| North Korean Migs Playing Footsie with U.S. Recon Aircraft |

| Dow Jones News Services Via Drudge: Military sources say as many as four North Korean MiGs intercepted a U.S. reconnaissance plane over international waters during the weekend, MSNBC reported Monday. Better start escorting those missions. According to the sources, the MiGs came within 500 feet of the U.S. RC-135 plane but didn't act aggressively, MSNBC said. Hopefully, the Pentagon won't react with it's usual, "They wouldn't dare!" attitude. The network said the incident — the first such intercept since 1969 — happened in international air space over the Korean peninsula. For the historicly minded, January of '68 was when the U.S.S. Pueblo was shot-up, boarded, and captured. |
