Kim Jong Il Orders Military to Get Ready for Combat (Update1)

May 25 (Bloomberg) -- North Korean leader Kim Jong Il ordered the country?s military to get ready for combat in a message televised nationwide last week following South Korea?s announcement that North Korea torpedoed the South?s warship.

The message was broadcast on May 20 by O Kuk Ryol, vice chairman of the National Defense Commission, according to the website of North Korea Intellectuals Solidarity, a Seoul-based group run by defectors from the communist country. Yonhap News agency reported on the group?s posting earlier today.

While Kim doesn?t want war, North Korea is ready to counter any attacks from South Korea, O said in the message, according to the group, which cited an unidentified person in the country. North Korea Intellectuals Solidarity is one of the Seoul-based agencies to first report on North Korea?s currency revaluation late last year.

Officials at South Korea?s Defense Ministry weren?t immediately reachable for comment.

The South Korean won declined as much as 4.3 percent to 1,272.45 against the dollar after the Yonhap report.

South Korean defense-related stocks rallied. Speco Co., a military installation parts developer, rose 12 percent to 5,360 won. Victek Co., which makes electronic warfare equipment, surged 7.8 percent to 4,420 won.

South Korea?s President Lee Myung Bak said yesterday the country will push for United Nations censure against North Korea for the March 26 sinking of a naval ship, which killed 46 sailors. A multinational team concluded on May 20 that North Korea fired a torpedo to split apart the 1,200-ton Cheonan.

Tensions are rising in the Korean peninsula following the report, with both sides threatening counter-measures should they come under attack. South Korea plans to define North Korea as its ?main enemy? when it maps out military strategy, Yonhap reported today, citing a government official it didn?t identify.

We still got troops in Iraq?--I thought O promised troops out after a year if elected (right after he closed gitmo)--considering the surge he said wouldn't work--did work--should have been no prob-
-hmmm I wonder how long it would have taken him to retreat :)

Lets see--that 3 major areas -
-troop withdrawel-gitmo-and surge--and Gumby batting 1000--wrong on all counts. :sadwave:

Rush Limbaugh mocks Bill O?Reilly in book
By Christina Wilkie - 05/25/10 06:00 AM ET

In a new biography on sale Tuesday, Rush Limbaugh calls fellow conservative talk show host Bill O?Reilly a ?Ted Baxter? ? after the fictional character on the ?The Mary Tyler Moore Show? who was portrayed as a vain, shallow, buffoonish TV newsman.

?Sorry but somebody?s gotta say it,? Limbaugh is quoted as saying in Rush Limbaugh: An Army of One by Zev Chafets. At press time, O?Reilly had yet to respond to the comment.

But it wasn?t just Bill-O who took grief from Big Rush. Limbaugh said he doesn?t consider any of his fellow conservative talk show hosts to be in his league.

?Sean Hannity and Mark Levin are prot?g?s,? writes Chafets, ?and [Limbaugh] has defended Glenn Beck.?


But Limbaugh ?doesn?t really consider them, or anyone else, in his league.?:scared

Also on Limbaugh?s hit list is CNN?s Larry King, whom Limbaugh ?really doesn?t like.?

?He has never had nice things to say about me,? Limbaugh says about King in the book. ?He was working midnights [on the radio] when I started and demanded that his syndicator move him to afternoon drive when my success was obvious. He bombed and quit radio for CNN exclusively.?


The book also divulges how Limbaugh spends his multimillion-dollar earnings: The radio host owns five houses on an oceanfront estate north of Palm Beach, as well as a garage full of Maybach 57Ss (all black) and a $56 million Gulfstream G550 jet.
:142smilie :scared

Limbaugh?s main home on the estate is 24,000 square feet, while the remaining homes are for guests.:0074

The d?cor includes a massive chandelier just like the one that hangs in the lobby of New York?s Plaza Hotel, as well as a full suit of armor and a ?life-size oil portrait of El Rushbo.?:SIB

And according to Chafets, ?fragrant candles? burn throughout the place. The main guest suite is ?an exact replica of the Presidential Suite of the Hotel George V in Paris.?:142smilie
