When a U.S. ballistic missile submarine (SSBN) surfaced for a rare visit to South Korea this week it was a blunt reminder that Washington always has nuclear-tipped missiles deployed within close striking distance of North Korea, analysts said.
Wow. I know Reuters is state-affiliated media, but the barbarism and cultural fetishizing of brutal mass murder and environmental devastation is just disgusting. These people are sick. When will the European hordes learn that this sort of behavior is uncivilized and hurts them more than it hurts anyone else. I guess they’ll just have to fuck around and find out.
I think the first line may have been in jest, regardless, the rest of the points are valid I believe. They are exclaiming in horror at the attitide conveyed by the article, that showing off with these subs and terrorizing NK with them is good and we should be proud of it. I also see this as pretty barbaric behaviour. That sub has enough nukes on it to probably turn to glass every population centre in NK. Isn’t that terrifying?
NK poses no real harm, they are desperately trying to catch up with their military, probably because they are surrounded by American weapons. The only thing that NK has been taught by the international community is that you have to have nukes and be a bully to be successful. Following the example of the US.
I’m not sure whether or not that poster is from Russia has much to do with what they wrote, and for the record, I found it perfectly legible.
„NK poses no real harm“ the people suffering under a brutal militaristic dictatorship. Starving and possibly worked to their death if they disagree even slightly with the state or dare to question their leader might disagree.
I did neglect to mention I meant external harm. But I wonder does surrounding them with guns and nukes make their state more likely to demilitarize? I feel like it does not.
Fair enough, I mean they are also increasingly posing a threat to external entities, didn’t a recent missile test fly over Japan? But in general I do not think NK is a positive influence on the world, much less once they can build and deploy nuclear weapons. In any case the original article really isn’t news as the us has the ability to strike basically anywhere on the planet with nuclear weapons. But I do agree that it won’t have a demilitarizing effect, however I doubt anything could have.
The West already devastated the entire country completely unprovoked. 30,000 tons of napalm. 600,000 tons of bombs (more than the US dropped in the Pacific Theater during ALL of WW2). Destroyed every single city and town. Destroyed 85% of their buildings. North Korea is the third most bombed country in the history of the world.
Which has nothing to do with the US. The US created the entire concept of South Korea in its barbaric wrath against anyone that would try to do something other than white European capitalism.
Reading your comment history, it seems it would benefit you greatly to read history. The simple reaction you just had to the parent comment was born out of historical ignorance: you don’t know the history of the region, so when you see a claim that you don’t like the sound of (despite it being true), your reaction is to assume the other person is divorced from reality. In actuality, by nature of not knowing history, you are detached from reality.
And they were right to. I’d be damned if some foreign country tried to set up a fascist client state in my homeland, especially one that was made up predominantly of the imperial overlords that were just thrown out.
I wholeheartedly agree? I was referring to how the South Korean government was predominantly made up of Japanese imperial collaborators in its early years.

Jeez, even the first thing you say can easily be checked. Please check if what you think is true is actually true.
Reuters partly does their own research/reporting, partly it just redistributes reports from other media.
That’s completely different than your first claim.
This doesn’t make any sense. Are you from Russia? How does anything in your comment make sense? It feels like random words and sentences.

Pyongyang is probably safe but port cities like Chongjin or Nampo will be the first to be smashed to bits if/when the west decides to go that route.

The US is a bloodthirsty death cult.
unprovoked? North Korea invaded South Korea.
Which has nothing to do with the US. The US created the entire concept of South Korea in its barbaric wrath against anyone that would try to do something other than white European capitalism.
wow, talk about divorced from reality!
Is it though? Does the US really have business in their war? (Of course the answer is yes, but only to sell them weapons)

Edit: got my threads mixed up. Yes, North Korea was in the right here.

Oh shit. I thought you were defending the US occupying South Korea! Got my thread mixed up!
