It's bonkers to think that most of the populations of the known world can be duped by game players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rayvin 4964 Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 Unidentified missile heading eastwards from NK. I wonder how far east it has to go before the US can shoot it down and claim it was heading for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfy 12 Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 A question you need to ask is, how can a missile actually go that far. If is doesn't have wings and fly like a plane then it has to act like an arrow to reach distance. This means it has to lift off and immediately start arcing, then carry enough fuel to enable it to reach a distant target. ICBM's are basically nonsense. Scare tactics. Ballistic missiles are real but there's no such thing as nukes in them.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

North Korean's just really hate the Pacific sea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayatollah Hermione 12774 Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 Funnily enough, I'm reading through Nothing to Envy, which, I think, Ant recommended and it's well worth a read if you're interested in what actually happens/ed through the 90s to get them to this point. It frames it with a human interest angle so it's not some dry history textbook but the author talks about how it's completely disorienting at night since even the 'ambient' light you take for granted at home (lamp posts, headlights, shop signs etc) are completely gone so there's no way to actually tell where you are. Also, they make young men sign agreements IN BLOOD that they'll fight for North Korea, if there's ever a war Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not by blood, but by swearing allegiance to the Party and not the state. It is fucked up and complicated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Read it first. I can't do it. I know enough of the country over many years of analysing. North Korea is the Soviet Union of post WW2. Unforgiving.
