I got yer "psychological warfare" right here, Scooter

It seems that the Godless Commies in North Korea are all butt hurt about the traditional Christmas lights set up near the DMZ:

North Korea has warned South Korea of "unexpected consequences" if it lights up a Christmas tree-shaped tower near their tense border.
The North's state-run Uriminjokkiri website said it would amount to a form of "psychological warfare".

Seoul's annual tradition of lighting up a Christmas tree tower was suspended in 2003 following a warming of ties.

However, the South lit a tower last year as relations deteriorated between the neighbours.

The Associated Press quotes a defence ministry official as saying the South has agreed to allow Christian groups to light a further two towers this year.
A word to the NorKs: don't be douchebags to your neighbors, and maybe you'll get more cooperation from them.  And oh by the way, what the South Koreans are doing isn't escalation.  This is escalation:

Everything is a provocation to the Norks. The very existence of the South is a provocation. Putting the tree up is a provocation; so is not putting it up. The South should go ahead and do whatever they want to do, since the North is going to holler war no matter what.
