War Rhetoric Rises Between Koreas: "North and South Korea have increased their rhetoric against one another as the South conducted more military exercises.
North Korea said Thursday it is ready to use its nuclear deterrent in what it called a 'sacred war' if it is provoked. Armed forces minister Kim Yong Chun was quoted by the North Korean news agency as saying that South Korea was deliberately pushing the situation to the brink of war.
South Korean President Lee Myung-bak visited with soldiers at a base near the border Thursday, saying the South should answer any new attack from the North with a powerful counter-attack. Lee said he had been mistaken to think patience can bring peace to the Korean peninsula."
