If there would be oil, natural gas or any other valuable natural resources in North Korea, then the U.S military would have 'liberated' the north korean people aeons ago

This is just typical media fear mongering, what happened to svine flu anyway?...

It wasn't profitable enough and you cant invade it

North Korea threatens South Korea with Nuclear Attacks. It starves its own people, forbids them to travel freely, dress freely, use the Internet freely.

And the U.S. are the "bad guys"?

Right.

While the quote said the US are the worlds destabilizing force.. I haven't said that here.

The west doesn't care about the North Korean people so there is no point in bringing that up.. Noone will go in there just to free the oppressed peoples of NK.. even though if the war starts, we will be told that that is one of the main reasons.

Also.. and this is the most important fact.. The reason North Korea is threatening South Korea is a direct result of US threats and condemnation over the past year.. the US began meddling and winding up Japan, then Japan began threatening and NK began Posturing.. then South Korea backed US sanctions and NK threatened to attack if SK or the US detained any of its ships illegally..

Which is any sovereign countries right..

As I said, I don't agree with anything to do with North Korea.. But blindly believing and supporting everything we are being told about the situation is stupid because much of it is obviously either A. Propaganda or B. News with the North Koreans side left out.

Yes, a crazy little man with nuclear weapons is no threat.

Yes, this little man is part of the Communist Regime, along with China and Russia (wonder why they don't do anything . . . hmmmm)

Yes, this little man has threatened countries that the US has sworn to protect.

Yes, this little man has ignored UN sanctions.

Yes, this little man is helping Iran (who Russia is also helping, along with China . . . coincidence?)


But the US is the bad guy.

Yes, me thinks you have a screw lose, to be honest.

Propaganda maybe ???

Smokescreen is a better word.

Israel ?????????????

If you don't like it, get lost and dont bother making a stupid comment...

God forbid someone might try to create an alternative perspective about something on a site like this

But the US is the bad guy.

Please point out to me where I said that in this thread.. I said Westerners are wrong overall with the way we are going about all our bullying..

So what you are saying is.. you don't agree that there is any propaganda being directed towards any of us in regards this situation? You believe that previous to all this Nuclear testing and threatening crap - North Korea didn't have the right to test any missiles or do a plethora of other things without being threatened by the US and various allies in the area?? When everyone else IS allowed to do these things..

Screw loose..? I know I have a screw loose but that doesn't change the war in Iraq.. does it? Same story isn't it? Almost exactly..

AS I HAVE SAID TWICE ALREADY.. I DON'T AGREE WITH ANYTHING TO DO WITH NORTH KOREA.. IM TRYING TO POINT OUT THAT WE ARE BEING TREATED LIKE MOGS AGAIN IN ORDER TO GET ON THE SIDE A POSSIBLE WAR WITH NORTH KOREA..

I think all of you people should learn how to read TBH and not make your replies based on one or two sentences that might have stood out as you scanned through.

Yea, possibly.. I lump all that stuff into the category of propaganda.. especially once it comes out over MSM.

The Israel thing is to make a point of how we are defending similar actions by another nation.. I have nothing against Israel.

I'm kind of surprised we haven't taken care of this situation a long time ago.

If the leaders of NK were taken out I'm not sure the people would even know what to do lol.

There is a documentary on NK the only one I'm aware of where westerners were allowed to film inside the country. Maybe someone knows the title of it here.

The people go to church and at the front of the church is a giant picture of Kim they sing praises to him, bow before the picture and also kiss it and talk about how great he is. According to the film makers a good majority don't even know what is outside of NK. Or at least they don't admit to it.

They did find a couple people that talked to them off camera and told them the reason they do this is because if anyone appears to not approve of Kim they are reported then they are hauled off and never seen again. They also said there is a problem of neighbor a doesn't like neighbor b so he informs the authorities that "b" is not a supporter and he disappears.

At one point they almost lost their equipment because govt. officials followed them everywhere and told them what they could and couldn't film. From what I can remember hey never did address how they were able to talk to the folks who talked off camera possibly a member of their team wandered off for a while or something I don't know (bathroom break maybe?).

Kim reminds me a lot of Saddam just keeps his people a lot more isolated it appears.

Hence the reason it has always made me wonder why we haven't taken care of that in the first place if we are melding in everyone else affairs why not theirs too? Just makes the war for oil argument that much more plausible.

Watching the massive amount of news coverage surrounding North Korea here in Europe at the moment and listening to the threats that have been emanating from the US towards NK for the past few months..

I just wanted to point out to people that this is very likely to be propaganda emanating from the US/EU led westernized countries.. who as we all know, at the moment, run the world. This could be for a number of reasons.. the most likely in my book is to create a tighter Global network or allies and economic partners and create another war in order to continue westernizing the world... Killing two birds with one stone by forging stronger alliances and wiping out opposition.

Yup, I was in fact thinking about this today. I suppose the next thing we'll hear is the usual rant about "weapons of mass destruction" and a lame reason as to why "we" (which tend to involve a largeish number of western countries) just so definitely has to go into NK at this very moment.

On the other hand NK doesn't have oil, energy or any other valuable natural resource making it far less likely to happen.

Finally, someone with a bit of sense in this thread lol

While the North Korean regime is amongst the worlds worst.. We.. ie. "The West" have been provoking it for the past year.. especially the US. Their reaction just shows how crazy they are.
