That Takes Balls
1) The Korean War was fought by the UN and South Korea - why is the petty little dictator charging the US - oh yeah as it was the AMERICANS who won WWII and divided Korea (which had been ruled by the Japanese) in two.
and
2) The NOKOs were the ones who ‘started’ the war in an attempt to get at the rebuilt and functioning South - so they are the ones liable.And finally,
3) Lets count the cost to South Korea, America and any other UN Troops involved since 1946 - to see how those numbers come out - most of the death and destruction in NOKO is in the hands of the petty little dictator himself.
Hmmmmmm..... $65trillion adjusted for inflation from the 1950 Korean ‘Conflict’ should just about equal the cost of several hundred multi-megaton warheads delivered from many dozen ICBMs plus several hundred B-2 strikes with JDAMs.
....I say lets give it to ‘em with a very personal delivery....

Hmmm. Something involving 30 minutes or less, guaranteed.
These are the same fuckers who complain of “Western Agression” against the pwoor oppressed DPRK while simultaneously glorifying the “heroes” who fought behind “enemy lines” for the “liberation of the South” as far back as effing nineteen FOURTY FIVE, right?
Tell Pyongyang to go fuck itself. And furthermore- since it was responsible for incalculable damage from its campaign of state-sanctioned terrorism from 45-50 and regular aggression from 50-53 (to say nothing of everything after), including responsibility for violations of the rules of war via the execution of POWs without any extenuating factors whatsoever and the wholesale murder of entire refugee columns just so they could use their clothes to attack Western Allied units, and likewise caused massive amounts of deastation to the South and even the North from its unbelievably harsh occupation poicies, I say that the NorKs are the ones who owe US and the ROK massive amounts of compensation for the Korean War. This is just a wild, arsepull guess, but I would estimate it was (at the time) was far more than the inflation-adjusted numbers the NorKs give for these events. Which would be even larger given inflation.
Tell them no. Just no. They are the ones responsible for the war, and their acceptance of that fact must be one of the conditions that must be met for any, and I mean ANY, future aid.
We can get around to the reparations issue later.
If the NorKs complain, lean on the Chinese to force the issue by telling them that any North Korean move that does not meet explicit and radical Chinese counters will be seen as an act sanctioned by China and appropriate countermeasures shall be taken.
Let’s SHOW this goddamned tin pot regime that actual, FUNCTIONING states behave.
