From Yahoo News Canada: A nuclear-capable U.S. B-52 bomber sortie over South Korea has endangered plans for reunions between families from the North and South of the country and risks triggering a further escalation of military tension, North Korea said o
If the B-52 was fully armed, flying towards Pymyang on its way to bombing the fat boy in his Palace that might do more towards the families and the country reunification.

"Jabberwalker" said I liked the message of that Stealth Bomber fly-by in Korea a few months back: "You won't even know we're coming."
The only reason the Norks get away with their histrionics is because China doesn't want a unified Korea on their border. When China eventually collapses then that'll be the end for Lil' Kim.
China knows it could benefit greatly from a unified Korea on its border. They aren't stupid enough to think it won't be followed up with American missiles three feet from that border supposedly to 'defend' against Iranian attacks.
"Public_Domain" said If we were assholes, we'd allow Russians to fly near/in our airspace? I doubt it. I'd bet we'd still freak out because, you know, nationalism.
Hey, the fuckin' Russkies can fly as close as they bloody well want, as long as they remain in their own airspace.
"Public_Domain" said I'm just saying that making the North upset is usually the aim of these war games and shit. Acting surprised when they do get upset just seems weird. What do you expect? You're practicing bombing them with nuclear weapons! Acting like fucking saints after being purposeful dinks is ridiculous.
We get upset when they do it. I see no reason to be surprised that they are upset.
Upset? WTF?? NK is the ONLY one to have actually fired on the other, more than once!! What the hell do they have to be upset about when a B-52 violate their airspace?

Okay, I'll be the devil's advocate for the hermit empire one more time...
If the Russians flew a plane like this near Canadian airspace.....
I seem to recall plenty of freaking the fuck out about a whole lot of nothing when that happened.
Yeah, cuz Canada is a such an unstable country. We routinely threaten our neighbour who happens to be Russia's ally...oh wait.
