North Korea fires intercontinental ballistic missile after threatening US
The launch comes after Pyongyang accused the US military of repeated air incursions.
Just North Korean doing North Korean things.
One of these days he is going to hit something during one of his little tirades. Reminds me of a kid who needs attention every few months.
I don't understand his thinking. The US and other major countries fire off missiles just to shoot them down as target practice all the time. Not to mention that attacking a UN country would be suicide.
Pyongyang's launch comes after it threatened retaliation against what it said were recent US spy plane incursions over its territory
It also tried to launch a spy satellite in May which failed.
This is why I can't take them seriously 🙄
Heh
I am never being let into North Korea
I don't understand what his endgame is. If one of these remarkably hits US territory, how does he hope to win?
I don’t really understand how North Korea continues to exist. I guess they aren’t sanctioned hard enough? I guess it’s hard to get in spies? I guess it’s hard to remove Kim? They seem so weak, but they keep slowly developing into some weird sort of threat.
They’re kept afloat by China, basically. Chaos in NK has the potential to spill over the Yalu and cause problems in China.Plus, Seoul is within artillery range of the DMZ, so any “kinetic” end to the regime is quite risky.
It's just not worth it for anyone to do anything.
N.Korea is essentially used as slave labour by China, and is propped up by them in return.
Look up "bureau 39". They have installed a nice cash flow institute, that goes around the sanctions.
People want to live, they will live.
The sanctions on the DPRK are enough of a crime and yet the collective west still pushes the country to see how far they can go with bullying them. The sanctions ought to end now, so that the people of the DPRK get access to resources they need most for a better life. But the constant scare mongering just continues, as the small nation struggles for it's right to exist against the genocidal American regime.
It's an absolutist monarchy with communist aesthetics.
Even for a socialist, this is simply delusional
It's sad how propagandized Amerikkkans can be. Who taught you to hate strangers as deeply as you do? What has the DPRK done to you?
I hope the resources I have available to share can help you start the process of healing.
Best of luck!
