Captured Journal Shows Intense Indoctrination of North Korean Soldiers Fighting Ukraine
Here is an interesting article in the Wall Street Journal about North Korean forces fighting Ukraine in Russia:
The crude stick-figure diagram, sketched in blue ink, details how North Korean soldiers deployed to support Russia in the Ukraine war should respond to the approach of a Ukrainian drone. One soldier—referred to as “bait” in the drawing—should stand still to lure the drone so that a pair of comrades can attempt to shoot it down.
The grisly tactics were divulged in a diary taken off a slain North Korean soldier on Dec. 21, with passages containing mundane details of life at the front, descriptions of combat tactics and expressions of love for North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, according to excerpts recently made public by Ukraine’s special-operations forces. Independent experts say the diary entries appear genuine, with penmanship, word choice and expressions of ideological fervor all common in North Korea.
The young soldier who penned the passage about the drone died in a firefight alongside two other compatriots, according to Ukraine’s special forces.
“Even at the cost of my life, I will carry out the Supreme Commander’s orders without hesitation,” reads one entry from the diary. “I will show the world the bravery and sacrifice of Kim Jong Un’s special forces.”
You can read more at the link, but Ukraine intelligence services are stating there has been up to 4,000 North Korean casualties. They are also reporting that North Korea may be preparing a second deployment of Soldiers to assist Russia. What I found most interesting from the article is that Ukraine has lost half the land they seized in Russia which shows that despite the heavy losses the North Koreans may be having an impact on the battlefield.
There is something discourteously called “The Fuzzy Wuzzy Principle” that the British under Queen Victoria learned in the late 19th Century (1800s for you chinabots). That is, a soldier with 2x as much armor, advanced weaponry, and vastly superior training can be killed with simple low-tech weapons (like the shovel-headed spears carried by the eponymous Sudanese tribesmen).
And quantity has a quality all its own. Thus, in an attitional war like Ukraine, it may boil down to numbers, not technology.
I hope the fighting and dying will soon end. There are already too many grieving families on all sides.
Who is this addressed to?
And does this wish of peace also apply to Greenland, Panama, and Canada? Hypocrite.
No hypocracy here.
Greenland is on track to become American. Greenland is going to play both sides, though. The progression is:
– Trump will make promises to the people of Greenland that Denmark has not even tried
– Greenland will decide America is a better benefactor than Denmark and declare independence
– Greenland will cozy up to America with the goal of taking as much as possible with the fewest obligations
– it is unclear if Trump will pull of the Deal of the Century by making Greenland American… but it will functional be so until they get greedy and America needs to flex… that may not be for decades.
Panama has mismanaged their gift and now it is time to indian give. Let it be a lesson to anyone who abuses American generosity. Looking at you, Greenland.
Canada is a joke that isn’t a joke but is still a joke. Canada is the libtard paradise and would destroy American voting demographics. A better strategy is to give Canada the west coast of America and a couple libtard states. This would make America very concervtive. Once Canada mismanages it all, take all of Canada militarily but make them a non-voting territory. That would be a positive transformation of America.
The Russia-Ukraine war needs to keep going until Europe is fully deindustrialized and Ukrainian resistance to Russia taking the east and multinationals taking the west is impossible. A crippled Europe is bad from everone from China to Europe… but good for America. The globalist success in building the first corporatist state will be a turning point in history, like the citystates replacing churches and ministers becoming prime ministers… not sure who that will be good for beyond stockholders.
No hypocrisy here. I embrace much of this.
