Thank you my brother. This is the pretext they intend to use to invade North Korea prolly with this caption - "Liberating North Korea From The Shackles of The Beast"

Anyone who still does not know how Amerika spins her propaganda really needs to go back to school. I won't be surprised if all those pictures you see above were staged by the South Koreans (with the help of the CIA) just to portray North Korea in bad light. Amerika has done worse things than this and will not hesitate to do it again.

If you know all the atrocities committed by Amerika & her allies in Iraq - in the guise of fighting terror, you will never read or believe a word coming out of her MSM again.

The Amerikan & the British bastards would dress like Arabs - and then go on a shooting or bombing spree in Bagdad while blaming it on Al-Qaeda until they were caught by the locals.

But..... You know what? I wish Amerika can even attempt the invasion on North Korea. This is 2018, and not 2003 or 2011 - Bastards!

America should its face. SK and NK are getting along.

Even trump has accepted to meet Kim jung un.

This propaganda won't sell. As if we don't have hungry and homeless people in the US .

Still fine pass 9ja

I don't believe in western media, it's just a propaganda.

DPRK agriculture get problems...and lots of it.

1.All farming is owned by the State...so farmers cannot sell their products for a profit....which reduces incentive to produce (To put it simply...if you were a farmer..and the Nigerian govt took away 90% of your harvest...and left you with ten percent...you won't feel like producing much next year).

2.Rice is the main crop, not corn.

3.In fairness to NK....the land is mostly mountainous, and rugged. There isn't enough good farmland. But one can say the same of Japan...yet Japan is self sufficient in food production, because farmers are allowed to make a profit...

4.The leaders loot. And build nice palaces all over the place....and send their kids abroad....

5.Back when there was a Communist world...NK got lots of materials and machinery from fellow communist states to build fertilizer plants...which they used to fertilize their crops. When communism fell in most parts of the world...all the countries wanted cash upfront before they could sell machinery to NK..which NK did not have because state run economies don't make money at all.

6.Then don't get started about bad farming practices like terracing...which worsened an already bad situation.(but they kept on doing it...because the Dear leader had instructed them to do it.).

By 1998...NK was dependent on food aid from many countries...the US inclusive.

And yes...they have ballistic missiles...because of the 'military first ' policy of their govt, first enunciated by the Dear leader Kim Jong Il in 1994/5. In practice...all available funds are diverted to military based industries.

(Most o the DPRK's military manufacturing capability was built partly by outsiders...its nuclear plant was built by the USSR for example)

Have you read about North Korea from other non biased media or you simply got all your information from western media?

Ordinary Nigerian that reads too much for his own good.

NO. You are a Nigerian who reads too much western propaganda from CNN and thinks he knows about international politics and diplomacy.
North Korea almost failed because of years of sanctions but it seems the table is now turning against the US as no one takes their words so serious anymore including their media which their president Trump refers to as 'Fake News'.
Go and read about what transpired during the winter Olympics opening ceromony in Pyeongchang where US tried to isolate the North Korean delegation but the US Vice President ended up embarrassing his host by not standing up for the countrys anthem and to greet its unified team.

During the closing ceremony US decided to send Trumps daughter Ivanka to do damage control as the South Koreans were already pissed off and are opening up more to the DPRK. Left in the lurch Trump has no choice but to agree to a meeting with DPRK leaders in May.
Now the western media which is angry over this recent overtures decided to go on a campaign of demonization ala Libya, Iraq, Syria etc with few pictures that DPRK dont want 'you' to see and people like you fell for it woefully. Nonsense!

I'll do you one better...I have read writers like Lankov,Ehenerich, etc....who have visited the DPRK, interviewed a lot of former DPRK residents, World Food Programme workers in the country, etc.

And as I alluded to in my comment...the DPRK got the less fertile land...it was the SK that got the fertile land.

Plus, state run farming always leads to shortage...not because the govt policy is wrong , but because people like to make profits...and state controlled farming does not give them that chance.(That is a lesson the USSR learned the hard way...)

Like I said...the DPRK should look at what China is doing and follow suit. China is not under the thumb of the US...

Good question

1.The DPRK wants to reunify with the ROK...by force of arms. To them, it is basically 'liberating the ROK from American imperialisim'. The ROK on the other hand...don't want to be ruled by the DPRK...whose leadership remids them of some of their worst dictators (eg Park Chung hee...and Chu Doo Hwan -latter responsible for the massacare of several dozens of students in 1979).

2.The cost of reunificaiton is high..and the ROK knows that they will be paying for it...however unification comes...so they don't really (despite what some of their leaders say) want to be unifed with the DPRK (Many West Germans complain about how they had to pay for German reunification even now).

3.US troops are there to protect US interests...and also to prevent South Korea...and ....pay attention...Japan from developing huge military industrial power-bases that might raise tensions in the area.(US has a base in Okinawa,Japan...and has operational command over SK troops).

4.And even if the US was not there...SK has a good sized military weapons industry....and their defense budget alone is four times that of the DPRK's entire budget. If war should break out...ROK will beat DPRK by a wide margin(though Seoul will be decimated by a huge artillery blast).

5.According to a leaked diplomatic document.from 2008 via Wikileaks...a Chinese diplomat told his US opposite number that if US troops are removed from the Korean Peninsula...they the Chinese will in turn oust the Kims and guarantee a unified Korea under South Korean rule.(tho that is at variance with official Chinese policy).

6.DPRK can be as strong as ROK...if they do what the Chinese did and liberalised their economy.

Its people like you that thinks that Afghanistan was defeated by RAMBO after watching Hollywood movies thinking you know international financial system

In response



The DPRK should follw China's example, Vietnam's example.

Good morning....not everything is propaganda. And by the way, I am not too pro-USA. The US is also damaged goods in my opinion.

FYI...I opposed the invasion of Afgnaistan and Iraq....if you must know. I was not too supportive of Libya's invasion either...and I am not a ghadaffi fan.
