“Boston fans yelled racist slurs at him and at South Korean Hyun Soo Kim”

Boston is well-known to be a terrible right-wing city filled with racist Trump supporters looking to lynch people of color.

“Study: Boston One Of The Most Liberal US Cities In A Country Of Liberal Cities”

Oh. Wait. Nevermind.

Of course the CIA will deny this, but it kind of makes me wonder if Fatty has a health issue:

Fatty and the DPRK accuse the CIA of setting a poison that would kill the target in 6-12 months. If Kim Jong-un knows he’s soon to shuffle off this mortal coil, he might be wanting to have his people avenge him.

The description of the poison reads like a science fiction novel, with a lot of points of failure along the way. Not really buying it myself.

Reminds me of those CIA assassins they caught in Boris Yeltsin’s home: Jim Beam, Johnny Walker, and Jack Daniels. Of course, the Russians said it all went down smoothly…

The North Korean statement pretty much exactly describes dimethylmercury poisoning.

But is it what they fear or a pre-planned event?

If you develop the technology to hack someone else, you’ve developed the technology to be hacked yourself:

North Korea has been the target of a long-drawn out cyberespionage campaign by unknown hackers. Security experts said that a spy malware, dubbed “KONNI” has been used since 2014, to launch several stealth malware attacks on the hermit kingdom’s various organisations.

This is why you have to do your Level 1 Cyber Awareness Training people!
