North Korea.

I have read some strange and whacky ideas on RUA, but this might be the winner for this year.

You DO remember Ukraine declared itself nuclear non-aligned - having the 3rd largest stock of Nukes in '91 ?

But it was OK - a few Nuked up nations said that they would project her integrity ...

That worked out well for them ........

Avhdb, please take more care. When you write it is convenient to make sure that you do not contradict yourself. (at least you did not pull the specious call to authority trick again)

As you pointed out, when trying to disagree with me, there is an armistice and the Koreans are not at war.

It is not the Koreans winding up the bellicosity.

Time to sleep it off old boy. The liver is less effective as one reaches early old age.

Time to evacuate.  It will be all over soon!

Prepare for what comes next

I don’t think we will survive another 1,000 years without escaping beyond our fragile planet

I think the development of full artificial intelligence could spell the end of the human race

The armistice is a temporary cease fire and north Korea consider itself the only real government of the one Korea. This is about like the eastern Ukraine except with nuclear weapons and medium range missiles. I guess you would not call that a war neither would you. There is a ceasefire there also.

North Korea calls John Bolton a “defective human”.

Kim Jong Un also said Biden was a "low IQ" person, so they have equal opportunity insults there.   

Saw the video program "Korea: the never ending war".  When the Japanese got booted out at the end of WW 2, they divided up the country just like Berlin.  Funny, when one group tries to take control of the whole map and then when you kick them out, all of the subjugated then emerge to take over the power vacuum.  However, they have to rely on the victors to try to get the upper hand over the other competing factions.  Three terms come out from that period.
38th parallel - let's just put a boundary line here.
Pusan perimeter - North Korea nearly takes over the entire peninsula
Landing at Inchon - a highly questionable offensive to cut the invading forces off from behind

I would NOT risk that! You’re a family man with others relying on you.

Unless the U.S starts dropping bombs on North Korea I am sure he will be perfectly safe - he won't do daft stuff like taking posters for souvenirs!

You don’t know too much about N. Korean military training do you?

They’d quickly beat the phock out of you, then you’d be another Otto Warmbier and leave in a coma, if you even left at all.

Bruce Lee famously said “boards don’t hit back”.

In your case you wouldn’t be hitting back either, after they pulverized you.

Yeah but I think it is a good idea.. 

They never did the job properly ... If that rule was applied to everyone life would be much better.. for a start the population would be halved and secondly everyone else would be doing their job as they are supposed to be doing..  nice one..

[andrewfi]

A word to the wise, manny and steve: don't go accepting jobs as advisors or negotiators for the DPRK.

On the basis that such an opportunity is unlikely to be presented, one can infer that one is pretty safe in North Korea.

[Steveboy]

What I don't understand is these people who work for him in one way or another..

If I was one of these guys and I knew I **** up a job I certainly wouldn't be going home to drink tea..I would of packed my bags and got out of there, in fact I would of had a contingency plan even before I started the job..

I like the idea of the hard labour camps though, it is some thing the UK needs , I know thousands already that 3 years hard labour would give a totally different view on life..

It would also be a good way to deter petty criminals , at the moment they just go to holiday camps!!

N Korea has its good points!

There is actually quite a large and vibrant tourist industry that has sprung up. Departures are from Vladivostok or Beijing. I’m researching at the moment and will probably do it as a side trip while in China in a few months.

I’m thinking of maybe five days, quite a few firms do interesting trips. Starvation not required.

Look at the #NorthKorea on Instagram and it looks like the world and his wife are there already. Its heaving with Russians.

As with Russia or China, North Korea is no different in the respect that if you don’t do silly things nothing bad happens. With the propaganda that Americans are fed, I can see why it might be an eye-opening prospect for some over the pond.

This killing of advisors is a common trope used by propagandists. The idea feeds into the dehumanisation and demonisation of opponents - essential if one is to enable the sheeple to hate and fight the supposed enemy. The problem is that whilst there may be some basis in truth, that is, somebody might've been executed, at some time in the past, too many of the 'executed' turn up fresh as a daisy and bright as a button at some point after their supposed forced leap off this mortal coil.

I should think there is! Auschwitz is pretty popular now with the tourists they do plenty of tours around the place, and the prisoners are all dead.. so not really much to see..

You get a better deal in North Korea , they do tours of live and working concentration and labour camps where you can actually see REAL ALIVE starving people with a few executions chucked in..

They even have a feeding time just like at the zoo , and for a few $ you can chuck cabbages in for the prisoners..

What's a proper job? Make no deal and get executed. Make a deal with Trump, give up too much, and get executed.

If you worked for somebody and they killed you because your work performance was unsatisfactory, you don't want us to believe they are a bad person? When's the last time anybody seen Un's uncle?
