N. Korea's Kim Jong-Un Slams 'rabid dogs' after Obama comments

North Korean leader Kim Jong-Un said Pyongyang would not sit idly by "with rabid dogs barking" after US President Barack Obama comments  that the regime was doomed, state media reported Saturday

Kim made the remarks while overseeing a joint naval and air force drill simulating an attack on a US carrier strike group off South Korea, the Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) said.

It did not give details of the venue and date of the war games, which were believed to have taken place on Friday.

"He solemnly declared that we have no willingness to sit any longer with the rabid dogs openly barking that they will bring down by the method of bringing about 'changes' the socialist system, the cradle which our people consider dearer than their own lives", KCNA said.

Kim said North Korea was ready to counter "any war including a war by conventional armed forces and a nuclear war".
