Reckless Racket

So how are the North Koreans reacting to the increased UN and international pressure after accusations of an unprovoked attack on the Cheonan? Not, it has to be said, very well:

A saying goes a club is fit for a mad dog. The army and people of the DPRK will never pardon the group of traitors getting hell-bent on confrontation and war, dare taking issue with fellow countrymen.

We do not know empty talk.

The reckless racket of the puppet forces will lead to a dirge of the traitorous clique.

It almost achieves a kind of poetry.

Well, OK, no it doesn't.

    “…This is an intolerable provocation against the DPRK and an undisguised declaration of a war against it.”
    The nuance here has me somewhat confused:
    1) NK launches an unprovoked attack on a SK naval vessel with loss of many (SK)lives.
    2) NK announces that SK has declared war on NK.
    Now that NK says that a state of war exists, is SK free to retaliate in any way it sees fit?
    I’m speaking of the legal position, not the realpolitik.
    There’s a moral here…
