North Korea is very upset by America’s joint-military exercises with South Korea (Ulchi Freedom Guardian drills) and has responded with yet another warning, as well as a super creepy propaganda video.
In the verbal warning, North Korea touted its ability to turn the United States into “a heap of ashes.”
In the video, North Korea issued a specific warning to the Trump administration, urging it to “keep its eyes and ears open from now on.” It also shows a clip of what looks to be President Trump looking over graves. It even features a specific image of Defense Secretary Mattis.
“Americans should live with their eyes and ears wide open. They will be tormented day and night by the Hwasong-12 rockets without knowing when they will be launched,” the video reads. “They will be in jitters.”
“(We) just wish US policymakers should seriously think twice ahead of an obvious outcome (of a war),” another caption says, showing a photo of US Defence Secretary James Mattis. “Time is not on the US side.”
With the exercises continuing on Tuesday, North Korea upped its rhetoric, saying it would be a misjudgment for the US to think that Pyongyang would “sit comfortably without doing anything,” the state-run Korean Central News Agency said, citing an unidentified military spokesman.
Fire and fury. That’s all I’m going to say about this.
