Rising tensions surrounding the Korea peninsular

Comments on Rowan Callick “Cheonan sinking brings larger spat to surface”, 27/07/2010, http://www.theaustralian.com.au/news/opinion/cheonan-sinking-brings-larger-spat-to-surface/story-e6frg7e6-1225897171800
While many may think it was North Korea that sank the Korean warship based on what the so called international investigation, it is by no means certain that was conclusively the case.

Was the international investigation completely neutral and unbiased? Were there any North Koreans, Chinese or Russians included in that international investigation team, or at least as observers in the investigation?

Why did the Korean government said shortly after the sinking that was quite different from the investigation report's result?

What were the likely motives for the North to do that, should the investigation result be correct?

While we may have no reasons not to believe the investigation result, the Chinese may have every reason to be suspect of it.

There are no short of history that the truth of a significant event was never clear at the time.
