I'm sorry but who in their right mind would want to spend their holiday in North-Korea?
This is really serious now...
Not sure if legit, but

Apparently the article is from the 1950's, so... yeah.

Or maybe not...?
"Using B-52 bombers and now B2A bombers."
Do they think we'd use bombers if we were going to nuke them? Cruise missiles are far more likely.
I feel like I shouldn't be laughing at this. He is a very unstable person. It is true that his attacks will be like a water balloon fight, but just the concept that he is willing to use nuclear weapons on short range targets is somewhat worrying.
Not much of a war, more like a slaughter.

We could still use both to bomb them. Their anti-air is hilarious.

Wait, it doesn't really look too legit at all.
I would be great if we could read the article.

Why is this not breaking news on the front page?

It's hard to tell, since the New York Times does block some articles from being viewed for free, and so you can only view the abstract.
[QUOTE=Timebomb575;40087067]Why is this not breaking news on the front page?[/QUOTE]
Of every news site.
It says "Article Preview".
I am not sure what it is but it looks rather abnormal.

Well, we can only wait and see for now.

As I said, the New York Times does sometimes do that with 'premium' articles, but I can't imagine such an immediate and important story would be classified like that.

I don't. My friend sent that to me.
Imagine if the Chinese and Russians had secretly sold them kickass super high tech nukes for a laugh and we're all sat here expecting nothing but a couple of cherry bombs.
I'm going to go find someone with an NYT account. I absolutely hate that they did that to their website. I actually read the New York Times occasionally.

Well most of the FP still pretends that all NK has are wooden sticks for guns in terms of equipment, because hey, making fun of NK is so hilarious and is apparently unable to harm anyone.

Report back as soon as you can, that's really chilling.
[QUOTE=entertainer89;40087089]Imagine if the Chinese and Russians had secretly sold them kickass super high tech nukes for a laugh and we're all sat here expecting nothing but a couple of cherry bombs.[/QUOTE]and just what would China and Russia gain from that? well sure they could get some profit from selling the nukes, but apart from that?
[QUOTE=Joazzz;40087117]and just what would China and Russia gain from that?[/QUOTE]
money

This is why we're the only few who take them seriously. There's a lot more going on in NK than just shitty technology. They very well could be in coalition with someone else. US Intelligence has plenty of holes, especially when it comes to spying on a country that doesn't like being even glanced at.
I'm guessing the article might be from the Korean war.
Calm your tits, it's apparently a story back from [I]THAT[/I] Korean war.
38th parallel was a pre-war border.

And it's not like China hasn't been giving NK modern anti-air missiles and weapon systems among other things, because they need NK to have atleast a good deterent against steamroll invasions.
