North Korea "Threatens" to Destroy South Korea



For the one millionth time North Korea has threatened to destroy South Korea.  Usually they threaten to burn the place down, pave it over or turn it into hell on earth. You know the usual angry dictator rhetoric.  This time rather than having that bombastic over the top TV presenter provide the entertainment they decided to up their game and use the UN as their platform for issuing the threat.


North Korea has threatened South Korea with "final destruction" during a debate at the UN Conference on Disarmament , saying it could take "second and third steps" after a nuclear test last week.
"As the saying goes, a new-born puppy knows no fear of a tiger. South Korea's erratic behaviour would only herald its final destruction," North Korean diplomat Jon Yong Ryong told the meeting.
Without specifically referring to the nuclear test, Jon said North Korea had recently taken a "resolute step for self-defence", which he described as "strong counter-actions to a foreign aggressor".
He added that if the US takes a hostile approach towards North Korea, Pyongyang "would be left with no option but to take the second and third stronger steps in succession".
