"North Korea shows no signs of relenting in pursuit of its nuclear capabilities, and I'm not convinced that they won't provoke again," Admiral Mike Mullen, chairman of the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff, told reporters during a visit to the South.
Mullen attended the change of command of about 30,000 U.S. troops stationed in the South to General James Thurman from outgoing commander General Walter Sharp.
Mullen, who was in Beijing earlier, said that Chinese military leaders agreed it was important to maintain stability in North Korea. Most experts and officials believe the North Korean regime is not at risk of collapse.
"We have a sense of urgency to essentially work on planning to deter the North from further provocations. Whether they will be deterred or not, that's to be seen."
Mullins is suppose to be stepping-down. Should he be out there making these remarks? He states we have a sense of urgency. to essentially start planning. Uhm, shouldn't we have been planning on trying to deter N. Korea already? Should plans have been put in place. Are we just attempting to Sabre rattle tha North once again? Thoughts?

Well Mullins is a Republican.....still he is stepping down. I can understand the sabre rattling to try and keep N. Korea in some sort of check. As opposed to not saying Anything. But South Korea has no problems antagonizing things as well.
