    Their war against the ocean and dolphin kind continues. Cause they can’t seriously think they can attack South Korea and survive.

    How is this different from how North Korea has acted for the past generation? The country will threaten war all the time because resistance to the USA is part of the country’s core identity.

    They’ll threaten and step up rhetoric, but they won’t actually start a war.

    So what happens if north Korea launches a war? Do countries still send them food? If no, how do they expect to feed their troops?

    In light of recent events, the hermit kingdom of North Korea has made it abundantly clear that they are ready for all-out war. With their undying commitment to advancing their military capabilities, let us take a closer look at the preparations they have undertaken in order to wage war against their adversaries.

    First off, North Korea has announced that they have successfully upgraded their nuclear arsenal by adding a few more sticks of dynamite to their stash. This massive increase in firepower is sure to send shivers down the spines of their enemies. Additionally, they have recently manufactured an armada of wooden boats painted in bright red hues as a show of force against South Korea.

    Next, in preparation for the impending conflict, Kim Jong Un has personally led his troops through rigorous combat training sessions consisting of jumping over puddles and marching over hills while carrying large sacks of rice on their backs. This physical prowess is a testament to their unrelenting will to conquer any foe. Furthermore, the country’s pilots have been tasked with mastering the art of steering their aircraft by merely flapping their arms manically.

    When it comes to cyber warfare, North Korea has invested in state-of-the-art technology – namely dial-up internet connections. As soon as the order for launching cyber attacks is given, their army of hackers will immediately start working on cracking the password ‘123456’. To keep their troops well fed during this time of crisis, they have also enlisted the help of resident farmers who plan on growing enough corn to last them a century.

    Lastly, key ally China may indeed be powerless to stop North Korea from going to war. However, they are still ready to provide crucial support in the form of loans. While these monetary contributions won’t directly contribute to their military capabilities, it does ensure that North Korea can continue to live up to its reputation as one of the most materially impoverished nations on Earth.

    In conclusion, North Korea’s preparations for war leave no stone unturned. From building wooden boats to learning how to jump over puddles, they have left nothing to chance. With allies like China around, there’s no doubt that North Korea stands poised to win the battle against modernity, prosperity, and peace.

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    Pyongyang said the latter test, on Jan. 19, was in response to the largest-ever joint military drills by the U.S., South Korea and Japan, which those countries argue are necessary to maintain readiness in the face of North Korean threats.

    Thomas Schafter, a former German ambassador to North Korea, wrote last week that Pyongyang’s increased aggression is likely preparation for a potential second Trump administration in the U.S., setting the stage to de-escalate next year and secure concessions from Washington.

    During Donald Trump’s first term, he held three historic summits with Mr. Kim, and the two Koreas also moved toward rapprochement, though nothing concrete was achieved and that progress has unravelled since the changes of administration in both Washington and Seoul.

    Pranay Vaddi, the White House’s senior director for arms control, recently warned that the security threat from North Korea could “drastically” change over the coming decade as a result of increased co-operation with Russia.

    Chinese state media have largely blamed the recent increase in tensions on Seoul, pointing to President Yoon Suk Yeol’s hardline policy toward North Korea and greater military co-operation with Japan and the U.S.

    During a previous round of escalation at the start of the Trump administration, some Chinese military analysts suggested Beijing would not be obliged to defend its ally if North Korea used nuclear weapons, as this would breach a treaty between the two countries.

      The American empire may be falling but it has nothing to do with North Korea. NK stands no chance if they try to invade anywhere unless they drop nukes

        NK dropping nukes can only end one way for NK. It’s just a question of how much they can take with them first.

    Shitlib rag. This should be removed. Libs get to show you their true horrid imagination when their terrorist spies can’t infiltrate another country.

    Moving away reunifcation was inevitable with Fail Korea, the capitalist US puppet shithole of East Asia.
