North Korea issues threat over joint US-South Korea military drills
2021-08-12
[NYPOST] North Korea
...hereditary Communist monarchy distinguished by its truculence and periodic acts of violence. Distinguishing features include Songun (Army First) policy, which involves feeding the army before anyone but the Dear Leadership, and Juche, which is Kim Jong Il's personal interpretation of Marxism-Leninism, which he told everybody was brilliant. In 1950 the industrialized North invaded agrarian South Korea. Twenty-one countries of the United Nations eventually contributed to the UN force opposing the invasion, with the United States providing around 90% of the military personnel. Seventy years later the economic results are in and it doesn't look good for Juche...
on Wednesday threatened to respond to US-South Korean military drill it claims are an invasion rehearsal.Senior North Korean official Kim Yong Chol condemned South Korea for continuing the allied drills and warned of unspecified counteractions that would make Seoul "realize by the minute" that it had waded into a security crisis.

His statement comes a day after Kim Yo Jong — the powerful sister of leader Kim Pudge Jong-un
...the overweight, pouty-looking hereditary potentate of North Korea. Pudge appears to believe in his own divinity, but has yet to produce any loaves and fishes, so his subjects remain malnourished...
— said the drills were the "most vivid expression of the US hostile policy" toward North Korea, adding that Pyongyang will work faster to strengthen its preemptive strike capabilities.

She called Seoul authorities "perfidious" over the South’s joint military exercises and demanded Washington withdraw its forces from the peninsula.

"For peace to settle on the peninsula, it is imperative for the US to withdraw its aggression troops and war hardware deployed in South Korea," she said.

The US and South Korea have not confirmed when the drills will take place, but local media have reported preliminary training was underway this week to set up larger computer-simulated drills from Aug. 16 to Aug. 26.

North Korea has such issues threats and has for over 50+ years.

As the NK serfdom crumbles and starves, it needs to spew Panic and Hype to keep the growing population in line.

NK communism is basically no more than a modernized Joseon period King/Ruler down to dirt workers type hierarchy.
They are just using new titles and applying the same class structure that controlled a persons life or death without question.
