North Korea spends about a quarter of its budget on the armed forces but is reportedly unable to feed its soldiers.
A Japanese filmmaker who is in close contact with citizen journalists inside North Korea said that many of the army’s 1.2 million active troops are “in poor physical condition and in no fit state to fight.”
“For one thing, there are too many soldiers to feed,” Jiro Ishimaru told the Guardian, “and corruption is rife, so that by the time senior military officers have taken their share of food provisions to sell for profit on the private market, there is next to nothing left for ordinary soldiers.”
Trump is calling fat boys bluff...
That looks like something I left behind this morning.

They can always eat each other
Didn’t some general say an Army travels on its stomach? The only caveat is the Norks don’t have to go far.
I hope we have contingency plans to air-drop MREs on Nork troop concentrations. They will be so busy stuffing their faces that cleanup would be a breeze. Just kidding. Maybe.
How nice. Ain't a Commie Dictatorship such a wonderful thing?
Are any of you Antifa/SWJ's paying attention to this ??? Because this is what you'll get

Sounds to me like the first allied attack on the Norks would be intended for the staff officers, wherever they may be hiding.

During Lee’s invasion of Maryland AP Hill’s troops effectively sacked Union supplies held at Harper’s Ferry. It happened again a year later at Chancellorsville when Stonewall Jacksons successful assault paused when the troops ransacked the camp of the Union 11 Corps after Howard’s troops broke and ran. In both cases the Confederate troops ate well, but at the cost of battlefield momentum.
It’s been (half) jokingly asserted that any North Korean assault across the DMZ would be effectively stalled at the first line of South Korean supermarkets. Maybe South Korean and 2nd (US) Division artillery should pre-register their guns on those targets?
Bibimbap! My favorite! Now I’ve got to get to a Korean restaurant this weekend...
Carpet bomb them with k-rations. The old fashion kind, with cigarettes.
I ate at my favorite Asian place last week.....Appetizers and sides
I couldn’t eat the kimchee.
Ewww. What the heck is that?
Send them rations heavily laced with strong laxatives.
I was telling my students this. If North Korea invades the South, as soon as they leave the tunnel, they’ll use their gun to hold up the nearest restaurant and then drop their gun to eat.
Ever had k-rations?
