    1. @jenny Doing what? If why the belicose rhetoric it is to ramp up the tensions so that it brings concessions from everyone who does not want a full blown war breaking out.

      They increase the tensions by carrying out nuclear and ballistic missile tests it brings their surrounding neighbours to the table. As part of the negotiations they demand aid that will keep their ramshackle regime going.

      Normally, when aid is provided there are organisations that will have oversight of how the aid gets distributed. Charities and the UN will either monitor or run the aid projects. By ratcheting up the tensions, they get to grant conditions on the providers of aid. The aid goes directly to the North Korean government who then use it to keep their regime in power.

      The NK regime decides where the aid goes. When North Korea lost an estimated 500,000 to 3 1/2 million to famine, when aid started to come into the country after they sabre rattled and carried out nuclear tests, the regime controlled who the aid went to. Regime loyalists and the core army were first in line.

      Don’t forget that they have to play to their domestic audience too. The meetings with Trump was an enormous gift to the North Koreans because it would show the “cowardly” Americans and the stooges in Japan and South Korea are scared and terrified of how strong and mighty North Korea is.

    2. @jenny The problem is that when North Korea is creating tensions by being aggressive to South Korea, carrying out nuclear and ballistic missile tests and threatening the world with nuclear war they are doing it was a way of blackmailing and getting concessions from everyone. Like a thug who will break your nose and burn your house down if you do not give him money.

      With the street thug, you go to the police. With North Korea you can’t. If someone is continually threatening you, eventually at some point the situation is going to be so toxic that you are forced into acting to neutralise the threat.

      Saddam Hussein could easily have provided documentation and evidence to show he had destroyed his WMD capabilities. He didn’t because he wanted scare Iran into not attacking or at least to stop Iran from supplying the anti Saddam opposition. By the time he realised the US were going to attack him on the pretext of the WMD threat it was too late.

    3. @jenny Do not think that North Korea is irrational. They might appear bonkers, but they are walking a very tight line to stay alive and in power. They are never going to give up threatening the world around them, their offensive military capabilities or their WMD capabilities. To do so will mean they lose leverage and the means of preventing the destruction for the regime.

      That is what Trump so dangerously misunderstood. He thought that he could charm Kim Jong Un and that Kim would respond to enducements. Remember that idiotic promotional video that Trump played for the North Koreans. Trump and his circle thought that Kim could be bought by showing how the money could role into North Korea if they liberalised the economy and started building luxury hotels in North Korea.

      The refusal to “liberalise and reform” the economy, even along Chinese lines, is based on the fear and knowledge that is could tear the family regime apart.

  1. In sanguine paradise lil uzi says “in reality I’m 5’4 stand on my money now I’m 6’6.” In reality a US bill is .0044 inches thick So we have the equation Y x .0044 = 14in. (6’6 – 5’4 = 14in) To solve we divide both sides by 0044 which is approximately 3,256. Now to actually be able to stand he would need 2 stacks, so we are up to 6,512. This means Uzi was standing on approximately 6,512 US bills. Now you may be wondering what dollar amount the bills are, but going back in the song Uzi says “I just made 100k,it was quicker than a vine.” With this we can infer that he makes good money and can only assume he was using 100 dollar bills. So the equation is now 100 x 6,512 That equals 651,200. In conclusion, this means that Lil Uzi Vert was most likely standing on $651,200 to go from 5’4 to 6’6

  2. Every time there’s a new US President, NK always tries making noise and talking America into paying them money to settle down. That’s how they maintain luxury for the rich.

    1. yeah, except that Trump was the only one fool enough to legitimize KJI by giving him attention.

    2. So why America keep messing with them and their nuke why should the USA get to build nuke use them but no body else should have them if it wasn’t for the US nobody would need ñukes they try to put fear into the world they texted it on a country that already surrender and don’t forget the US carpet bomb north Korea so they have no choice every country should have ñukes if you look around the world every white country have ñukes or access to it I don’t hear them telling Israel to give up their bombs the Russian the British the French make u wonder what u guys got plan for us this is not the days of our forth parents why should anyone depend on your security when you prove time and time again what u about it’s no country in the world that doesn’t bear scar from White man oggrasion they fool the people for years but not no more the god and Jesus thing dont work no more we understand it’s bombs missiles keep the people of north Korea Alive and if iran want its people to stay alive they got to get the bomb soon it has nothing to do with money their lives depends on being ready for US oggrasion

    3. @Pal Carridice America invented the nuke to stop WW2. Nukes are too powerful to let every insane country/person with enough money to just build away… That’s all iHave time for as a response, have a great day! : )

      Addendum: The principal role of nuclear weapons is to deter potential adversaries from an attack on the United States, our allies, or our vital interests. Russia maintains very large strategic and tactical nuclear forces.

    1. @Tacit Tern I don’t know? Are the CIA accountable to the house, or can they make their own rules. I don’t know enough to answer if the US is involved through certain government sponsored channels, in drug or other black market activities. Maybe they are without prrsidential approval. I doubt any super power is 100% clean though (free from at least letting some criminal activity go unpunished).

    2. @Tacit Tern p.s I’m no fan of China and agree the CCP is extremely corrupt at best, but China is gaining power and maybe Trump was a jackass but don’t think Biden can handle them.

    3. @Mom Of4Kids lol. Did you know NK tested hydrogen bomb in 2017? Neither Trump nor Biden, NK does not care. The Rocket man keeps testing.

    1. Mostly, if they can afford them. The reason why people feel threatened over North Korea’s tests is because they are primarily testing how far a missile or bomb can hit, and how much damage it can do, and with the repeated threats and overall aggression it’s definitely possible they might use them. While they’re not a very large threat to America specifically, they’re way too confident, especially with kidnappings and executions, along with the disturbing camps they put people in, and they may decide one day under tension to launch an attack against another country if they believe they’re strong enough.

  3. “Kim Jong-un, stop humping the laser. Why don’t you get a frickin’ room already!”
    – Dr. Evil 😈 😂

  4. I was always.told when i was younger to.watch youre mouth mouth.can be a weapon like.calling.people ugly in it.could form army

  5. So let them. Stop trying to bring NK back as an actual concern.

    Move on to more anti-Venezuela propaganda if you want a Libya 2.0.

  6. “Nothing would move” Just like he did when Obama was in office.

  7. War is back with Biden and fashionable as ever. Prepare your Sons and Daughters to make the ultimate sacrifice for the new regime.
