N Korea 'combat posture to hit US'

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).

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...."

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.

Glorious People's Republic of Korea is far more advanced than your puny imperialist nations. Behold the latest invention of Brilliant Comrade Kim Jong Un:

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?

More sabre rattling or a very real death wish?

North Korea says it has ordered artillery and rocket units into "combat posture" to prepare to target US bases in Hawaii, Guam and the US mainland.
The announcement, carried by KCNA news agency, follows days of strong rhetoric from Pyongyang.

The joke thread is thataway >

Maybe...maybe not.

The 'joker' may decide not to joke any longer and set off a few firecrackers over the DMZ at Seoul....the south may well respond and a nasty escalation may ensue.

How many weeks is it now that EVERY SINGLE DAY new threats come flying down the wires from the North?

'lil fat man seems he cannot bear it to open a newspaper in the morning without His Northern Gloriousness being mentioned on page one. It's his way to participate in events on the big wide shiny global stage.

Maybe somebody should send him a book on yoga excercises, he seems to have an ego in cramps.

Have just been hearing an expert to asia talking about this crisis

He said that this rhetoric is something different from the usual thing they use to do. Mostly they are pointing their rhetoric against South and USA in combination.

Is it just one of their usual big-in-mouth-schedule, or??

Still, it makes a welcome change from the numerous gun/second amendment/Obama is going to put us all into FEMA death camps conspiracy threads.

South Korea is a different matter, and always quite serious. The joke I read was about hitting Guam, Hawaii, and the US mainland.
