Obama’s guys did it..!

This “counter attack” just more prep-work for the False Flag infrastructure attack later.

Obama will turn out Bad America’s lights, and then all the suckers will blame a Korean country that builds empty hotel obelisks and doesn’t know what Bulkogi is cuz there’s no such thing as DPRK meat.

IT IS CONCEPTUAL PREP WORK.

I think more likely some US-based hacker or hacker group went after the norks. . .hard to conceive the Messiah could ever do anything at all to defend this nation, especially so quickly aftert the event.

Look, sorry, it was probably me. I’ve been after one of those spiffy NK officer’s hats and I think my Ebay feed clobbered their Netware 2.0 boxes. Anybody got a boot floppy?

So all 20 of North Korea’s internet users are out of luck.

I have some old IBM cards with machine language code. Would that help?

Just who is NK’s internet provider? How do they tie into the network? Through China?

We never hear about the US capabilities for cyber warfare, because I think it is classified, but I hope our capabilities are far greater than we think, and I hope there rest of the world takes notice. Don't F with us.

Cutting off internet access doesn’t make sense at all.

Reducing every Nork internet-connected PC to being able to only stream The Interview and Team America: World Police, now THAT makes sense.

I imagine the loss of the net to NK is not all that damaging compared to our loss of the net. Many Freepers would go nuts.

And another thing, make sure these scum bags are well aware of the ballistic missile submarines that are just a few miles off their coasts.

Our Cyber-Fu rep will be years recovering from the Obamacare website rollout.

Hopefully, the Nork’s nuclear reactors are not controlled via the internet and neither is their doomsday nuclear response system, if they have one.
