That is most definitely what it is called. The international version of "playing chicken". If they play their cards right, they could give the Cuban Missile Crisis a run for its money.

A question: why are the North Koreans playing this game of "don't blink" with us instead of the Japanese?
[/QUOTE]North Korea is a little choked about the sanctions placed upon them, hence all the threats and innuendo toward the US. Quite frankly, North Korea scares the beejezus out of me, and is far more of a threat than Iraq.
