Yeah, cause pretty much every adult male who can draw breath and walk 100 yards is counted in those figures. Numbers, even huge numbers, do not a threat make. Remember the leader of Iraq (Curiously, the filters zap his name. Weird) and his four-and-a-half million man army? Beat by an effective force less than a fifth it's size. IOW: Numbers: Yawn.


Sources for the figures are all there, if you want to challenge those. The changes since i last checked could be updates.

Iran very likely could be faking things, because they have a history of photoshop use, but who knows. NK on the other hand actually does have pretty much every grown male in their military, so they wouldn't even have to count civilians to reach those numbers.

So, did you note that 3 and a half milion are the "Worker-Peasant Red Guard?" So - The numbers are swelled by 3 and a half millino farmers. Yeah. Farmer != Soldier. The other numbers are equally inflated by including every male who ever underwent military training as a reservist, no matter how long ago they were trained, and no matter who inept that training.
NOT impressive. Nor effective.

Again; Numbers: Yawn.

Tell someone you love them today, because life is short. But scream it at them in Esperanto, because life is also terrifying and confusing.

Activision is based in North Korea apparently and they don't like us relating them to North Korea (which is the best Korea)P

It turns out the footage of a devastated New York is from Modern Warfare 3. Lol

So that explains the copyright claim.

My bad, that wasn't the right video. It appears that multiple sites linked themselves to the same video and nobody got around to uploading it to something not youtube.

Here's another site that describes the video while its playing but it doesn't have MJ's we are the world soundtrack on it.

Activision had it shut down because it seems they ripped the burning New York scene from COD

Kim Jong-un is supposedly a big console gamer. Can you imagine the average x-box kid given a military with nuclear capabilities to do with as he pleases? Shocked

Now that i've read the translation, they'd have to be pretty stupid to show their hand and talk like that if they plan on waiting awhile. If they truly intend to do something, it should happen soon.
