Big Peace:

The South Korean military has deployed multiple rocket launcher systems on two northwestern islands that are near the maritime boundary with North Korea, according to unnamed government sources of the Korea Herald. North Korea launched an artillery attack on one of the islands, Yeonpyeong Island, last November, killing four South Koreans including two civilians.

In addition, the military plans to establish a special military command in June, which is dedicated to protecting the border islands from possible North Korean provocations including amphibious infiltrations by its special warfare troops.

If the North Koreans follow their usual pattern, then they’ll issue a few days worth of hysterical accusations that the South Koreans and the Americans are warmongers, while saying that their own artillery attack on Yeonpyeong Island, as well as the sinking of the warship Cheonan last May, were fully justified.

In fact, and unnamed North Korean force is quoting a top army official as saying, “A tense situation is being created on the Korean Peninsula, where nobody knows when a war could break out,” according to Chosun. This follows reports that leader Kim Jong-il has recently visited “Building No. 3,” in order to plan future provocations with the agency in charge of armed provocations against the South.

This comes at a time when former President Jimmy Carter is leading a delegation of “The Elders” to North Korea, to encourage Pyongyang to engage in a meaningful dialogue with Seoul and to address the country’s food shortage, according to JoongAng.
