| [Kyodo: Korea] The U.S. Navy is monitoring a North Korean ship at sea under new U.N. sanctions that bar Pyongyang from exporting missile and nuclear-related items, Reuters news agency reported Thursday, citing U.S. officials. The vessel, called Kang Nam, is based in North Korea and became ""a subject of interest"" after leaving a North Korean port on Wednesday, the officials were quoted as saying. |

| #3 If a Nork missile landed in Hanauma Bay Barry would do absolutely nothing. Gibbs would simply say...... "it landed harmlessly in the ocean." My guess is China has already issued guidance it's to the administration. |

| #2 "The Media" has no idea how Marines are Army troops are trained, otherwise they would understand that the TROOPS aren't "over-dependent" on anything but their weapons. Many Marines are quite capable of inflicting heavy casualties with little more than a K-bar and some heavy cord. Maybe "the media" should go through Paris Island before they're allowed to comment on Marines. |
