    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 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.

      The US is a bloodthirsty death cult.

          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.

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

          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.

              Is it though? Does the US really have business in their war? (Of course the answer is yes, but only to sell them weapons)

              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.
