North Korea has kept to itself for something like 70 fucking years and still people are utterly terrified that they'll leap across the border and do Evil Communist things the moment South Korea's back is turned

The bootlickers and US army engage on military provocations every year by doing military exercises yards away from the borders, they fly bombers directly to NK and make them turn away at the last possible moment, every year there is a chance something happens so they have to manufacture consent through these stupid articles so when it happens they can parrot the usual "X attacked without provocation".
And it works, the average clueless liberal completely believes that NK are warmongers.
North Korea has kept to itself for something like 70 fucking years
I have to assume you're mistaken, because we get a new "North Korea Hackers Infiltrating Bitcoin!", "North Korea Launches Kryptonite tipped missile directly at Japan but accidentally misses!", and "North Korea Potemkin Grocery Store Selling Fentanyl Transgender Candy With Razor Blades In It" news articles every few weeks.
back in the 60s and 70s things were more intense, DPRK has dug tunnels under the DMZ and there have been some cross-border incidents such as the Blue House Raid
but yeah it's been quiet since the 90s and the Arduous March as far as I know
uncritical support for the DPRK in its heroic struggle to liberate occupied Korea from the genocidal American empire
what makes an attack "Hamas-style"?
paragliders????
Hamas-style™ now is the official brand name for sneak attack. The imperial Japanese navy conducted an Hamas-style attack on pearl harbor. Reports of an hamas-style attack against the roman legions in Teutoburg Forest. That fake punt was an Hamas-style play.
Oppa hamas style!
Dancing intensifies
'Taiwan' fears Hamas-style attack from the west.
juche paraglider gang let's go
This led me down a rabbit hole of seeing if there's any strains of Islam in DPRK and sure enough, there is a Shia mosque on the grounds of the Iranian embassy that hosts Friday prayers, Eid celebrations, etc for anyone interested.
Located within the grounds of the Iranian embassy in Pyongyang, the Rahman Mosque was established in 1985, according to a sign posted on the outside of the building. Iran, a predominately Shia Muslim country, originally built the mosque at its North Korea embassy compound for staff-only use. But today, Muslims of all faiths can attend services at the Rahman Mosque, and the site is a key pillar of the Islamic community in Pyongyang
pretty neat
The Hamas style attack will be in retaliation for the Gangnam Style incursion of 2012.
PSY is short for PSYOP because he tricked the westerners into thinking he’s just a viral pop singer. He’s in fact a high ranking Juche sleeper agent who almost got caught early in his career. He played us like a damn fiddle
They've had it coming.
But how real are these fears?
Not at all real
Probably a good idea to call off any planned BTS concerts in the DMZ for the time being.
North Korea fears Israeli-style indiscriminate bombing campaign against civilian infrastructure (again)
Maybe...just maybe Isn't Real's unchecked genocidal tantrums is "complicating" things for those who are complicit with said genocidal tantrums?
SHUTUPSHUTUPSHUTUP OH MY FUCKING GOD!
They have to play this word association game so that they can re-use their old propaganda to transfer negative feelings to [insert current enemy]

2086 Presidential Debates:
"First off, I would like to begin by denouncing my opponent for his ties to North-Korean style Satanic Fentanyl Cartels smuggling Migrants across the borders to enact their Putinist-Communist Islamic Radical Feminism in the hopes that every woman in the U-nited STates will have a spontaneous abortion so they can use the confusion to take our guns away. I yield the rest of my time. "
"I have never, nor will I ever be, a part of NKSFCMPCIRF. My friend across the aisle here, who I often see privately on his estate in Texas for drinks, is simply trying to smear my good name. In fact, my fellow Democratic congressmen recently approved funding for an array of autonomous hunter-killer drones to patrol the borders and inner cities for evidence of uncouth and uncivil behavior, which we all know is grounds for the immediate execution of any low-income offender. My hope is that we can perhaps work together on larger issues like the giant sinkhole that has opened up in the middle of the US, and is currently threatening the tectonic stability -"
"HORSE SHIT! There's no dang evidence of any pot hole, look I'll call my sister in Nebraska right now, you'll see."
"I completely concede my point, you're absolutely right sir. Please take my wife too."
"we already have this bogeyman, how can we make it explicitly anticommunist?"
What’s the demographics of the people who live on the South Korean border of the DMz?
Is it rich freaks, or is that where they shove poor and marginalized people?
Seoul is actually pretty close to the DMZ. Plenty of rich folks there. If shit really kicked off the city could be obliterated by artillery pretty quickly. Not sure why DPRK would need to do “Hamas style attacks” when they could just do that instead.
I think hamas style is a placeholder for “justified counterattack against aggression” that makes it sound like a bad thing?
Maybe because there are nearly 10 million people in Seoul and the wholesale bombardment of them would result in massive civilian casualties that would rightfully be condemned as a crime against humanity?
Well, yeah. Point was more just that there is no need for insurgent/Guerilla tactics when you have a massive conventional force dug in within shooting distance of a bunch critical potential targets.
Yeah but when you imagine that the WPK is basically Korean Hamas, what does your boogeyman care for civilian casualties?
Sounds like South Korea needs to stop using the people of Seoul as human shields.
Gaza fears Hamas-style attack from the east.
Yoon Sukyeol just wants his turn with the USA military aid pay piggy too
Sounds like South Korea needs to cool it with the anti-semitism
Ok start a war with North Korea then, see how well that works out for you
Actually please don't because I'm not enthusiastic about the 25M NKorean civilians who will be targeted for an aerial bombardment genocide.
What the fuck would they get out of it, geniuses
