re: #63 Shiplord Kirel
I think Kim is yet again just making noise in an attempt to shake down the world for some more food.
Could be, though it’s a fucked up way to go about it. I remember when Jong Il passed, their big giveaway to the people was rotten fish. Thing is though, where do they go if the gambit doesn’t work? China and Russia look to be less and less inclined towards bailing them out again, and they’ve burned damned near every bridge they had with SK and the West. Officially scrapping the armistice isn’t a situation they can exactly crawl back from, they own that now. They’ve made it virtually impossible for anybody to willingly negotiate with them ever again.
