Attack on US ambassador to South Korea spotlights pro-North radicalism ( video) - CSMonitor.com: "A knife-wielding South Korean man who attacked US Ambassador Mark Lippert today is a well-known nationalist who previously threw a chunk of concrete at the Japanese ambassador and once tried erect a memorial to former North Korean leader Kim Jong Il in Seoul.
At a breakfast seminar in the South Korean capital, Kim Ki-jong attacked Mr. Lippert with a wooden-handled fruit knife while calling for the unification of North and South Korea. The attack on the ambassador, a rarity in South Korea, a US military ally, took place against the backdrop of annual military exercises between the two nations. "
