April 23 (UPI) -- North Korea offered the United States and its supercarrier, the USS Carl Vinson, a thinly veiled threat in an op-ed published in state-sponsored newspaper Rodong Sinmun.
"Our revolutionary forces are combat-ready to sink a U.S. nuclear-powered aircraft carrier with a single strike," editorialists wrote in the paper, a mouthpiece for North Korea's ruling Workers' Party.
