North Korea warns foreigners to leave south

http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/world/north-korea-warns-foreigners-to-leave-south/article10930720/

The Korea Asia-Pacific Commitee was quoted saying that they ask that foreigners to evacuate South Korea to avoid being dragged into a "thermonuclear war". However Pyongyang has yet to show any signs of preparing it's 1.2 million man army. The South has simply shrugged off this threat just like they did previous ones. Traffic and Offices operated as usual, and schools catering to foreign students continued without interruption. It has been obvious that the North is nothing but harsh words. The saying "It's bark is worse than it's bite" comes to mind. This is not the North's first threat to the rest of the world and they have been quoted saying that they: "will turn Washington D.C. into a sea of fire". The west responded similarly to South Korea by not caring.

In my opinion, North Korea is all talk and have no real plans of launching any nuclear weapons in the near future.I do not know if they are so secluded from the rest of the world that they think that if they start global thermonuclear war that they have a snowball's chance in hell at surviving. Either that or they have no plans what so ever and are just releasing their anger in terror threats.
