I guess they do need to get some compensation for North Pole-land melting fast

Nietzsche's ideas weren't race-based, however. People ought to try not quoting the man out of context for once, neither to vilify him nor to use him as support for their own unrelated campaign
But... what about tradition?

Footage of the poor sod's "confession":

Some jewels to look for

"I've been very impressed by the Korean Goverment's humanitarian treatment of severe criminals like myself and their very fair and square legal procedures"

"After I planned in detail to accomplish my plan... (...) I committed my crime of taking out the important political slogan from the staff only area of the ??? international hotel, aimed at harming the work ethic and the motivation of the Korean people"

"I never should have allowed myself to be lured by the US administration to commit a crime in this country"

I wonder if those confessions are made ridiculously over the top on purpose to signal that they're not serious about the charges and just want some concessions.

It's not fair. DPRK takes one man hostage, and gets a shitstorm, Turkey takes an entire European Union hostage, and gets 6 billion.

Probably someone who had two tabs open and pressed reply in the wrong one. It happens to the best (korean) of us.

**Warning! An angry rant about the USA is incoming! Prepare to laugh at the git raging in front of his computer!**

I am greatly amused. That fucking moron thought he could go on a trip to north korea and do shit? That's a totalitarian regime, brah. This ain't no 'Murrica where you do settlements for breaking the law. In North Korea, they are going to drag you through shit and this time I say that is indeed good.

As a result of this chucklefuck, the US will lose international prestige, as they either allow a country with a twentieth of the size, one tenth of the population and one hundredth of the wealth can humiliate them by forcing them to negotiate the release of the nobhead that tried to tear down propaganda, or they lose face by letting the idiot rot in a concentration camp for 15+ years. Either way the US can no longer pretend they can be world police -- if they cannot protect their own citizens they can clearly not defend their allies. Hopefully this a sign of the US losing it's grip over Asia and Europe, and that the world is again controlled by multiple great powers instead of two or one state and their spheres of influence.

I sincerely hope that the USA falls apart, as it is getting weaker by the minute, and it is showing. The American society has always been unconscious politicaly, and due to that the Americans were always easily fooled by rampant generalizations, lies about ideologies and nations, and moronic ideas that wouldn't go by in any other western country. There is a reason the resentment against the USA amongst Europeans is and was increasing since the fall of the Soviet Union - they were no longer needed and their broken policies harmed everybody, even themselves.

If not for the vast amount of resources, population and the isolation from the rest of the world, the USA would have not been a superpower at all, and remaining a regional power at best. The leadership in the United States has always been lackluster, among the political leaders, as well as military ones. The land doctrines used by the USA were almost always outdated before they were even implemented - that is why all direct engagements the USA had over the years abroad were either humiliating defeats or pyrrhic victories. During the Korean and Vietnam wars the US was humiliated by analphabetic rice farmers with rusted and outdated AKs. The US lost simply because the leaders of those tiny, poor agricultural states were vastly better at strategy. In vietnam, the commanders of the US army failed to realize what to do and due to that the whole war was a pathetic loss. Iraq? Identical!

The US was always a country with jingoist war policies. To claim that a nation built by war loves peace is not only a filthy lie, but a stupid one. If I were to make the choice between aligning with a side during a potential World War III, it would be the side that does care about the people that joined their cause, and the USA is most certainly not that.

There. My sad, angry rant is over. Have a good one, the world, United States, hell, even the Kims in North Korea.


Yours truly,
A complete fucking git, SaberToothTIger.

Pax Americana's been eroded for quite some time really, and was pretty much nail-in-coffin from the end of the Iraq war being financed through debt bubbles that led to 2008 and the USA sorta just sitting around doing nothing in the Crimea whilst blundering around the ME

They'll still be the foremost power of the world for quite some time (short of Yellowstone erupting or civil war there is very little that can ever be done to change this) but we multipolar world now
