– “North Korea urges foreigners to vacate South Korea, says nuclear war imminent”
“The North’s latest warning, issued by its Asia-Pacific Peace Committee, urged foreign companies and tourists to leave South Korea.

‘The situation on the Korean Peninsula is inching close to a thermonuclear war due to the evermore undisguised hostile actions of the United States and the South Korean puppet warmongers and their moves for a war against’ North Korea, the committee said in a statement carried by state media on Tuesday.

There was no sign of an exodus of foreign companies or tourists from South Korea.

White House spokesman Jay Carney called the statement ‘more unhelpful rhetoric.’

‘It is unhelpful, it is concerning, it is provocative,’ he said.

The warning appeared to be an attempt to scare foreigners into pressing their governments to pressure Washington and Seoul to act to avert a conflict.

Analysts see a direct attack on Seoul as extremely unlikely, and there are no overt signs that North Korea’s army is readying for war, let alone a nuclear one.

North Korea has been girding for a showdown with the U.S. and South Korea, its wartime foes, for months. The Korean War ended in 1953 with an armistice, not a peace treaty, leaving the peninsula still technically at war,” quoting the AP in the Washington Post.

– Ramtha addressed this issue in April 2012
“These are general prophesies. You see, this is exciting for you. It is living on the edge. Am I saying anything about Yelm? Oh, there are things to say about this place. I told you we would prevent the nuclear test on South Korea — not after it happened, before it happened. Don’t you like how that went? We are just getting warmed up. You haven’t seen our best work yet.”
