South Korea Drops Leaflets, Radios, Food, other things into North Korean Territory - Polidicks

[QUOTE=BCell;28276401]Let's hope this start a revolution in North Korea! Viva Revolucion![/QUOTE] You know, for some reason, I think a revolution in NK succeeding is near impossible.

[QUOTE=BloodYScar;28276279]Imagine being that guy... THIS is what life is about. Make yourself a legend. Must have hurt, but now that he is dead, depending on your believe, he is in a better place. This guy will never die, his legend will live forever.[/QUOTE] No good making yourself a legend if you aren't there to see it.

[QUOTE=carcarcargo;28278123]No good making yourself a legend if you aren't there to see it.[/QUOTE] That guy died a nobler death than most people ever will. His death was one of the few deaths that will leave a long lasting impact and that will have even mattered in any way. He's inadvertently saved MILLIONS of people from terrible living conditions under strict and violent dictators. Whether you're there or not to see the outcome doesn't even matter in the end, because what he did resulted in good things happening (freedom): his legacy will live on, and he won't be forgotten for what he started.

[QUOTE=Xolo;28273107]This is a pretty good approach. The North look like assholes if they get mad at another country giving its residents food and medicine (though they'll probably engineer lies about [/b]how there were bombs also being dropped or something equally outrageous[/b])[/QUOTE] reminds me of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, quite the opposite from this one :v: [b]offtopic[/b] why don't we have all our nukes aimed to space instead?

[QUOTE=carcarcargo;28278283]That man died because a woman repossessed his stuff rather than a man, he doesn't deserve the praise hes getting.[/QUOTE] It doesn't matter what his intentions were, his actions still inadvertently caused these protests. Had HE not self immolated himself Tunisia and Egypt would still most likely be under the oppressive totalitarian regimes they were 'governed' by, and Libya wouldn't be on its way to destroying its own.

[QUOTE=Magick;28276456]North Korean citizens are too brainwashed to consider rising up and revolting. I doubt some food and information on other countries' revolts is going to do much. But props to SK for trying to help in a friendly manner.[/QUOTE] never mind the fact that NK citizens are doing just that, right now

[QUOTE=FunnyBunny;28273130]Wait what how did SK get planes above NK? I thought NK had AA batteries all over the place ready to gun down anyone that entered their airspace[/QUOTE] NK doesn't have running water.

[QUOTE=ToXiCsoldier;28273024]I think this global wide revolution is going into the history books of our kids.[/QUOTE] kids? :v:

[QUOTE=Matrix374;28281660]kids? :v:[/QUOTE] :frown: I got the joke

[QUOTE=cjone2;28275433]Wouldn't they think the radios came from an advanced alien civilisation[/QUOTE] [img]http://28.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lbk2w0A6Hh1qbh2xjo1_500.jpg[/img]

In an interview with a woman who lived in North Korea she said they were told not to pick up leaflets because they were covered in acid, and their hands would be burned. And people there are brainwashed enough to believe it :frown:

[QUOTE=Tac Error;28274672]From the article:[/QUOTE]Ah, my bad. People kept repeating planes planes planes, so I figured it must've been planes :v:

[quote]think about change, conservative South Korean parliament member Song Young-sun[/quote] Quite funny. Liberals are those who want change, however this South Korean member claims she is a conservative? Someone who doesn't want change? Interesting.

Best Korea should drops bombs as thanks.

[QUOTE=redBadger;28286786]Quite funny. Liberals are those who want change, however this South Korean member claims she is a conservative? Someone who doesn't want change? Interesting.[/QUOTE] it's politics everything is always backwards except when it isn't

I believe if you fly high enough you can avoid AA coverage. These were probably dropped from very high altitude. [editline]26th February 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=The mouse;28275180]Arn't AA guns useless against jets because the jets are moving faster than the shells :v:[/QUOTE] Doesn't have much to do with the speed of the rounds. If you lead your target properly the rounds will still hit.

[QUOTE=hypno-toad;28293104]I believe if you fly high enough you can avoid AA coverage. These were probably dropped from very high altitude.[/QUOTE] Maybe read the article? They were sent over the border in balloons with lightweight baskets, the balloons drop or slowly descend after a fixed period of time and drop on Northern territory.

[QUOTE=Zezibesh;28293138]Maybe read the article?

Thought it meant that they dropped them [I]with[/I] balloons (to stop them from crashing to the ground) dropping food items from 30,000 feet would probably be a tad dangerous. Must have been a bitch to direct hundreds of baloons like that.

soon the world will be under 1 rule. I dont know if this is good or bad (no islamic rule i hope.)

[QUOTE=MacD11;28293349]soon the world will be under 1 rule. I dont know if this is good or bad (no islamic rule i hope.)[/QUOTE] what how is this even related? And no it won't by the way.

How did they do it?

[QUOTE=FunnyBunny;28273130]Wait what how did SK get planes above NK?

Crying shame they don't have enough healthy workers to manufacture ammo for them...

[QUOTE=Magick;28276456]North Korean citizens are too brainwashed to consider rising up and revolting. I doubt some food and information on other countries' revolts is going to do much.

Guess what, food propaganda

If some civilians in NK were to revolt, I am sure that the soldiers would just gun down those civilians.

[QUOTE=WarRocker32;28295528]If some civilians in NK were to revolt, I am sure that the soldiers would just gun down those civilians.[/QUOTE] Not all the soldiers are brainwashed and believe their leader is great. A lot join in fear. If enough of them banded together then people would find it easy to revolt.
