North Korea Threatens U.S. Bases in Japan After B-52 Flight 
------------------------------------------------------------


 
North Korea has threatened a new attack on the U.S. military over its
ongoing training drills with South Korea. Earlier today, the North
Korean regime said it could hit U.S. military bases in Japan after the
United States flew nuclear-equipped B-52 bombers. North Korea called the
B-52 flight an "unpardonable provocation." It was the latest in a series
of threats from North Korea following passage of a U.S.-backed Security
Council resolution earlier this month in response to North Korea's most
recent nuclear test.
