The Washington Post is now reporting that the report on the sinking of the Cheonan will blame North Korea.
South Korea reached its conclusion that North Korea was responsible for the attack after investigators from Australia, Britain, Sweden and the United States pieced together portions of the ship at the port of Pyongtaek, 40 miles southwest of Seoul. The Cheonan sank on March 26, following an explosion that rocked the vessel as it sailed in the Yellow Sea off South Korea’s west coast.
The officials, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because South Korea has yet to disclose the findings of the investigation, said that subsequent analysis determined that the torpedo was identical to a North Korean torpedo that had previously been obtained by South Korea.

Analysis. This news is now starting to be reported in the major American media. This may be in preparation for whatever the North Koreans do after the report is released. Stay tuned. This has a long way to go.
