North Korea: Kim Jong-un vows to make military ‘invincible’ as he hits out at US

Kim Jong-un has vowed to make his country’s military “invincible” to counter what he called persistent hostility from the US.

The hermit kingdom’s leader gave mixed signals during a speech at an event on Monday by saying that while his primary objective was to give North Korea an “invincible military capability” no one would dare challenge, these objectives must not be seen as threatening war with its neighbour South Korea or the US, its regional ally.

Mr Kim said his plans for an “invincible” military were for the country’s “rights to self-defence” and not “because of South Korea”.

“I say once again that South Korea isn’t the one that our military forces have to fight against,” he said. “Surely, we aren’t strengthening our defence capability because of South Korea. We shouldn’t repeat a horrible history of compatriots using force against each other.”

Mr Kim said the country’s “enemy is war itself” and not countries like “South Korea and the US.”

“But our external efforts for peace do not in any way mean giving up our rights to self-defence,” he added.

Mr Kim criticised both the countries and issued oft-repeated claims that the allies are building up their military might in the region.

The message is: We don't mind talking to you but nukes are completely off the table. Now sign a peace treaty with us and leave Korean Peninsula. Don't come back. As for S. Korea, don't ever think about developing your own nukes.

Slo' Joe and his dim-witted minions could get played

America is unwilling and unable to intervene. Biden’s donors will find a small conflict somewhere to get involved with for the military/industrial complex’s benefit. The loss of life is actually a good thing, just ask Bill Gates.

Biden might send him a couple trillion dollars. We can always mint a couple more of those trillion dollar platinum coins, so ... you know ... it wouldn’t cost us anything.

He certainly has some serious health issues. While there could be other reasons for his change in appearance, the talk of body double should not be dismissed as a wild conjecture IMHO.

As an side, there have been some organizational changes in top leadership. They are creating backup positions, which can take over part of Kim's duties, not just for his sister. Creating such positions have been a no-no because dispersion of power is a threat to the absolute leader. Another indication that he has real health problems.

Kim. You still need to feed an army. You can’t even feed what you have.

In the near-term, yes. In the long-term, they want more.

N. Korea could be gone tomorrow but will try to follow their grand plan to the end.

North Korea’s ultimate weapon is unleashing millions of refugees on the South and China.

Kim to Sleepy Joe: “I’ll face off against you, sucker. Let the highest hairdo win.”

Cloth them in the new Invisible armor. So fine that anyone unfit for the job he holds, or anyone who is very simple in character can’t see or even feel it.

But if everyone’s in the army, everybody gets fed. Problem solved.

I think his heart attack messed him up. I think the country is really being run by his cold eyed sister ( the little minx)
