The U.S. and South Korea armed forces conducted large-scale military exercises this week right in North Korea’s backyard, basically saying, “Fuck you Kim Jung-un.” North Korea immediately called the drills “nuclear war moves” and threatened to respond with an all-out offensive.
Since 2001, the United States and South Korea have been carrying out these operations annually because North Korea is continually a cunt and threatening to blow up shit every other week. The drills are named Operation Foal Eagle, and reaffirms the South Korea-U.S. Mutual Defense Treaty that was signed in 1953, and promises that the United States will defend South Korea if it is ever attacked.
The drills take place from March 7 to April 30, and this year was especially special because this was largest ever in the annual exercises. The mighty military maneuvers involve approximately 17,000 U.S. troops, along with 300,000 South Korean fighters. The joint military drills by Seoul and Washington featured amphibious vehicles, explosions and a shit-ton of gun-wielding troops. Someone should check Kim Jung-un’s panties, I imagine he will need to be changed after he watched this.
Operation Foal Eagle runs simultaneously as Operation Key Resolve, which begins March 7 and ends March 18. Key Resolve is “primarily a command-post exercise with computer-based simulations that focused on deploying troops and equipment to Korea in the event of an attack.”
Each year, North Korea condemns the drills as aggressive and denounces them, this year was no exception.
“The army and people of the DPRK will launch an all-out offensive to decisively counter the U.S. and its followers’ hysterical nuclear war moves,” the North Korean commission said in a statement carried by the state-run KCNA news agency.
These planned drills come after North Korea publicly flaunted their miniaturized nuclear warhead and threatened preemptive nuclear attacks on the U.S. and South Korea last week. This week, Pyongyang upped the ante and said that they could obliterate New York City.
From Sky News:
A report by the state-run outlet DPRK, citing a nuclear scientist named Cho Hyong-Il, said: “Our hydrogen bomb is much bigger than the one developed by the Soviet Union.
“If this H-bomb were to be mounted on an intercontinental ballistic missile and fall on Manhattan in New York City, all the people there would be killed immediately and the city would burn down to ashes.”
North Korea has done extra sabre-rattling with absolute no intentions of backing up their hollow threats ever since the U.N. Security Council hit Pyongyang with harsh new sanctions earlier this month.
Stop trying so hard North Korea. It’s embarrassing.
Donald Trump has said that he will make Kim Jung-un disappear, but the North Korean dictator may have already gotten the hell outta dodge after seeing these massive fighting forces.
