South Korea tells Russia's ambassador they are prepared to respond with "all measures available".

South Korea has summoned the Russian ambassador, seeking the “immediate withdrawal” of North Korean troops which it says are being trained to fight in Ukraine.

About 1,500 North Korean soldiers, including those from the special forces, have already arrived in Russia, according to Seoul’s spy agency.

In a meeting with the ambassador Georgiy Zinoviev, South Korea’s vice-foreign minister Kim Hong-kyun denounced the move and warned that Seoul will “respond with all measures available”.

    He threatens the US military for overstepping and operating in Australia so they have him removed.

    Now this next part I have several problems with so you may need to clarify.

    Are you saying Palestinians are better off because of Netanyahu? And before you answer I will point you to the death toll, their ever decreasing land and the multiple bombings of refuge camps, hospital and schools. Not to mention the use of palestinians as shields, the raping and the IDF gang like presence, the lock down hours and prevention of anything approaching a two state solution.

    He might not need big bombs, but that doesn’t mean you should defend the provision of such. Taking away a suicidal persons guns wont stop them killing themselves, but it removes an option and makes it a little more difficult.

      Hm, that is interesting. Definitely does fit with American Cold War activities, so I’m inclined to believe it.

      No, the Palestinians are certainly not being helped in any way by Netanyahu. He and his right wing cronies want them all gone, I’m fairly sure. Despite that goal, however, most of the 2 million+ residents of Gaza remain alive. That would probably not be the case at this point, without western leverage being exerted on Netanyahu to restrain him.

      It would actually be easier for him to kill them all if he did not have to maintain alliances. Not harder. If he wants to remain safe vs Hezbollah and Iran, he must preserve most of the Gazan lives, even though he really doesn’t want to.
