Sometimes it all comes down to whether or not you have a fake ID. Teenagers have used such forgeries to buy cigarettes and booze, or to get access to other “grown-up” entertainments they ought not. But how about getting a fake ID to travel around the world? It appears that the last two North Korean leaders have done precisely that.
While the Trump administration continues to paint the Chinese and Russian position as one of either being with America or being with North Korea, this false dichotomy is not only insulting to two fellow superpowers, but it is deeply misguided.
North Korean claims to have successfully tested its first intercontinental ballistic missile, one which according to Pyongyang could strike anywhere in the world.
North Korean media stated,
“The test launch was conducted at the sharpest angle possible and did not have any negative effect on neighbouring countries”.

RT has produced a new hi-definition 360 degree immersive documentary about the life and times of people and places in North Korea.
The documentary seeks to show both the festivals and daily lives of North Koreans.
The full commentary will be released tomorrow, but RT has released these preview clips that are well worth watching.
The post RT takes you inside North Korea in 360 appeared first on The Duran.
Yesterday, the North Korean Ambassador to the UN gave a tense press conference in which he issued a statement promising that his nation would exercise the full right to self-defence in the event of an attack from the US.
He also affirmed that in his view, the threats from the US justify North Korea’s weapons programmes as it has shown that such things are necessary in order to both deter and defend against an attack.
Author’s Note: I returned just now from North Korea. Here is the first part of my report from this unusual land.
