North Korea has put its military on a 'battle-ready' status with strategic rocket units ordered to prepare for possible strikes against the US mainland, Hawaii and Guam according to the country's state media.

"The Korea People's Army top command declares that all artillery troops including strategic rocket units and long-range artillery units are to be placed under class-A combat readiness," the Korean Central News Agency said.

The announcement came as images were released showing a new round of military exercises by the isolated state.

The still photographs show what appears to be sea-borne assault using hovercraft and an artillery drill using multiple rocket launchers.

North Korean leader, Kim Jong Un, is pictured visiting troops and watching the exercise from a vantage point above the unidentified beach on the country's east coast.

The photographs, released by KCNA, are accompanied by language which matches weeks of rhetoric.

According to the news agency, Kim Jong Un "stressed the need to destroy and wipe away any enemy who lands on their coast through strong firepower and ordered the soldiers of the heroic Korean People's Army to display their mettle in the great war against the enemies".

"Crazy like wild wolves threatened with fire, send all of them to the bottom of the sea," Kim is quoted as saying.

FFS. I think it's time the West tell China to sort NK out or the west/US is going to nuke the NK fuckers on a day when the wind is blowing to the west. Seriously, either China uses it's influence to end this shit, or we are going to have to invade these cunts.

I'm available 24/7 for military/foreign affairs advice.

"Stealth bomber diplomacy" to be exact.

North Korea 'readies rocket force' after US stealth flights

North Korea says it has put missile units on stand-by to attack US targets in response to US stealth bomber flights over the Korean peninsula.

State news agency KCNA said leader Kim Jong-un signed off on the order at a late-night meeting of top generals.

The time had come to "settle accounts" with the US, KCNA quoted him as saying, with the B-2 flights an "ultimatum".

Pyongyang has been angered by fresh UN sanctions and annual US-South Korea military drills.

Kim Jong-un "finally signed the plan on technical preparations of strategic rockets of the KPA, ordering them to be stand-by for fire so that they may strike any time", the KCNA report said.

"If they make a reckless provocation with huge strategic forces, the Korean People's Army (KPA) should mercilessly strike the US mainland, their stronghold, their military bases in the operational theatres in the Pacific, including Hawaii and Guam, and those in South Korea," the agency quoted him as saying.

I pardon you beg, but it's quite possible to nuke a naked nun on the run, save for the occasional pun and the inevitable gun debate.

An ultimatum says you will do this by this time or this will happen. Flying over non-NK territory without comment doesn't count as an ultimatum. Just a threat.

Yes, but you can't reason with a guy holed up and waving a rifle.
