I doubt it. Remember that they killed 46 people not too long ago; callous as it sounds, I doubt two more will be the tipping point.You guys think this will lead to something? There's a lot of tension between those countries.

It goes both ways, of course. SK suspects that they killed quite a few members of the DPRK forces; they retaliated with about eighty 155mm Howitzer rounds and air strikes, which would presumably be much more accurate than the DPRK's fire.I doubt it.

Damn, the way I saw his response framed in another article, he was calling for an "enormous retaliation" ... if this happens again. That makes it sound more like Myung-bak is ready to go to war now.Well SK's president is calling for "enormous retaliation".

Methinks South Korea is going to cut all remaining ties with NK, including aid. Kaesong is already shuttered, right?"Reckless attacks on South Korean civilians are not tolerable, especially when South Korea is providing North Korea with humanitarian aid," Lee said, according to Yonhap.
"As for such attacks on civilians, a response beyond the rule of engagement is necessary. Our military should show this through action rather than an administrative response" such as statements or talks, he said.
If SK retaliates and goes to war, what kind of assistance can they expect?
