North and South Korea ties are thinning anew.

North Korea unleashed propaganda against the South’s recently elected president, Lee Myung-bak (pictured above), calling him a “traitor” and a “US sycophant.” Sycophant, for those who are unfamiliar with the term, is the same as a back scratcher, or a boot licker, or, how do we put this politely… um, a “behind” kisser.

After nearly a decade of peace and reconciliation, the North is suddenly on the attack.

It has been more than ten years since the Bosnian War ended, but the atmosphere in Sarajevo is still the same. The Serbs are not done yet.

Branislav Dukic, leader of the Association of Bosnian Serb War Victims, confirmed that their group plans to build an 85 foot cross on Trebevic Hill this month, in memory of Serb war victims.

During the war, Trebevic Hill was one of the deadliest locations from which the Serbs mercilessly fired artillery on Sarajevo. Today, Trebevic Hill is still Serb territory. Since it is high above ground — which made it the perfect location from which to fire artillery during the siege — it overlooks the Muslim-dominated capital of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
