TENSIONS HIGH
The United States will begin large-scale annual drills with its ally South Korea later this month that it bills as defensive in nature and not provocative. North Korea typically protests against the drills, which it says are a rehearsal for invasion.
"The North Koreans seem to have been timing their recent short-range and medium-range missile tests to the weeks ahead of U.S.-South Korean joint exercises," said Joshua Pollack, editor of the U.S.-based Nonproliferation Review.
"If the allies can exercise their armed forces, so can the North," he said.
North Korea launched a ballistic missile on Wednesday that landed in or near Japanese-controlled waters for the first time, the latest in a series of launches by the isolated country in defiance of United Nations Security Council resolutions.
The main body of the missile landed in Japan's economic exclusion zone, a Japanese defense official said, escalating regional tensions that were already high after a series of missile launches this year and the decision by the United States to place a sophisticated anti-missile system in South Korea.

When you finally wake up to the game, you realize North Korea is just a pawn in the overall strategy. In my opinion the coming chaos will probably be blamed on ISIS but they could use North Korea too. The chaos is coming 100% guaranteed, the elections have always been rigged for the longest time. Jfk probably one of the first to go against the system. They want to play Muslims against Christians to destroy both religions(look at the pope calling for one world religion). They are going to create the "appocalypse" because they need to reduce populations and get everyone chipped to release the "zero point energy technology" to "save the earth". They are making us look like the enemies to the planet by burning fossil fuels. The perfect excuse for them to get behind murdering billions. Whatever you do DO NOT GET CHIPPED they will contain cyanide so they can kill you at the push of a button. People gotta wake up.. your vote means nothing...

You know that doesnt really happen anymore. The famine was in the 90's. Not defending Kimmy of course.
It was an ice-cold day in the North Korean border town of Musan when a small crowd gathered round what looked like a bundle of rags on the platform of the railway station. "I went up to see what they were looking at," recalled 63-year-old Lee Sun Ok, a North Korean farmer who had come to the city to sell some small rice-cakes she had made to earn money. "And then I saw it was the body of an old man with a piece of cloth placed over his face. "I asked if he had fallen down because he was sick, but the people shook their heads and said, 'No, he was just too hungry and died for lack of something to eat.'" Mrs Lee's account is among shocking first hand testimony about the dramatically worsening living conditions in the secretive Stalinist state obtained by The Sunday Telegraph last week.
The United Nations Security Council will meet on Wednesday (Aug 3) over the latest North Korea missile launch after the United States and Japan requested the meeting, diplomats said.
North Korea launched a ballistic missile on Wednesday that landed in or near Japanese-controlled waters for the first time, the latest in a series of launches by the isolated country in defiance of United Nations Security Council resolutions.
"We expect to be calling an emergency meeting of the Security Council for later this afternoon, with our Japanese colleagues," US Ambassador Samantha Power told reporters.

Oh, ok. This is from 2011, or should we call it the very, very late 1990's?

The great famine occurred for North Korea in the 1990's.... but to say that everyone has plenty today is a lie. There has been continual malnutrition and hunger in the country since that famine. The main reason that more people are not dying is because of foreign food aid.

You laugh now but you won't be laughing in the not to distant future. People fail to realize the nature of the universe we live in. It is filled with mass moving around everywhere. Every planet and every star is moving producing gravity waves that colloid everywhere at the smallest scale which is huge amounts of energy that's tap able everywhere. Enistien predicted it, tesla knew about it, and Viktor Schauberger began to find ways to tap into it. The energy source is so powerful you could evaporate the worlds oceans with something the size of a cup of coffee which is why they need everyone micro chipped. The schools have been setup a long time ago to keep us from finding out these simple truths in nature.

I don't think anyone's actually laughing, perhaps with a head shake as to how incredibly crazy it all is, that it's actually happening now.
I'm going add this again from my other thread, because i feel it's worth Noting.
Why Is The Western Media Ignoring The New Cold War? (w/Guest: Stephen Cohen)
Thom Hartmann speaks with Professor Stephen Cohen of The Nation Magazine about Russia, NATO, and our mainstream media's refusal to report on the New Cold War. (here in the West).
This is significant, things are escalating at catastophic levels right now and the West won't even acknowledge it.
Everything going on now is happening faster and faster, it's not just another event we can wave away anymore as some jerkoff dictator blah blah. It's not going to go well for anyone if it carries over.

You did tell me that I should realize that it doesn't happen any more.
It is still happening, and I think it is ok if people know it.
Notice that I didn't need to resort to profanity.
