Tensions Rising in Korea

North Korea criticized South Korea over the moving of a post marker on their common border. Relartions between the two Koreas have been deteriorating dramatically in recent months for a variety of reasons. North Korea has become increasingly defiant and has left the six party talks over its nuclear disarmament. This situation seems to be getting out of hand and war is beginning to appear more and more likely. The North has stated that they would treat the South's joining of an international initiative to ban the sea transit of WMDs as an act of war. Hopefully cooler heads will prevail and another war between the two Koreas can be avoided.
