But don't panic about it. An op-ed in the WSJ points out that since the North Koreans announced in 2003, 2006, and as late as May 26th this year that the Armistice is no longer binding on them, it means it is no longer binding for the UN (US) forces, either.
I doubt we'll see American ships fire on North Korean any time soon, but legally the US is within its rights to do so.
Perhaps North Korea should reconsider its position on the Armistice?
