Nuclear Nightmare-North Korea (2/5)

On May 25, 2009, North Korea announced that it had successfully conducted its second nuclear test, having expelled all international nuclear inspectors as a response to a tightening of sanctions by the UN Security Council which had punished NKs long-range ballistic missile test conducted in April. NK is now determined to revive its atomic weapons and other advanced missile development programs despite widespread international opposition, especially from the U.S, South Korea, and Japan. The UN Security council thus unanimously passed a resolution to tighten NK, including inspections of cargo vessels and airplanes suspected of carrying weapons and nuclear technology. NK has sold missiles to Iran and other Middle East neighbors, and a nuclear reactor to Syria. According to the Korean Central News Agency, the North's state-run news service, "an attempted blockade of any kind by the U.S. and its followers will be regarded as an act of war and met with a decisive military response... No mater how hard the U.S.-led hostile forces may try all sorts of isolation and blockade, the DPRK, a proud nuclear power, will not flinch from them."

@Sexisttroll This is not communism, Karl marx did not write this in his book. This is "Stalinism" at its peak.

@BOOK3R

Yeah maybe because it'd BLOW UP THE WORLD.

And there's no "real" communist countries because Communism is stateless, therefore Communist states are not real.

@JonnydaSilva1 Did i say that Japanese were goody good flowers? No... And one more think to add, UK is nothing better then USA, UK succesfully destroyed entire red race "Indians".

Should Iran nuke USA if USA attacks Iran, that would make war shorter, and less people would die?

[JonnydaSilva1]

@3SRBIJACCCC Lol, Sick? Japanese led English/American and more men to their deaths in the Death Marches, they raped Phillipinian women and if the USA were not to use the bombs they predicted the deaths of another million soldiers if they invaded Japan..

[3SRBIJACCCC]

The only nuclear nightmare is USA, we all know which country was sick and cowered enough to use nuclear weapon. It was..... USA!

It makes no sense to say that Kim Il Sung said he was unhappy with the Russians because Russians are the only reason the North Koreans even have an armed military . Even to this day everything they drive in their freaking military parades is USSR shit. So that alone makes the juche idea total nonsense because their entire nation is dependable on China , Russia, and whoever buys their plutonium

North Korea could follow the path of reforms, such as China, Vietnam, Kuba.Esli not it will be very poorly throughout the region.
