Russia is deploying “human waves” of North Korean soldiers, the U.S. said Friday, and at least one soldier captured by Ukraine died of his injuries.

According to White House National Security Council spokesperson John Kirby, some North Korean soldiers have taken their own lives rather than surrendering to Ukrainian forces.

You are aware that Russian deserters were being captured by Russian forces and having their heads crushed ?

Indeed, with North Korean “human waves” tactics, there should be lots of corpses, prisoners, uniforms, documents, etc.... as evidence. Where is it??

When its made available, we can review it on its merits.

Until then, it remains - “when those in power repeat a lie long enough, in most people’s minds, it becomes truth.”

Remember, Saddam Hussein had an advanced nuclear program, Assad gassed his own people, Obama was a brilliant Constitutional law professor at U.Chicago, Joe Biden was clear-headed and sharp, Trump was a Russian spy, etc. etc..

These troops were being sent to fight with “minimal protection,” he said, and were suffering a “great deal” of losses.

How many unwilling Ukrainian conscripts have met that fate thanks to Zelensky? Tens of thousands.

Do the Ukies start press-ganging the Ukraine high school juniors next week, to keep the US money flow into Elensky's Go bag running?

So what?
America has invaded Grenada, Korea, Vietnam, Iraq etc etc etc under all kinds of pretexts, all since the end of WW II. I don't see you whining about any of that.
European countries have been invading each other for centuries. Nothing new here.

They have still not shown any proof. This whole N.Korean psyop was over South Korean arms to Ukraine, and the F16 pilots. If the North were there, then it would be sellable to the South’s public to arm Ukraine and scoop up the Billions of USD left on the table for weapons acquisition... due to the shortage of NATO produced weapons. South Korea’s MIC is big enough to arm Ukraine for another year - but that didn’t happen.

There are soldiers under thier own banners from Western Russia and many are mongols or Asian. These troops are actually in Kursk.

Zelinski was claiming two weeks ago that the Russians were burning the faces off every dead North Korean before they could recover any bodies.... This theory would support the never-break Ukrainian forces but is a shakey argument that they could not find a single body after Human Wave attacks.

South Korea lost a president over arms to Ukraine.

Zelinski is the ghost of Kiev or rather the Coward from Kiev because he is almost never there in Ukraine.

Good news for Ukraine is that they will have not were to hide if they look like the are over 16 when Russia stomps Ukraine into the dustbin the 90s.

We and the U.N. invaded Korea and we Vietnam?

No wonder the communist North Koreans, Russians, and Chinese and the communist North Vietnamese, Russian, and Chinese formed up and started fighting back during those wars.

As I am sure you know, that is Alex's prediction.

He believes Biden only gave Ukraine one last series of payoffs in exchange for 18-year olds being conscripted.

The NORKs have had assassination teams cornered on a number of occasions. In one case the majority blew themselves up (which exploding belt buckles, IIRC) and one whose belt buckle failed BIT OFF HIS OWN TONGUE and swallowed it so he couldn’t speak during interrogation.

To say they are “hardened men” would be a gross understatement.

That must’ve been an exciting execution but I imagine quite intensely scary at the same time. I can’t imagine the adrenaline that must’ve been flowing. I was on submarines in the Navy during Iran’s 1979 revolution and the few years after. It was tense time when we fired off ICBMs not knowing if they were armed or for an exercise/drill as they didn’t tell us until afterwards. There were a few crewmen who broke down emotionally and some who cried for a while, when the missile would be launched, believing nuclear war had broke out.

I had a few nervous times in the field too. The SHAPE bunker is clearly a target. Riding the NATO bus in Izmir, Turkey from the hotel to the base with escorts front/rear armed with 9mm sub-machineguns. The bus was sometimes a target of PKK. It all turned out just fine.

I can understand the stress that follows firing an ICBM off a sub. The guys that fly an F-16 to drop a nuke are in an even tougher spot. The weapon might take them out. One hopes that we never have to deploy that class of weapons.

When SNL was funny, was really hoping they would do a 2024 election sketch like they did in 2016

Chapelle and Rock were hilarious

Here is video of N Koreans, alive, nor dead. But about to die. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JUUg8-Jh-oI

Ok, thanks - if that is not photoshopped or staged or such, it does look like Asians, though whether they are North Koreans, I certainly cannot tell.

Nonetheless, if there are human wave attacks by thousands of North Koreans being beaten back, it ought not to be that difficult to produce bodies or even a few live (wounded) ones. Perhaps, that will happen soon.

You might be right. If this video is faked, it could be with Putin’s Buryat (Siberian) contingent of fighters. But I bet 90% certainty that Nork fighters are in the YouTube video I posted

Telegram postings would tell the truth. But I am not on Telegram.
