And then they ooops! accidentally lobbed a few bombs over into the North. The north lobbed a few bombs back onto a military installation. The US and SK scream hysterically at this and the mainstream media only has the US and SK version of events. Death toll in the North is higher than the south but that is not reported. US is bringing even more killing machines to the area. No doubt they are desperate for a major distraction from all the shit going down, Wikileaks, banks, TSA, Eurozone, Pipelineistan. If they can drag China into something and upset their economy all the better.

This article by investigative reporter Tanaka Sakai reveals that a US atomic submarine was also sunk at the time of the Cheonan incident, pointing to the possibility of friendly fire between the two vessels.

"But around the time of this incident another sinking occurred that has hardly been reported in Japan. Near the site of the sinking of the Cheonan, a colossal object, which appears to be a US submarine, was found to have sunk. An ROK underwater team searched for, and on April 7 South Korea’s KBS TV showed, a US helicopter carrying what seems to be the body of a US soldier. KBS is a public broadcasting station with the highest credibility in South Korea."

"ROK and US authorities did their best to hide the fact that a US submarine sank at about the same time as the Cheonan.... On the day of the incident, the exercise was underway. After the incident, the US-ROK authorities made no mention of the fact that the joint military exercise was in progress. But the day after the incident, various ROK media and newspapers reported that the Cheonan might have been sunk by friendly fire during the military exercise."
