World May Soon Face Beginning of Holy War - Pravda.Ru: "The USA and South Korea launched a massive military exercise in the Sea of Japan on July 25. The large-scale event, which has obviously raised serious indignation of North Korea, will last through July 28.
The exercise was supposed to start on June 8, but was then delayed because the UN Security Council was supposed to consider the resolution about the sinking of the South Korean Cheonan warship in the beginning of July. A group of Western experts, whom South Korea hired to investigate the incident, concluded that the ship had sunk as a result of torpedo attack.
Several countries, Russia and China, first and foremost, had their own questions to the results of the international investigation. As a result, the resolution of the UN Security Council passed on July 9 contained no indication of North Korea's implication in the tragedy.
The preparations to the drills continued after the UN session. US and South Korean officials did not conceal the fact that the drills were going to be a response to the tragedy with the sunken warship. Politicians and defense officials of the two states said that the drills would be held to train a response to North Korea's possible attack on South Korea.
