the most recent defector was a NK soldier. He was severely malnourished and had serious case of GI worms. Anyone who thinks the NK military is a formidable cadre of crack troops probably thought the Iraqi elite Republican Guard was a match for the 101st Airborne too.

Just keep them away from soldiers in the North Korean Army.

> a poor harvest, a drought and international sanctions have left the government with reduced food rations.
And it has nothing to do with communism?

Oh, those poor North Korean soldiers.
Somehow it must be Trump's fault. Obama kept them well fed.

If this did turn into a conventional war I wonder how many of those troops would surrender to the South Korean forces if given the chance to do so?
To: Hadean
If true, maybe we should have a massive tailgate party next to the DMZ and offer a free steak dinner to every North Korean that defects to the South. Suspect at least half NK’s army would surrender to the South within 24 hours. Kind of hard to fight a war when all they guys you expect to fight and die for your side are sitting with the enemy fat and happy.
To: Hadean
And now for making Dear Leader look bad, they will be shot.

Why do I have this feeling that the DPRK military is more like the Red Army divisions in Moscow during the Soviet Union era, "more show than go"? You really wonder do the DRPK Army have even enough ammunition to fight a war for even one day.

Or does North Korea really want to be “The Mouse That Roared”?

Even if they just confiscated Little Rocket Man’s nightly TV snacks, it would probably feed the army for a month.

Put a couple hundred meat smokers on the border and wait for the wind to blow north. Announce free food if they surrender.

I have long recommended a barbie every 100 yards on the southern DMZ. Food will completely compromise the Nork military.

If they are eating plain untreated corn out of the field the nutritional value is very low. That’s what causes pellagra. Corn has to be soaked in lime-water (alkaline) to release nutritional elements necessary for human consumption. Tortilla dough and hominy have all been treated with lime-water in the grain before cooking. then it is nutritious. Poor fellows.

For the first time in modern history, our sanctions on someone are actually working as intended. Trump is more than just talk.
To: Hadean
Seems like should war ever come, those fighting the Norks wouldn’t need to do very much except set up free food stands and yell “Come and get it!” in Korean ...
