    North Korea's Christmas Present to the US: Death and a Diplomatic Breakthrough

    Kim Jong Un is seen riding a white horse. White horses, also known as "pale horses", are representations of death or coming death. He demands that the US to choose their gift soon for a diplomatic breakthrough. He ventures to this mountain before he does something big.

    I figured the white horse represented purity. Which goes along with his "glorious leader/god" persona.

    This is the kind of horseshit Trump falls for on a daily basis. Of course he'll take the bait. Dictators gotta stick together.

    I guess some people still think that foreign policy of sitting and doing nothing is sustainable.

    If US won't do shit, then its allies in that part of the globe will eventually look for others who will do.

    I didn’t say do nothing about North Korea. I said disregard their opinion openly.

    In fact, refusing to grant their 1984-brand tin pot dictatorship legitimacy IS very much doing something.

    The other side of that coin is to continue to support South Korea as an important ally and invest heavily in that partnership. Unfortunately Trump, in his infinite idiocy, has served to do unwarranted harm to that allegiance for no good reason whatsoever.

    They have tested an intercontinental missile launch not too long ago. Also fact: It takes 30mins for a nuke to reach the US from NK

    This is basically the option I didn't see above: Empty Threat.

    While it's possible NK has salvaged enough of their damaged tech to make nukes again, I don't think they're ready to test one yet. NK has a long history of trolling Trump and knows he's otherwise occupied with his impeachment, the budget crisis he's making far worse, going golfing and whatever the fuck he's eating that requires him to flush 10 to 15 times (his words?). While NK would love some free conce...some more free concessions, I din't see this as anything other than standard-issue playground taunting.

    And while Kim's people are in the dark, he most certainly isn't. He knows exactly what would happen were he to actually use one of those missiles.

    He had less votes than his opponent. That's not elected by the people.

    And meanwhile his people are completely oblivious to the outside world having to deal with the 24/7 propaganda machine that is NK.

    No, they didn't. How about you read up on it and what genocide actually is? I have family members that lived through it, there was no genocide against us. It's also dealt with extensively in school, so I know very well what happened by having it in school and from stories from family members.

    If not for the US getting involved in it, we would be living under a communist dictatorship.

    Yeah, no. We don't want reunification when it will destroy us as a country.

    Yes, they did. Read up on the Korean war.

    Maybe you shouldn't post shit from 2014. People don't want it if it comes at a economic loss, which will ruin us as a country.

    It's also mostly older people who are overwhelmingly positive to it. They won't be the leaders in the future, those who are young in present time will be.

    You possess some mighty selective reading. It also says people don't want it, if it means trouble with the economy.
