NORTH Korea warned today of a "thousand-fold" military retaliation against the US and its allies if provoked.
The warning came hours after United States President Barack Obama declared North Korea a "grave threat" to the world and pledged that new UN sanctions will be aggressively enforced.

Pyongyang claims its nuclear bombs are a deterrent and accuses Washington of plotting with Seoul to topple its secretive regime.

This posturing, paranoid moron who runs NK should be very glad that George Bush is no longer in charge of the US.

It will be interesting to see how President Oba and indeed the rest of the world's political community handle this little pip-squeek in the coming weeks and months.
