For the past two month North Korea certainly has been increasing it's threats of war. This has been North Korea's M.O. though, threaten war, test some missiles to try to get concessions out of the US. My Way
SEOUL, South Korea (AP) - North Korea accused President Barack Obama's government of meddling in its internal affairs Wednesday and vowed to take "every necessary measure" to defend itself against what it calls U.S. threats.
The statement by North Korea's Foreign Ministry, however, was far less harsh than rhetoric issued by the country's military during the run-up to joint U.S.-South Korean war games that started across the South on Monday. The North's military has threatened South Korean passenger planes and put its troops on standby.[...]
"The Foreign Ministry is Washington's direct negotiating partner and has not engaged in criticizing the U.S. so far," said Kim Yong-hyun, a professor at Seoul's Dongguk University. "This means they have started expressing pent-up complaints."
However, the ministry's less strident tone than other agencies reflects Pyongyang's willingness for negotiation, Kim said.
