Did The North Koreans Torpedo A South Korean Naval Ship On March 26th?
Probably, say the South Koreans, who are still investigating. If an attack doesn’t make sense to you in ordinary strategic terms, then you should consider this: But a retired chief of naval operations said, “In 2002 when the World Cup reached its climax, the North unexpectedly provoked the second battle of Yeonpyeong in the West Sea. The North has done many things that are inexplicable by common sense.” But explicable if you think the regime wants to continue to extort aid from us, and the South Koreans, by showing how much trouble they can cause.
