Graft from Russian billionaires? No way!

Fat boy thinks Putin has his back.
What he doesn’t know is Putin has a knife in his hand.................
>The explosion of a strong nuclear head on a ballistic missile “tested” several hundred kilometers above the territory of North Korea could generate an electromagnetic pulse capable of knocking out electric infrastructure and electronic devices for millions of square miles below the epicenter.
Is this actually true? It sounds rather unbelievable.
It will be interesting to see if the Russians, Chinese, Iranians, et al, suddenly pull their diplomats out of NK.....................
Graft from Russian billionaires? No way!
It would be a windfall for Apple and Samsung.........Everybody’s smartphones would be dead..................
it cannot be excluded that at least some, if not all, rocket components are being delivered by state actors.
Did Hillary and Obama give them the OK to do this when she SOLD them the Uranium, was this part of their secret deal?
Shouldn’t they be asked these questions.
Why doesn’t Kim Ding Dong threaten to pop a nuke over South Korea?
I thought defeating South Korea was his goal?
He acts like he’s a puppet.
But Samsung’s factory would be dead too.
I’m not buying this theory.
First off, let’s acknowledge that suggesting Russia wants N.Korea to blow up to hurt China is definitely in the category of conspiracy theory. But to entertain the conspiracy theory for a moment, you have to believe that a Nuke going off over N.Korea will perminantly weaken China. Even if the EMP aspect is technically correct (which is also an assumption) I just don’t see how it has a major permanent effect on China’s power.
This recalls the civil war in Spain during the 1930’s.
Germany and Italy were fighting a proxy war with the Soviet Union on somebody else’s real estate, the “Republicans” (backed by the Soviet Union) against the Spanish Falange (supported by the Italian Fascists and the German Nazis).
Everybody involved had to be some kind of socialist, but it was an excellent test bed for trying out various military hardware and tactics. The Spanish Falange (under Franco) sat out the Second World War, but was still a conduit for assistance to the Axis powers.
North Korea is a place to try out a test bed of various Russian Federation designs. Russia and China do not always have the easiest of relationships, and this is as much between Russia and China as it is between the US and North Korea.
There is a secret struggle going on we are not seeing.
Yet.
Sat out-ish. Spain sent the 'Blue' Division to Russia after Barbarossa and withdrew it when it looked like Germany would lose.
They also made good money selling tungsten to the Axis which was needed for armor and hardening AP shells.
Would anybody notice?....................
I'm not sure anyone can even find out how many engines we actually buy from Russia unless they go to the Russian source and people in the US have been batter dipped in lies about Russia so who would believe what the manufacturer said?
Maybe the same Pentagon that can't account for several Trillion dollars can tell us how many we purchased and how many we've used, right?
As far as I'm concerned, the fact that we know Ukraine is desperate for cash therefore it's inexpensive to pay them to look the other way, the factory (owned and controlled by a criminal oligarch) that makes the engines in question is sitting idle with a stash of engines on hand, and Ukraine was trying to sell engines even before the coup took place, points the the talk about Russia or China being involved as nothing by smoke. The mirrors to go with that smoke are in Pakistan where they make an engine almost identical to the one in question for their own IRBMs.
Don't want to upset the Afghanistan opium business with any fuss over the Paks selling engines or the looting of Ukraine with fuss over Ukraine selling them. That's the bottom line which means the most likely suspects aren't the most popular suspects.

Your post is pretty thick with the well known false conspiracy theories.
My opinionated, “in general” comment:
The term “conspiracy theory” is often used to validate false explanations by discrediting true explanations.
