North Korea warns it will bomb South Korea if it goes ahead with military drills on Yeonpyeong

NORTH Korea yesterday vowed to bomb South Korea if it goes ahead with a fresh wave of artillery drills.

And it warned the ferocity of the strikes “will be more serious” than November’s attacks on Yeonpyeong island which killed four people.

I understood these drills to begin on Friday.  My mistake.  They take place Saturday through Tuesday, and should begin shortly or currently be in progress. 

As a cliched movie fantasy, I see North and South Korea as two intensely handsome criminals, standing in a crowded restaurant pointing automatic weapons at each other, both sweating profusely.  No one is speaking out, but everyone involved waits for someone, anyone to say "All right:  Everybody be cool..  Everybody breathe.."  While outside, two other groups prepare for the restaurant's destruction.
