growing public criticism (1) after a deadly
North Korean attack, South Korean President
Lee Myung-bak (2) accepted the resignation
of his
defense minister (3) on Thursday and announced changes in the military’s rules of
engagement to make it easier for South Korea to strike back with greater force, especially
if civilians are threatened.
The government also announced plans to increase the number of troops and heavy
weapons on Yeonpyeong Island（延坪島）, where two marines and two civilians died
Tuesday in an artillery fusillade (4) from the North. On Friday, President Lee initially put
forward a security adviser, Lee Hee-won, as the new defense minister. But the government
later pulled back on (5) that announcement.
But Mr. Lee, who came to office (6) two years ago vowing to get tough with (7) the
North, has little maneuvering room in formulating a response. While the attack appears to
have pushed anti-North Korean sentiment (8) here to its highest level in years, there is
little public support (9) for taking military action against the North that might lead to an
escalation of hostilities (10).
