North Korea says to bolster deterrent against U.S(North Korean Delusion Alert)

Kim Il Jung is having delusions of a United States attack. In the meantime while he is having his delusions, in reality his people are starving.

[tet68]

The bigger question is are his generals crazy enough to follow his orders if he does order it.

There's no indication Dear Leader is sane and there's no guessing the thought process of the insane.

When you live with the insane, your sanity is in question.

[DB]

Very true.

Though wanting to live is pretty deep-seated.

the Committee for the Peaceful Reunification of the Fatherland

Shouldn't that be the "Motherland" ???

[Toadman]

Check out his one other post and you'll see the same type of language use. I'm guessing our new FReeper is overseas and using translation software. I could be mistaken (wouldn't be the first time).

Simargal. Welcom to FR. Please use small words and short sentences... it's all I can handle.

Re #2

He tries to get us scared again. I dare him to nuke us.

All talk, and no action. He cannot even dare to fire his dinky missile, whose guidance system is suspect at best. Why do you think that he could nuke us?:)

[Virginia Ridgerunner]

Having atomic bombs and "weaponizing" them are two entirely different things. Although he *may* have built a few crude bombs, unless he has a viable method of arming and delivering them, then they are useless to him. The "Little Boy" bomb in 1945 weighed 10 tons, and the Enola Gay very nearly ran out of runway when taking off for the Hiroshima mission.

Kim could conceivably put a bomb on a tramp trawler and attempt to sail it into a port someone, but I figure that if I can think of something like this, then the U.S. Navy and Coast Guard also can and have taken appropriate measures to guard against this.

You know you're an idiot, doncha? Please don't tell me that you're not, I have to judge you by your own words, not any pointless et tuque assertions to the contrary.

[Excuse_My_Bellicosity]

I guess the North Korean definition of deterrent is to be outnumbered 5,000:1, have no missile defense, and the enemy has the ability to knock down your missile.

[Excuse_My_Bellicosity]

The problem here is that their leader is crazy and delusional enough to launch. His country would be a smoking hole but that doesn't matter to a guy who is wants to be a martyr and go down in history. Kim's legions of yes-men are telling him that he's divine and only 2nd to God. Kim just may figure that he can hide out in a bunker and a few million less mouths to feed are no big deal.

[spokeshave]

Sounds like their rocket will fizzle off the launch pad on July 4th.

Thanks for the ronery fireworks Kim

[rahbert]

I am coming to the conclusion that Kim has no nukes.

If he had, there would have been a test, either in NK or
Iran. There hasn't been, if there was we'd know about it.

He's got nothing, so why are we letting him play us?

[RightWhale]

they doen't bom other countries

They do mode, though. They did a lot more than bom S Kor.

[RightWhale]

there would have been a test

Perhaps there have been tests. It's has not always been clear even when a test was announced if it was nuke or not.

[garbageseeker]

A possibility

[garbageseeker]

I really do think that they have nukes. If the IAEA and all the world's intelligence agencies agree if NK Korea have nukes,then they must have nukes. The IAEA is always at odds with the world in regards to the United States and nuclear weapons.A good poker player never shows their cards.Rather instead to bluff the other player.

If he had, there would have been a test, either in NK or Iran. There hasn't been, if there was we'd know about it


If North Korea or Iran tested a nuclear weapon, they would be subject to international sanctions and the wrath of the international community. North Korea currently is surviving on the charity of the world community and cannot afford more sanctions.

[garbageseeker]

You bet.

[Philistone]

A statement carried by the North's official Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) on Saturday condemned as provocative a U.S. decision to deploy an updated version of its U-2 spy plane in South Korea.

Aurora?

[LeoWindhorse]

Kim is no crazier than Chavez or Ahmadinejhad.

It is always a mistake to allow people like these
to continue to live and breathe in this world.

[TenthAmendmentChampion]

Here is its other response:

It is amusing to observe as participants of this forum nothing knowing about other countries try to express about them the opinion. By the way Putin's program is focused basically on the poor countries of the East Europe. Russian of the Central Asia in the basic weight live in Kazakhstan and do not want emigrate anywhere. In difference disorganized from submission of your country of Ukraine, Georgia and others where Bush managed to put the nationalists.

That Bush... all powerful.

Wha??
