“North Korea has long supported Palestinian militant groups, and North Korean arms have previously been documented amongst interdicted supplies,” Jenzen-Jones told the AP.

The imperium of Ham

[-] ClimateChangeAnxiety@hexbear.net 80 points 11 months ago

If true, dope. Seems like the kind of thing they’d make up to throw in another Official Enemy™ though. Were Al Qaeda, Cuba, and Venezuela also supplying them with weapons?

[-] zifnab25@hexbear.net 39 points 11 months ago

Was NK ever not an official enemy?

This feels more like Greatest Hits Enemies. Fully waiting for them to claim the Barbary Pirates were in on it, too.

Evidence Shows Hamas May Have Acquired Weapons From Balkan Guys In Big Fur Coats-APNews

[-] GriffithDidNothingWrong@hexbear.net 29 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Yeah, likely just more "Axis of Evil™️" bullshit. Hamas has much easier and more accessible places to get weapons from, and I wouldn't take South Korea's word for something like this

[-] AssortedBiscuits@hexbear.net 12 points 11 months ago

The DPRK gave a bunch of weapons to China, who gave a bunch of weapons to Iran, who gave a bunch of weapons to Hezbollah, who gave a bunch of weapons to Hamas, so by the transitive property, the DPRK gave a bunch of weapons to Hamas.

Weren't DPRK-made RPG warheads seen in action a couple weeks ago? I'm not sure what the chain of custody is like, but I wasn't previously aware that their weapons were in circulation like old Soviet or Chinese stock

Why yes, his legs do look like WTC

[-] supafuzz@hexbear.net 59 points 11 months ago

Good start. But give Hamas a nuke, Kim

[-] nat_turner_overdrive@hexbear.net 47 points 11 months ago

how sick would it be if DPRK just announced they had already given one of their diesel electric nuclear subs to Hamas

[-] supafuzz@hexbear.net 34 points 11 months ago

headlines from a better timeline

[-] Aria@lemmygrad.ml 52 points 11 months ago

Thank you, people of Korea.

uncritical support for the DPRK in its heroic struggle to liberate occupied Korea from the genocidal American empire

[-] SpiderFarmer@hexbear.net 48 points 11 months ago

Based if True.

[-] Lerios@hexbear.net 46 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

my support of the dprk is no longer critical. and ngl i'm starting to think that that realisation should have happened a long time ago kim-salute

[-] CommCat@hexbear.net 41 points 11 months ago

No wonder there as a video on RT (odysee) with pro-Palestinian protestors holding up giant posters of Putin and Kim. Putin I can understand, but the DPRK doesn't exactly have much geopolitical influence. Makes sense now. The Resistance from all corners should unite against Imperialism.

[-] Chapo_is_Red@hexbear.net 48 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

For real, DPRK is one of the only countries that flatly rejects a two state solution.

[-] Kaplya@hexbear.net 20 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

You need to listen to this song to understand the Palestinian view of the geopolitics today (someone posted it in the megathread yesterday). Every key players are mentioned there: Russia, Ukraine, US, Israel, China, DPRK, Iran, Syria etc.

[-] PortugueseDragon@hexbear.net 14 points 11 months ago

The chorus of that song is not good with the reference to banishing Ukrainians and marrying Ukrainian women but the rest of it is a pretty good geopolitical song from the perspective of Palestine.

[-] dead@hexbear.net 9 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

This past week, some Russian officials met with Kim Jong Un for negotiations. The Russian official were Sergei Lavrov, Andrei Rudenko, and Alexandr Matsegora.

"(Kim Jong Un) expressed the steadfast stand of the WPK and the DPRK government to work out a stable, forward-looking, far-reaching plan for the DPRK-Russia relations in the new era by faithfully implementing the agreements made at the DPRK-Russia summit, and to promote the well-being of the peoples of the two countries and push forward with the cause of building a powerful state by dint of the said plan."

KCNA.kp is a news agency owned by DPRK and hosted in Pyongyang.

if true then kim-salute

To use on what? It's their homes that their enemies are occupying.

I guess a few on antiship missiles to sink US aircraft carriers couldn't hurt.

[-] Guillotine_Erotica@hexbear.net 26 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

In Europe, local districts is encouraged to project Israeli flags on town halls, Google and Meta just pulled our of the web summit due to an organizer saying that "war crimes are war crimes, even if they are committed by an allies".

The propaganda is so thick you can taste the blood.

I wonder how many people really see through it or disagrees

[-] Coca_Cola_but_Commie@hexbear.net 23 points 11 months ago

Beware! The men of the East fight with cursed swords of black steel wrought in the very fires of Mordor!

[-] GalaxyBrain@hexbear.net 7 points 11 months ago

Obligatory point out that in other middle earth material its shown that Men of the East aren't just inherently evil. They were colonized by Numenoreans who worshipped Morgoth, that's why Aragorn let's them free after they fix up some walls they busted and stuff. It's also pretty likely that it was lparticular easterlings and sauthrons from certain states in the region, not like a total takeover.

[-] GarbageShoot@hexbear.net 20 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Fuckin' sick

Except that the liberal press might be trying to drum up a Korea War 2 support . . .

[-] SoyViking@hexbear.net 13 points 11 months ago

Luckily Korea has nukes now.
