North Korea says 800,000 youth join military to ‘wipe out’ the US and ROK

[serenity]

Mike isn't wrong on Norko and supporting nations in the past and present failing to create a better system and standard of living. China reformed itself when Deng decided that "socialism is not poverty and to be wealthy is glorious". North Korea just never took a step in the right direction. Neither its leaders or supporters managed to make North Korea a better place to be. Politics or ideology aside, it is a gigantic failure.

South Korea made use of open markets and trade to get to where it is. China did similar but has not helped North Korea overcome the crazy parts of the revolution and old communism.

In order to prosper and begin developing, a nation needs to start integrating itself to the global trade to maximize its comparative advantages and leverage all that for many decades ( in the best case examples such as South Korea, Singapore, China). Isolation means slower economic and industrial development.

800k is not really a big number, Russia already used that many men in Ukraine, (Well, almost there, 200k original invading force + 300k mobik + 100-150k Wagner/Volunteer) see how far it get them? And South Korea is armed to their teeth. You aren't going to do shit on them unless you are 3 to 4 times their miltiary size. Which mean 3 to 4 times the 500k active member + 3 miilion draftee reservist. And that is assuming North Korea military tech is at South Korean level.......Which is not..

They were given an offer they couldnt refuse .

Of course, why should i help my enemy or someone who wants to destroy me? Lol China and Russia should be the ones helping Kim dynasty North Korea be a developed wealthy country like South Korea . But the opposite has happened. Lol If i was Korean i know which side i will choose. Anybody will make the rational choice here.
Let the Kim dynasty live with its paranoia. Moreover, fat Kim dynasty doesnt want to open up his country for trade, FDI or travel simply because the regime fears its people will realise hiw backward their country is compared to its peers/neighbours and how they have been caged and brainwashed for over half a century by the Kim dynasty, hence the danger this might pose to the regime i.e the regime is scared of being toppled. And i understand the regimes fear as well. Better to remain with the status quo of brainwashing the people everyday with the only one state TV/channel they can watch praising the Kim dynasty as a quasi GODLY regime and how they will destroy S.Korea, Japan and America and locking the people up in a giant open prison. Thats the best way of the regime maintaining its legitimacy and hold on power. To be honest, if i was the Kim dynasty i will do the same thing. Why change a winning solution?

NK doesnt totally trust China either, they kicked Chinese troops there since 1958. They dont want to follow Chinese model of opening up development since they are totally in fear of US army going to topple their state. There isnt much China can do if they dont want to develop their country as a priority, Chinese aids can only help somewhat and China do provide them with some foods and energy. Some sanctions sponsored by the UN, China also signed up to becos of their development of nukes that is also at odds with China and Russia too. NK used to receive lots aids from Soviet Union and China in 50, 60 and 70s last century, and thats why they were better off than South Koreans at that time.

Well, you keep helping the Kim dynasty remain In power, since you are worried that if the Kim dictatorship collapses then you are worried about a democratic system coming up in N.Korea which might not be in China's interest and might actually get closer to South Korea or even unify with South Korea and be closer to the US. In short China and Russia dont care about North Korean people , they care only about their geopolitical interests and i don't blame you guys. Afterall every country is after their national interests.
So despite the Kim dynasty being an extreme oppressive dictatorship its still better for China than a new democratic open party coming to power. A known frenemy is better than a "friend" you dont know i guess.. Reason China will keep supporting Kim regime , wether China wants it or not, You are almost hostage to N.Korea today, cant afford to be openly hostile to them. Catch 22 situation

They are going to destroy the U.S

 

[Foinikas]

First of all,who tells me that this is true? Lol!

We're talking about North Korea here.

China is ok if NK and SK reunite in the future, but China definitely wont let that happen if US troops are going to be stationed in united Korea to threaten China, or the new Korea is in military alliance with US, thats no no. For NK and SK to unite, US troops have to withdraw from the peninsula first. What gov the North Koreans want to have, its entirely up to them, China wont interfer in their internal affairs, China will work whatever the gov is in power as normal relation. China doesnt have a history going to countries to topple their govs as the US do. If US troops get out from the peninsula now, many conflicts there will be solved and NK will change for the better to open up and develop the economy.

I don’t care who said what, but NK developed an ICBM while heavily sanctioned meanwhile Pakistan can’t get Approval for helicopter engines while sucking on Uncle SAMs dry nips.

Dude, if the US leaves, N.Korea dynastic Kim regime will be embolden to invade S.Korea since the KIM regime is a 100% focused militaristic regime. They basically invest most of their resources in the military and security services to monitor and police their own people for fear of being toppled.
So without the US Kim dynasty will be emboldened even more to attack and conquer/unify Korea under his rule. Just like the Kim family did in 1950. Since they believe they have the upper hand and got nuclear weapons today. So the threat will come from North Korea's invasion not South Korea. So worry about your support for Kim dynasty and the threat they pose to the South more.
By contrast, South Korea has no incentive to invade the north. Afterall South Korea is one of the most wealthy developed industrialised country in the world. They don't need anything from North Korea, In fact unifying with backward commie North Korea will be a burden to the South Korean people and they will have to shed alot of their resources to rebuild and industrialised the North and uplift the peoples living standard's just like West Germany had to shed alot of its resources to help develop the commie East Germany after unification. Lol
Seriously those rigid commie ideological regimes have been a curse to most countries development until they had to abandon it.

All koreans want reunification on the North and South. Unification is Koreans internal affair. If US leaves, something peace will be worked between tge two.

Yeah they moght want unification..but I can assure you that Korean definitely wouldn't want to be unified under the commie Kim dynasty regime rule. Ask yourself if you were Korean will you want to be ruled by the Kim dynasty or the government in South Korea? Lol that's if you are honest with yourself then the answer will be obvious.

The thing is South Koreans might want unification but it's not a do or die affair for them, if it happens then fine if not then fine. They don't need anything from North Korea anyway(amd as I said it will even be a burden like raising a new child). By contrast North Koreans desperately need the South and its industries/investments etc. So yeah a unified Korea under a South Korean government will mean a very prosperous and powerful Korea . Under the North will just be another larger oppressive militaristic prison.

They probably going to work out some thing.

You can say all the bias you want but south Korea is not one of the most pro US countries in the world today for nothing. .

You can say all the bias you want but Japan is not one of the most pro US countries in the world today for nothing. .

Seriously, what kind of alien logic you use ?
