I agree lunch. Conspiracy theories and the like can flow from discussions like this but let's take it for what it is. NK are picking and poking until they get their fight. SK lost a ship and 46 sailors and didn't respond. Then they get shelled and didn't respond. So they schedule firing practice in their own territory (I don't blame them) and NK says if you do that we'll smash you. So do you take a stand, or do you do nothing and wait for more shells to come in. I'm sure the US and UN are doing everything to restrain SK, but how can anyone blame them for taking a stand and protecting their citizens from psychopaths. Would we allow an Australian ship to be sunk and Tassy to get shelled? SK are justified attacking NK on those acts alone in my opinion and are showing great restraint.
