Congratulations, North Korea, you made it out of the World Cup's group stages!

So North Korea didn't even send a team to the World Cup but they've defeated Japan 7-0, the United States 4-0 and China 2-0. Do they REALLY think anybody buys this nonsense?

It’s meant for NK consumption, and yes, having no other means of verification, most North Koreans will believe it.

Loinvoters in the US suffer from the same reliance on leftist media.

Why not? The world accepts, endorses, pays for, global warming and demands allegiance and sacrifice to it’s alter. So why not?

Yes, he was. Still, he has never faced a soccer team manned by one Mike Ditka!

They enjoy making fools of their citizens. Not much difference between North Korean communists and our Democrat party and RINO establishment.

It’s so over the top — it’s almost as if somebody in their media is hoping the people will finally catch on, and begin doubting.

Shame on them, but I’ve changed my view of this rot, more and more.

Now I simply think to myself, “We’re not as bad —YET.”

But just think about how much money they saved by not having to send an actual team!

The propaganda in Nork is truly one for the ages. My guess is that many in North Korea believe winning the World Cup is true. The others? Well...they pretend that they believe it is true.
