Well, who knows what is behind it, again, like Cheonon story that even 66% South Koreans refused to buy. I’d feel no surprise if it’d be proven one day that the sunk ship only serve as a farce for Obummer’s big agenda on Asia, as another Tonkin, or Maine, or I’d be polite enough not to call it as Reichstag Fire 1933.
