderline as a precaution.

The tests came as a US aircraft carrier arrived in waters near the Korean Peninsula for naval exercises with South Korea and Japan that were scheduled to begin this week.

North Korea often test-fires its artillery, mostly near its disputed western sea border with the South. On Sunday, two ballistic missiles, launched from the southwestern corner of North Korea, flew across the North before landing in the eastern sea.

Could have been a war games accident:

"US-South Korea military exercises get underway" by Choe Sang-Hun | New York Times, July 17, 2014

ABOARD USS GEORGE WASHINGTON — Fighter jets roared off a US aircraft carrier into a gray sky Wednesday as the United States kicked off a joint naval exercise off the west coast of the Korean Peninsula, with the South Korean president, Park Geun-hye, calling for strong punishment if North Korea initiated a military provocation.

Who got to her? Why would she even say something like that? 

WHAT FALSE FLAG is being PREPARED?

The North Korean leader, Kim Jong Un, has raised tensions on the divided peninsula in recent weeks by launching a string of rockets and missiles, including its Scud-type ballistic missiles, even as his government took steps toward a possible thaw in relations, including a recent agreement to send a delegation and cheering squad to the Asian Games in South Korea this fall. 

Of course, the U.S. SHOW of MILITARY MIGHT shouldn't make anyone nervous or anything. Not like we are going to invade or bomb natio.... oh, wait, never mind.

Kim has supervised some of these missile tests, which took place close to the border with the South, according to South Korean officials and the North Korean news media. While some leaders were guessing at his intentions, some South Korean analysts feared that the North might attempt military provocations to raise tensions unless the South relaxed its hardline policy and engaged the North with dialogue and possible economic concessions.

More like they have their fingers crossed praying plea do something, please do something.

Speaking to a group of South Korean military leaders, Park called the North Korean government so unpredictable that it was impossible to foresee its behavior “even an inch ahead.”

Same with Israel.

“If they launch a provocation, I ask you, commanding officers of the military, to retaliate with a strong initial countermeasure,” Park said Wednesday. 

False flag in the works?

She cited international concern that North Korea might attempt another nuclear test.

I'm not concerned.

About 200 nautical miles off the west coast of South Korea, the US aircraft carrier George Washington cruised as F/A-18 Super Hornet fighter jets screamed off the deck.

That concerns me.

Officers on board said that the jets conducted 108 sorties from the USS George Washington Wednesday alone in an exercise that Rear Admiral Mark Montgomery said was designed to bolster the US and South Korean forces’ combined ability to counter provocations from the sea.

Okay, HOW MUCH DID THAT COST AUSTERITY-STRAPPED AMERICAN TAXPAYERS!!!??? 

They DON'T HAVE MONEY for FOOD STAMPS but they HAVE MONEY for GLOBAL-WARMING GREENHOUSE GAS SPEW for MILITARY EXERCISES? 

Obama? Sir?

In recent years, Kim has overseen the landing drills of North Korea’s armed forces, involving hovercraft, plus test-firings of multiple-rocket launchers and artillery amassed near the border with the South.

Now the North is READY to INVADE!!

The US Navy’s five-day joint drill with South Korea involves six US ships, a large number of South Korean navy vessels, and United States and South Korean air force combat aircraft, both in the seas off the east and west coasts of South Korea, said Montgomery, commander of the US Seventh Fleet’s Carrier Strike Group Five operating out of Yokosuka, Japan.

Let us all pray an Israeli Dolphin class submarine doesn't sink one like they tried years ago. 

I doubt they will. Wouldn't want to waste it on the Korean when it would be much more playable against Iran or Russia.
