North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has fired his top general amid a shakeup of the country’s military leadership and wants his army to “gird for a war,” state media reported Thursday.
It’s always best to fire your top general just before going to war. He must have learned that from Stalin and Putin.
Well, Russian generals got too cocky recently, so Putin sent them into a meat grinder. Now there are no generals and Putin and his oligarchs have earned even more money. Win win!
They’re just girding though. Got loads of time to gird.
You kid, but I think he actually did.
the general made the mistake of pointing out that going to war would be stupid. of course he had to go. Nobody calls Kim stupid.
Nobody calls Kim stupid.
Kim stupid? Kim Possible!
Funny
Cringe
They must have run out of food and attention again.
hahahahaha
No they just use it to produce more arms that they can then export to Russia.
My biggest concern here is that Kim Jong-Un has been holding off on war until he had ICBMs, which it’s now the case, and they can reach any target in the US.
I’d trust that the US’s missile defenses could pretty easily stop North Korea’s entire arsenal. They’re not getting anywhere else China/Russia/whoever also launched a strike, at which point we’re all fucked anyway.
Nuclear war is bad for business, I really, really doubt China’s interested in starting one on NK’s whim
When the CCP pops the tombstone out in half a decade to join Putin’s failed USSR 2.0, they’ll be leaving little ol’ Un in his land island all alone and orphaned of big bullies to ally with. Thats when shit is gonna get fucky. NK doesn’t do business.
This is how I imagine China and North Korea in international relations.
No they can’t. They can maybe, if the wind is just right and luck is with them, reach the West Coast Hawaii is questionable as well.
It seems that Kim Jung Un’s most recent solid fuel ICBMs have benefited from Russian help. It also explains the increased range.
“Kim’s biggest weapons were saved for the end, when his troops rolled out new ICBMs that were flight-tested in recent months and demonstrated ranges that could reach deep into the U.S. mainland, the Hwasong-17 and Hwasong-18. Some analysts say the missiles are based on Russian designs or know-how.”
Kim Jong Un wants no criticism of him.
