   South Korean President Lee Myung-back vowed retaliation against any further provocation by the North after it attacked an island last week as anger grew at the government's weak response. Lee made his first address to the nation since Tuesday's attack as U.S. and South Korean warships took part in military maneuvers, prompting concern in regional power China and threats of all-out war from North Korea. He also visited U.S. forces in Korea to thank them for the show of force. "North Korea will pay the price in the event of further provocations," Lee said. "Attacking civilians militarily is an inhumane crime that is strictly forbidden in a time of war... Now is the time to show action, not a hundred words."
