No ICBMs Were At The Military Parade Celebrating North Korea's 70th Birthday





Daily Mail: Kim Jong-un chuckles alongside senior Chinese leader as North Korea celebrates 70th birthday with parade of tanks and goose-stepping troops (but no sign of inter-continental ballistic missiles)

* Democratic People's Republic of Korea was proclaimed on September 9, 1948, and is major occasion in North
* Birth of nation took place three years after Moscow and Washington divided the peninsula between them
* Series of events will include 'mass games', where thousands of people dance or hold up placards in unison
* Celebrations began with concert featuring state's top musical ensembles at Pyongyang Indoor Stadium

Kim Jong-un was pictured smiling next to a high-ranking Chinese official as North Korea stepped up its 70th anniversary celebrations on Sunday with a gigantic military parade through the center of Pyongyang.

Cohorts of Kim Jong-un's elite troops were pictured marching in perfect rank and file through the streets of the capital, with the nuclear missiles seen in previous years conspicuously absent from the occasion.

The Democratic People's Republic of Korea was proclaimed on September 9, 1948, three years after Moscow and Washington divided the peninsula between them in the closing days of the Second World War.

That development was the headline story on cnn for 5 minutes, before they switched to explaining to us why Serena Williams is awesome for calling a guy a liar and sexist because another chick beat her in tennis. Cnn.

Go read it all up, little parrot. You need your Sunday talking points

Well at least Kim Jung Un is more sane than Justin Trudeau.

Evil but more sane

"Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau suggested Friday in Ottawa that the world is “moving towards more diversity” that will create “entropy.” Trudeau apparently didn’t know the word entropy means a decline into chaos."

To paraphrase little Justin

moving towards more diversity will create more decline into chaos

Finally an honest politician!

Math, science, logic ... these are highly overrated fields for a budding politician to study

... along with business

“The world is moving towards more diversity, not less diversity. It's a form of entropy.”

Justin Trudeau (Brain Trust Extraordinaire)

September 7, 2018 a day that will go down in infamy

Now the rest of the story:

Justin bailed out of engineering.

Good Day!
