KCNA: A Twofer - It's about Pre-Emption, Stupid
2004-08-23
via KCNA. Two articles which, if mind-melded together, paint a stark picture of shameless and naked US aggression and plans of Pre-Emptive War on the Peaceful Peoples of NorKieLand. But then you prolly already knew that.
Scoring optional.

U.S. Accused of Increasing Danger of War
Pyongyang, August 22 (KCNA) -- The United States is contemplating the deployment of an Alaska-based squadron of F-15E fighters of the U.S. Air Force in south Korea in the near future. Minju Joson Sunday in a signed commentary carried in this connection brands the projected U.S. deployment of fighters as a dangerous move for arms buildup to invade the DPRK as it is aimed to mount a surprise preemptive strike at it by use of ultra-modern weapons.

Recently the U.S. worked out what it called the "operation plan 5027-04", a new scenario to invade the DPRK, the commentary says, and goes on: The arms buildup pursuant to the U.S. strategy for a war against the DPRK is designed to bolster up the naval and air forces with ultra-modern combat equipment in a bid to further increase the capacity to invade the DPRK through long-range preemptive strike, while reducing the ground forces. The U.S. planned deployment of more fighters is a challenge to the Korean nation desirous of peace and security on the Korean peninsula.

#19  Notice, Rantburgers, that there is no more piss and vinegar, fire and brimstone in KCNA rants. *sniff* They must still have fire and brimstone in stock, but they are plumb out of piss and vinegar. Not having much of an apple crop will hurt vinegar production.

#18  I'm disappointed as well. Started promising with "recklessly ignite a war against the DPRK" and then no "sea of fire"

Lame. No grass on Friday.

#16  The thing about the norks is that they are like a coal fire underground in Centralia. Just keeps on smouldering.

#11  OPLAN 5027-04:

OPLAN 5027 is the US-ROK Combined Forces Command basic warplan. Scroll down for different versions of 5027 throughout history, down to 04.

#10  It's missing key ingredients, needs salt and is way undercooked.

#9  OK we won't use 5027-04.

Instead we'll unleash species 8472.

#8  Operation Plan 5027-04

Curses! They found the Secret Plan™! Back to the drawing board. [*brainfart*] I know! We'll keep the same plan, justchange the number and put it back in a Secret Place™. That will keep them stumped for a while.[/*brainfart*]

#6  The NorKie version of the "standing head". If you read KCNA everyday, it's in there. Every day.
They mail these in.

#5  Lame, lame, lame. Only 2 good bits:
the U.S. worked out what it called the "operation plan 5027-04" LOL
The DPRK has powerful Songun armed forces
Overall, I give it a 1.5 (the old writers must have choked on the grass and dirt diet).

#4  Well, at least we got some songun and U.S. imperialists. But there is a complete lack of enthusiasm. Maybe a 6? I wonder if the poor diet is finaly catching up with the agit-prop crew?

#3  The tricksy hobbitze wish to take the precious.

Isn't it diabolicle the way we bolster our invasion force of 30K soldiers by removing a third of them.

#2  Why do we have to go to the KCNA to get upbeat news like this? There's never any good news in the MSM.
