Korean war `may break out at any moment`: North Korea

Geneva: A North Korean diplomat said on Thursday that tensions on the Korean peninsula were running so high over the sinking of a South Korean warship that "war may break out at any moment."

In a speech to the international Conference on Disarmament, Ri Jang-Gon, deputy permanent representative for North Korea at the United Nations in Geneva, blamed the "grave situation" on South Korea and the United States.

"The present situation of the Korean peninsula is so grave that a war may break out at any moment," he said.

However, North Korea needed a "peaceful environment" for its progress, he added.

world war 3 is not very far away. the terrorist attacks in mumbai, attempted terrorism in ny, terrorist attacks by maoists across india, turkey`s charitable organisations with terrorist links getting into a conflict with israel, north and south korean conflict, iran`s pursuit of nuclear arms for malafide reasons with turkey`s covert support are all factors one must consider. if we read history, world wars 1 and 2 had similar incidents leading up to them. so, be prepared.
