Topic: What do you think of North Korea? - page 3. (Read 8405 times)

North Korea would not launched Ballistic Missile just for nothing. To be be honest, I do not have many information known about Missiles that is why I cannot explain what are the possible effects of these today or in the future. Thus, I'd like to think that we shouldn't be paranoid about the said launching of Ballistic Missile. However, there is no harm in being alarmed especially that we are doing it for the sake of self-learning and awareness and not for us to make false accusations to North Korea. This issue of concern is a responsibility of the authority of expertise in the field to explain and resolve. It is their duty to assure people that nothing bad will happen, if really  there's none. And it is their obligation to solve this if there's something bad that will possibly happen.

North Korea is only a threat to South Korea and no one else. At the start of last November, America began posturing for war against North Korea and Syria. Like the RSII-Coalition, North Korea believed that deterrence would work, since disarmament proved ineffectual for Libya. Two weeks later, China was pushing the US to agree to a Double Freeze de-escalation and denuclearization with North Korea, as South Koreans protested in the streets for peace. The Double Freeze agreement was vetoed by America, but after Trump visited South Korea the focus of military aggression switched from North Korea to Russia. North Korea does not have vast oil reserves, and Kim Jon-un just wants to survive and maintain his power, so there is no incentive for escalation other than fearmonger to the populace to justify increases in military spending. If North Korea went to war with the US then it would definitely be the result of a chemical false flag attack blamed on North Korea. Up until this year, when Turkey smuggled empty canisters into Syria or Al-Nusra kidnapped civilians from Ghouta and Douma and staged a sarin attack, the CIA and White Helmets would traditionally place the blame (preemptively) on Putin and Assad. So the fact that this month's latest chemical false flag attack (in which no one died) has been blamed on Putin and Assad (rather than on a prank played on people suffering from hypoxia in a waiting room), indicates that the US is no longer focused on escalating against North Korea due to South Korea's strong economic ties to China and NATO.

Denuclearization could change this, but the fact that Kim Jong-un is willing to enter South Korea and negotiate face-to-face with President Moon indicates that he now feels safe enough to give up his deterrence strategy. Both leaders were smiling and confident, which means that military tension is low. If Kim Jong-un felt threatened by anyone, he would not be visiting South Korea, and President Moon would not be visiting North Korea.

The leaders of both North & South Korea literally crossing borders, shaking hands, and talking face-to-face was the best diplomatic move they could have made, and a confident step towards peace in East Asia.

Trump's Tweet: "Wow, we haven’t given up anything & they have agreed to denuclearization (so great for World), site closure, & no more testing!"

I am a supporter of Trump, but his role was pretty limited in this pact. It was made possible only after both the North Korean leader (Kim Jong Un) and the South Korean president (Moon Jae In) made solid concessions with their political positions. In particular, I'd say that it was a brave move by the much vilified North Korean leader Kim. 

Just saw it released on the news today North Korea has officially ended the war they have with the South.
It was posted on multiple news outlets as well and showing both sides presidents shaking hands as part of the deal.
This should be viewed as a pact right?
Of course Trump is saying it was because of his influence on both of those two countries.

Yes, we all should be alarmed. It is a form of threat for everyone where they put risk in people. It is not a great move but what's great move is the recent event where the presidents of North and South Korea meets in the boundary of the two said countries. It is a great move for the country for the start of peace of the two countries. Hoping that North Korea would continue those moves towards peace.

Some seismic stuff going on in the DMZ:

For the first time ever, the North Korean leader crossed on to South Korea, to meet the RoK president.  There are indications that Kim Jong Un may visit Seoul in future.

From where did you got this news? I searched all the major news sites, and I can't find anything related to this. On the other hand, from what I have heard, North Korea has agreed to freeze its nuclear program. 

thinking about my north korean country there is little knowledge about that country. North Korea has foreign cultural restrictions that enter the country, such as fast food in the form of kfc, mcdonald starbacks and so on we can not find in the country.jean jeanswhich we often use will not be encountered in the country. nuclear weapons problems that reportedly exist but there is no proof .

North Korea has sent an open letter to a number of parliaments, including Australia's, to announce itself as a fully fledged nuclear power, and say any attempt by the US to destroy it could lead to "horrible nuclear disaster"

I think that it is a right of every country to save their people, but war should be there last resort.

I think North Korea have every right to have nuclear weapons. Just because america doesn't agree with them, why are they wrong to defend themselves? If there was oil in the country, american would have invaded them by now.

If North Korea is trying to save their people then it is good and practical.

No... you can't call a country simple when they keep 350,000 political prisoners in labor camps, in appalling conditions. Also, you need to remember that they are one of the few nations in the world which possess nuclear weapons and ICBMs.

North Korea is a simple country, people have just made a hype of it.

 I think that in North Korea there is not a dictator but more ,a criminal that use his people for to make money and live as a King,i am feel so sorry for all citizen of North Korea.They have to work for few coins and live in totally poverty.This is a big drama.They are slave of the regime. It is really unbelievable.

North Korea is very interesting country. It's like a big reality show but it's not. I don't know why people of north korea still not made revolution.

North Korea can soon become a terror to every part of the country.

I would say yes. Because kim jong un is provoking war against any country that opposes him. Having acquired nukes gives them confidence and a sense of power because of threat.

But reallisticaly, with just one bomb the whole north korea can be erased on the face of the earth. I just hope it won't come to that point.

all countries including north korea always defend their country to protect their people, I think north korea launches its missile missiles just want to show off their power if a big war moment occurs.

I feel sorry for those poor people living under such totalitarian regime.
The problem is also that communism and socialism leave a deep trace in nation's psyche and continue to affect it long after their fall.
It can be seen in Eastern Europe. Communism ended almost 30 years ago, but its devastating effects still linger because of its brainwashing quality. Many political elites in nowadays Eastern Europe were raised and educated in a totalitarian background, so their competence for action and vision are very limited. This is one of the main reasons why Eastern Europe is trailing behind the West. It takes generations to purify this totalitarian genes and views form the national body.
