North Korea Unhappy with Global Hawk Aerial Surveillance
|If North Korea quit making threats and provocations there wouldn’t be a need to conduct aerial surveillance of their country:
North Korea on Saturday accused South Korea and the United States of heightening tensions on the Korean Peninsula with aerial reconnaissance activities.
In a commentary carried by the Korean Central News Agency, the North said that Seoul and Washington have been stepping up their “spying activities” this month, calling such a move a “stern provocation” against the country.
The North claimed the countries attempted to secure information on the North’s inner regions by conducting surveillance activities with the U.S. RC-135 Combat Sent and RC-135W Rivet Joint and South Korea’s advanced high-altitude unmanned aircraft Global Hawk and E-737 Peace Eye early warning aircraft.
The North said it is closely monitoring such military activities and threatened that it is ready to destroy its enemies anytime.

So what are they waiting for? On 15 April, 1969 a North Korean MiG-21 shot down an EC-121 over the Sea of Japan, killing 31 Americans. There are allegations a North Korean SAM was fired at an SR-71. King Kim the 3rd can probably get all the missiles he needs from Sugar Daddy Putin and Winnie the Pooh.
