But despite reports that they were already involved in fighting, western officials believe that they are yet to have been sent into battle.
“We say due to poor training and lack of logistical support as the primary reasons why DPRK haven’t started the fight yet,” said one official.
The people who were clamoring about North Korean soldiers getting absolutely slaughtered by Ukraine are the same people who repost stories about North Koreans getting executed for not having Kim’s haircut. In the same breath, they’ll cast North Korea as an ultra-propagandized state, and then quote a Radio Free Asia article about how North Koreans are getting bombed out the ass by the Ghost of Kiev.
It’s literally happening in this thread’s comment section. Instead of reconciling how they’ve been duped for the past months about North Korean soldiers fighting in Ukraine, they’ve dug in deeper and started to parrot points about “North Koreans got addicted to masturbation once they reached Russia” - a point which the pentagon has emphatically claimed as unverified and possibly unverifiable. Absolutely no introspection from these people after having been duped by Ukraine’s bonkers “intelligence”.
These people never asked themselves “Huh, why is it that for the last few months I’ve been able to attain 1080p drone footage of Russian soldiers getting grenaded - with so much clarity I can make out the stubble on their faces - yet there has not been a single image of a North Korean casualty?” Whatever Radio Free Asia says is gospel to these people, I suppose.
You were saying?
The North Korean troops are expected to be used to reinforce Putin’s military seeking to recapture a swathe of the Kursk region of Russia which was seized by Ukrainian forces in a surprise attack in the summer.
But despite reports that they were already involved in fighting, western officials believe that they are yet to have been sent into battle.
Dog, if you find yourself using radio free Asia as a source, take a step back and realize you’re spewing bullshit.
Claiming that South Korean politics are subordinate to American politics isn’t exactly unfair…
To this day, the US maintains a military presence on the DMZ, the zone separating the borders of the two countries. Twice a year, they conduct a mock invasion of the north with the ROK Army. The Republic of Korea’s army is copied from the US structure and was created by the US military occupation: they have four-star generals, they have a Joint Chiefs of Staff of the Republic of Korea (versus a Joints Chiefs of Staff of the United States of America). It shouldn’t come as a surprise: their military was created wholepiece in 1945 by the US presence in Korea. The South Korean equivalent of the CIA was named, you guessed it, the KCIA (now the National Intelligence Service).
More notably, ROK Forces obey the US officers present in Korea through the CFC, the Combined Forces Command. This is the only country in the world which is under this arrangement. While the CFC has changed its mandate a little bit in the past few years, it still states that in case of war involving the Republic of Korea, the US Army will take over command of the Korean forces. A state that has no agency over its military cannot be said to be a sovereign state.
A picture of soldiers training, a picture of a flag, and an extremely blurry video from radio free Asia.
For months, we’ve been watching 1080p footage of drones dropping bombs on Russians. The footage is so clear and plentiful that you can make our individual soldiers’ stubble. Why is it that there is a complete lack of any sort of evidence like this for North Korean soldiers. Why arent there images of North Korean casualties? Ukraine has chomped at the bit to publish any Russian losses - Why would they suddenly stop for North korean losses?
So I’ve heard. Is there any evidence of this? A single picture even?
Is there a single picture or piece of evidence that points to DPRK soldiers in Ukraine?
You’re out of your depth here… Those reasons for affordable solar cells on earth in no way directly translate to applications in completely different environments (planets or moons)
… why tho
Just ask NASA or ESA
https://www.ans.org/news/article-5894/nations-envision-nuclear-reactors-on-the-moon/
This idea of “well earth has solar, so solar must work just as well on the moon!” doesn’t take into account natural lunar resources (solar needs rare earth metals) , atmospheric conditions, thermal conditions, material transport, etc… Sure, a well-functioning moon settlement would probably have a combination of thermo, solar, and nuclear power, but it is strange how you’re writing off one of the most promising forms of energy that excites and interests space scientists most.
These issues you’re having just sound like cope due to the fact that the US is now lagging in space science.
Why do any space exploration?
While the west sells off space to billionaires and the private sector, we need players doing actual science.
Their villainous gunmen versus our trained soldiers.

They are really laying it on thick with the passive voice.
132·4 months agopeople who lived under USSR really didn’t like it for the most part
So then why do some 60% of Russians regret the dissolution of the USSR? Why do 70% of Moldovans regret it? 50% of Belarusians? 66% of Armenians? 70% of Kyrgyz? 70% of Azerbaijanis?
Show me where the entire Russian military leadership was saying similar shit.
The Kia Seltos and the Kia Telluride are both AWD vehicles that offer diff locks.
Why confuse the hell out of everyone with the AWD vs 4WD distinction when it really all comes down to having a diff lock? I feel like it’d be much easier to communicate and enforce a “diff lock only” rule.
Do you understand what living conditions were like before the revolution? Socialism took an agrarian society and catapulted it into one that won the space race. Literaracy, food output, lifespan all increased during socialism, and they deteriorated again once the USSR devolved back into capitalism.
Bruh, you literally just linked to a paragraph that makes the claim that the idea of a three-day conquest came purely out of American and Ukrainian speculation. This is exactly what I’m saying, save for that one Lukashenko quote.
I’m not going to get into the weeds with you about the invasion, but I am going to call you out for sheisty implied quotes. Any reasonable and adequately uninformed person would read your “three day war” comment in response to a comment chain about putin and assume you were talking about putin. You deserve to get called out for that. It’s misleading and disingenuous.
Oh my bad, for some strange reason I had assumed you were talking about Putin in a comment chain devoted to talking about Putin.
Show me where Putin claimed he’d take Kyiv in 3 days.
Bruh what. I’m not trying to control anything. Just offering an objective fact that you can use how you see fit.
