SEOUL, South Korea - The Korean War ended 50 years ago, yet tensions
remain high amid suspicion that North Korea (news - web sites) is
developing nuclear weapons. In a reminder of uneasiness along the world's
most heavily armed border, the communist country Saturday warned of a
new war.

The warning came ahead of the 50th anniversary
Sunday of the armistice that ended the 1950-53
armed conflict on the world's last remaining Cold
War frontier.

"The arrogant and outrageous moves of the U.S.
imperialists to stifle the DPRK by force are being
carried into extremes," North Korea's army Chief
of the General Staff Kim Yong Chun said.

North Korea "will promptly beat back any precision strike, surgical
operation-style strike and pre-emptive nuclear attack with the powerful war
deterrent force," Kim said.

U.S. officials believe North Korea already has one or two nuclear bombs,
and has programs that can build several more atomic bombs within in a
matter of months.

The United States and its allies want North Korea to end such programs.

Pyongyang, however, accuses Washington of inciting the dispute to use as
an excuse for an invasion. Washington wants a diplomatic solution, but has
not ruled out military options.

"A diplomatic solution is imperative," said United Nations (news - web sites)
Secretary-General Kofi Annan (news - web sites) in a statement released
Saturday to mark the upcoming anniversary. "It is also a realistic
possibility."

Korean War veterans echoed the U.N. chief's hopes for a peaceful resolution
to avoid another war on the divided Korean Peninsula.

"Pray to God it doesn't happen again," said Benjamin Whitchurch, a British
war veteran. "Because the war as we knew it in the 50s has advanced so
many times with all the different destruction bombs ... it would be an
annihilation."

Whitchurch and about 70 other British veterans attended a commemorative
ceremony at a former battlefield in South Korea (news - web sites) near the
mine-laden border with North Korea. Britain fought as a member of the
16-nation U.N. force against China- and Soviet-backed North Korea.

Hopes of talks to deal with the North Korean nuclear crisis have been rising
in South Korea in recent weeks. South Korean officials have expressed
optimism that the United States, North Korea and China will meet in Beijing
soon, possibly next month, to discuss the nuclear standoff.

The United States considers North Korea's nuclear ambitions a regional
threat and insists on multilateral talks involving South Korea, Japan, China
and possibly Russia.

North Korea wants a one-on-one meeting with the United States.

A Japanese newspaper reported Saturday that North Korea has threatened
to conduct a nuclear test if the United States does not respond positively in
their dialogue to resolve the dispute.

The warning was given during unofficial contacts between a North Korean
official and U.S. envoy Jack Pritchard in New York earlier this month, the
Asahi Shimbun newspaper reported, quoting unidentified Japanese and
North Korean sources.

The nuclear dispute flared in October, when U.S. officials said North Korea
admitted having a secret nuclear program in violation of international
agreements.

I wonder if Bush realizes that defacing an American flag is illegal.

I wonder if he even realizes he's defacing it.

I wonder if he realizes . . . anything.
