    So are the citizens of the DPRK all starving and barely able to lift a finger or strong young soldiers who are swinging the war on their shoulders?

    Are we sure they aren’t pretending to be soldiers, since we know every single person in the DPRK is an actor pretending to be happy.

    The US accuses the legitimate government of Korea of aiding an allied nation, while simultaneously expanding US military operations and naval contracts to produce and repair US weapons in… <checks notes> … the illegitimate, US-occupied, fascist puppet state in the southern half of the same country. Who needs fantasy when reality really is this weird?

    There’s thousands NATO soldiers in Ukraine helping with ammo deliveries, training, equipment, coordination, intelligence, not to mention thousands of actual mercenaries from NATO countries. Yet not once would the Western media say “NATO troops deployed alongside Ukrainian troops in Ukraine”, or admit that all the French, Polish and other foreign military personnel who die in Ukraine were just holidaying in Pokrovsk.

    First it was Iran, then China, and now North Korea is fighting in Ukraine? Really trying to work the whole “axis of evil” in there aren’t they?

    This is doubly effective as it starts the process of manufacturing consent for war on the 3rd front (Middle East, Eastern Europe, Asia).

    North Korea has already recognized the wests push for war as revealed by their statement yesterday.

    Yet those comfortable in the imperial core will continue to insist nothing ever happens.

      The really fun part here is that the US is rapidly burning through their existing stockpiles of ammunition, and they lack the industrial capacity to replenish it at the rate it’s being used now. It seems that the US leadership is not aware of the problem.

            Atomic, Biological, Chemical.

            Though I’m more familiar with that as NBC (N being nuclear), so it’s possible that I’m misinterpreting what REEEEvolution meant.

            The US has huge arsenals of all of these weapons, a shortage of conventional ammunition would be the perfect excuse to use them to defend the “rules based international order”.

              Fingers crossed though, if and when they do launch- the rest of the world must return in kind and 1000x over. The rest of humanity is not defenseless, and if they wish to use such WMDs the US best prepare for MAD and to be eradicated off the face of the planet, this is the deterrence game the US has forced the rest of the world to play and if they want to push their luck they will die by it.

            • Dispite the later 2 being illegal for a country to even posess and the first legal for a contry to posess but illegal to use… so one has to wonder, what rules are there in this “rules based order”?

            Usually it should be NBC which stands for nuclear, biological, chemical.

            I’m guessing here they meant atomic, biological, chemical.

              There’s also “MSNBC” - Mass-Slaughter Nuclear Biological Chemical and “CNN” - “CIA-Nurtured Nazis”
