Is Little Rocket Man About to FAFO? North Korea

North Korea’s dictator Kim Jong Un seems to be nervous, following the beautiful U.S. army operation on Saturday that captured former Venezuelan “president” (read: dictator, drug lord) Nicolás Maduro. 

Or is he?

As North Korean media reported on Monday, Kim, the Hermit Kingdom dictator  — hilariously dubbed “Little Rocket Man” by President Donald Trump during his first time period — noticed check flights of hypersonic missiles and emphasised the need to strengthen the nation’s nuclear struggle deterrent. 

FAFO?

While Kim has puffed out his chest and made more ridiculous bluffs than most of us can bear in mind throughout his vice-like grip on the Hermit Kingdom, absolutely he isn’t insane enough to assume he might win a nuclear struggle with the United States, proper? Dunno. But I do know that if he have been silly enough to attempt, North Korea would seemingly be decreased to a smoldering parking zone if needed.

Anyway, North Korea announced its latest missile drill just a day after neighboring nations reported a number of ballistic launches and accused Pyongyang of deliberate provocations. (So what’s new?) 

The timing was hardly a shock.

The assessments passed off just hours before South Korean President Lee Jae Myung left for a summit in China with President Xi Jinping.

Here’s more:

The Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) said Sunday’s assessments involving a hypersonic weapon system have been meant to study its readiness, improve missile troops’ firepower operational abilities and consider operational capabilities of the nation’s struggle deterrent.

The possession of a functioning hypersonic weapon would give North Korea an means to penetrate the U.S. and South Korea’s missile protection shields. In past years, North Korea has carried out a sequence of assessments to purchase it, but many overseas consultants query whether or not the examined missiles have achieved their desired pace and maneuverability during flights.

In latest weeks, North Korea test-fired what it called long-range strategic cruise missiles and new anti-air missiles and launched pictures exhibiting obvious progress in the construction of its first nuclear-powered submarine.

According to the KCNA, Kim said of the assessments (emphasis, mine):

Through today’s launching drill, we are able to verify that a very important technology activity for national protection has been carried out. We must repeatedly improve the army means, particularly offensive weapon systems.

As I urged at the top, absolutely “Little Rocket Man” is not loopy enough to start a nuclear struggle with the United States. I imply, he actually is not, proper?

The actuality — in my not-so-humble opinion, that is — is that Kim is merely puffing out his little communist chest again, just to remind South Korea and its president that he — “Little Rocket Man” — is still the Chinese dictator’s favourite Korean. But is he, truly? Is it attainable that China needs its misbehaving stepchild would sometimes knock off the nonsense before it goes too far? 

North Korea’s persevering with nuclear ambitions have been anticipated to be on the desk when Lee and Xi sat down for their summit on Monday, an unavoidable matter given Kim’s latest spherical of missile theater.
