The law includes a provision that requires the DPRK’s military to automatically execute nuclear strikes against enemy forces if its leadership comes under attack.

“The purpose of the United States is not only to remove our nuclear might itself, but eventually forcing us to surrender or weaken our rights to self-defense through giving up our nukes, so that they could collapse our government at any time,” Kim Jong Un said in the speech published by the DPRK’s official Korean Central News Agency.

    lol the propaganda in the article about them starting COVID-19 vaccination. So ridiculous

    He didn’t specify how many doses it would have, where they would come from, or how they would be administered across his population of 26 million people.

    Uhhhh... China? And 26 million people is not that many, and it's not hard to distribute a vaccine. Such lame wording. Salty is a fantastic way to describe it.

    Kim last month declared victory over COVID-19 and ordered preventive measures eased just three months after his government for the first time acknowledged an outbreak. Experts believe the North’s disclosures on its outbreak are manipulated to help Kim maintain absolute control.

    I don't think I've seen a sentence so heavy handed in my entire life.

    The entire article is like being hit over the head with a hammer 20 times a minute.

    Can't even find any info about the author. Other than his twitter account saying he's in Seoul.
