North Korea releases another propaganda video, this one with Obama in flames

Quote:
Just when you thought North Korean propaganda videos could get no crazier, the country’s official news agency Uriminzokkiri has posted a video that reaches new heights of absurdity and bombast. This latest production, flagged by the invaluable NK News, champions the recent nuclear test and repeats the prior video’s obsessive focus on the United States.

The video is simple: text, berating the United States and bragging about North Korea’s latest nuclear test, appears over CGI-flame-covered video clips of American troops and of President Obama. It ends with a CGI simulation of the nuclear test, which NK News thinks might actually be stolen from a foreign news organization (if you look closely, you can see blurred out squares in the upper corners, possibly covering the network logos).

Sick propaganda.

North Korea should be very careful on what they say and do. Not even China is on their side anymore.

Ya does't want to PO your closest friends when you get yourself in a bind and backed into a corner. "One is the loneliest number...."

I started a thread on the craziness going on in Korea.

Someone in Korea apparently needs attention.

I almost thought it was fake. The music was off (just read it was stolen from Skyrim), and the images of US troops seemed strange for NK Propaganda. Normally they like to show drawings of US troops from the 1950's as baby eating devils while these photos show them looking better equipped than the North Korean Army.

But going by that last video they released that featured cgi stolen from a CoD/MoH game the DPRK is just letting propaganda department go wild.

Wow...

Looks like we must bow down to the all powerful and superior DPRK. We can't even touch that kind of tech.

They obviously would just STEAMROLL us in a war.

These people....and their jokes....When will NK ever learn?

You know, this propaganda isn't all that surprising. I mean, we are still at war with NK.

All we did was sign a cease-fire and quit shooting.

We're still over there.....still waiting for them to cross the line so we have an excuse to finally finish them.

Haha...I saw a really good WW1 movie about the Aussies one time.

Beneath Hill 60

Look it up. Those guys most certainly did not rush home to put "shrimps" on the barbie.
