North Korea accuses US of declaring war, says can take countermeasures

North Korea's foreign minister on Monday said President Donald Trump had declared war on North Korea and that Pyongyang reserves the right to take countermeasures, including shooting down U.S. strategic bombers even if they are not in the country's air space.

"The whole world should clearly remember it was the U.S. who first declared war on our country," Foreign Minister Ri Yong Ho told reporters in New York.

"Since the United States declared war on our country, we will have every right to make countermeasures, including the right to shoot down United States strategic bombers even when they are not inside the airspace border of our country."

How can you declare war when you’ve been at war for 67 years?

Umm, they do realize we have been at war since 1950, right?

Yes, go on and shoot at one of our airplanes and see what happens. Great idea, Chia Pet.

How’d he declare war on a country that’s been at war with us since 1950? All that exists right now is a cease-fire, not official peace.

But just to indulge Fatboi, how did Trump declare war? By calling Fatboi a Rocket Man on a Suicide Mission. By calling him Little Rocket Man? By pledging to destroy the country should we and our allies be attacked?

With Trump having taken the chokers off the military, would the Norks really know it?

If they shoot down a bomber, the country is done.

If they shoot down an airliner, well... God won’t help them after we’re done with them.

Military target is one thing. Civilians, well... there would probably be a couple artificial suns popping up over Norkland.

N. Korea has met its match. Trump is gaining upper hand on N. Korea in their own game.
