As crazy as the NK's are, this part is basically true:

Nuke, Most Powerful War Deterrent



It is nearly 70 years since the first nuclear weapon made its appearance.

The period witnessed the complicated and chaotic situation.

Cold war persisted long and wars, big and small, were incessant in different areas.

There were more than 100 wars in 50 years after WWII.

Most of them were wars of aggression ignited by the imperialists to infringe upon other countries' sovereignty.

But the highhanded imperialists didn't dare kick off war against nuclear weapons states. Nuclear powers, big or small, have not undergone a military aggression.

It shows that no aggressor can pounce upon nuclear weapons state.

An evidence of it is the nuclear confrontation between the former Soviet Union and the U.S. during the cold war.

Toward the end of WWII, the U.S. was possessed of nuke for the first time in the world.

In August 1948 the former Soviet Union succeeded in an A-bomb test, thereby bursting the nuclear monopoly of the U.S. that was desirous of global hegemony.

After that, both the Soviet Union and the U.S. boosted their nuclear forces strong enough to retaliate against each other with nukes.

Therefore, they could not be the first to use nukes. The same is the case with China, a strategic rival of the U.S.

China had made strenuous efforts to be a military power and economic giant suitable to its position as a power in population and territory.

Its success in A-bomb test in October 1964 made China a country that no one can defy.

Contrary is the case with the countries on the Balkan Peninsula and the Middle East that fell victims to the aggression of imperialists. In the past, they didn’t strengthen their own defense capabilities, depending on great powers or even scrapped their war deterrent under the appeasement and pressure of the U.S.

As a result, they failed to defend their national dignity and sovereignty, let alone happiness and prosperity.

The reality shows that one can defend oneself only by countering nukes with nukes.

The U.S. is not the only country that is possessed of nuke.

But, no one inflicted so terrible nuclear disasters upon humanity as the U.S. that brandished nukes the moment it possessed A-bomb.

Now that the U.S. threatens us with nukes, a diplomatic way or call cannot ensure national sovereignty and safety and the socialist system from the U.S. nukes.

Our nuclear weapon is an out-and-out self-defensive war deterrent.
