World War 3: Australia backs South Korea! U.S. lies to Aussie media about North Korean missile range!

“We’re not aware of any capability by North Korea, even with weapons they’ve identified…being able to conduct a strike in Australia.”-Jeffry Bleich, U.S. Ambassador to Australia

The U.S. is lying to Aussies, because Australia is closer to Korea than North America, and the DPRK’s KN-08 ICBM can reach the west coast of North America!

Sydney, Australia is approximately 8304 kilometers (5160 miles) from Korea.  The KN-08 has an estimated range of 10000 kilometers (6213.7 miles).

The KN-08 is a new ICBM, unveiled in 2012.  Democratic People’s Republic of Korea claims the ICBM has a 10000km range.  U.S. officials, and even the U.S. media have claimed the missile is a fake.  Some U.S. sources say if the missile is real the range is about 6000 to 8000km, which means the ICBM could still hit the northern end of Auz Down Under.

Here’s the rub; North Korea has been successfully developing their own missiles systems for the past two decades, so why can’t the KN-08 be for real?

Australia’s Prime Minister, Julia Gillard, called the new dictator of South Korea, Park Geun-hye, and expressed support for the Republic of Korea.   Gillard promised to continue political pressure on North Korea.

World War 3: 53000 North Koreans refuse to show up for work at KIR! South Korea refuses to evacuate KIR workers! North Korea prepares two ballistic missiles for launch!

05 April 2013 (02:28 UTC-07 Tango)/24 Jumada l-Ula 1434/16 Farvardin 1391/25 Yi-Mao (2nd month) 4711

An estimated 53000 DPRK workers have not shown up for work at the Kaesŏng Industrial Region (KIR).  Some analysts say it might be because of a North Korean holiday, however, they also said it was common for the capitalist ROK corporations to ask DPRK workers to work on holidays.

To show how important the cheap North Korean labor is to South Korean capitalists, South Korean media got this reaction from an unnamed manager of one of those companies: “Without the arrival of new parts and materials, and the need to make full use of trucks that cannot return if they cross over the DMZ [De-Militarized Zone], companies must pace their production schedules….At most, the food will probably run out in a week, which would make it hard for South Korean workers to stay at Kaesong.”

Even with the threat of starvation officials in Republic of Korea say they do not see any reason to evacuate ROK workers from KIR as demanded by the DPRK: “When the situation requires, the withdrawal should be carried out for the safety of workers there, therefore (the government) is not considering withdrawal.”-Ryoo Kihl-jae, ROK Unification Minister

Also, South Korea’s Yonhap News Agency reporting that the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea is preparing two medium range ballistic missiles for launch.

Yonhap cites South Korean and U.S. military sources.  They say that two BM25 Musudan have been loaded on their mobile launchers (aka TEL, transporter-erector-launcher), after being shipped to the east coast, along the coast with the Sea of Japan (facing the Pacific).   Earlier reports had said that one BM25 Musdan was being moved to the east coast.

The U.S. and ROK sources say the TELs have now been hidden.

World War 3: POVs to be confiscated in event of Second Korean War!

04 April 2013 (13:56 UTC-07 Tango)/23 Jumada l-Ula 1434/15 Farvardin 1391/24 Yi-Mao (2nd month) 4711

“We can’t tell you for sure the models or the number of the cars to be mobilized. That’s confidential.”-unnamed government official

POV, Privately Owned Vehicle (aka car, truck, SUV, mini-van), could become property of the government if full blown Second Korean War were declared.

The revaluation has South Koreans pissed: “The car dealer never told me about this. If the government takes away cars of a specific model, I think it’s unfair.”

Another man pointed out “I would need my car to move away with my family. The government taking away civilian cars is too much of a burden on people.”

Oh, but if you don’t comply you’ll pay a $18000 USD fine and/or go to prison for seven years!

As I’ve reported, the U.S. backed Republic of Korea is not a true democracy, it is a authoritarian regime that’s been under martial law since 1972.

If you study the history of the (First) Korean War you should find evidence that the capitalist South Korea government treated Koreans far worse than communist North Korea, and the United States just looked the other way.

Under the Emergency Resource Management Law in South Korea, computers will pick at random which POVs will be pressed into military service.

However, the age of the car owner and the car, and the location of the car, will be prime factors: “Gyeonggi and Gangwon Province residents may be high on the list, since those are the places bordering North Korea. And the younger the car owner is, the more likely they have to give up their car.”-unnamed government official

World War 3: China admits military build up along Korean border, since 2009! Final War between eastern workers and western capitalists!

04 April 2013 (13:35 UTC-07 Tango)/23 Jumada l-Ula 1434/15 Farvardin 1391/24 Yi-Mao (2nd month) 4711

After days of reports that China was building up forces near the Korean border, and after a Chinese official denied such reports, we now get a better explanation; China has been building up forces since 2009: “Whenever the crisis deepened on the Korean Peninsula, since the North’s second nuclear test in 2009, China has reinforced its troops along the border. Amid escalating threats from North Korea, it’s highly likely that Army has moved troops from the Shenyang Military Region.”-unnamed Chinese official

So the official that said there was no ‘new’ troop build up was correct. The build up has been taking place since 2009.

2009 is the year that tensions began escalating.  Western media won’t tell you this, it started because North Korea wanted better pay and treatment of DPRK workers at the capitalist run Kaesŏng Industrial Region (KIR).

The DPRK responded to western capitalists with its second nuke test.  Then, in 2012, the DPRK wanted the capitalist corporations to pay their fare share in taxes.  The negative response from the capitalists resulted in North Korea’s third nuke test.  Keep in mind that the western capitalist main streamer media always reported these nuke test as if they made no sense, that they were not justified nor provocated.

This is a final war between the workers and the capitalists!

World War 3: North Korea builds up military around KIR! South Korean KIR workers say this time the North is serious!

04 April 2013 (13:20 UTC-07 Tango)/23 Jumada l-Ula 1434/15 Farvardin 1391/24 Yi-Mao (2nd month) 4711

Republic of Korea media has been talking to South Korean workers kicked out of the Kaesŏng Industrial Region (KIR).  Some ROK workers say there is an increase in military vehicles surrounding KIR. The following are quotes that show the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea is serious about war this time, and that South Korean capitalist corporations can’t survive without the cheap North Korean labor.

“[DPRK] Workers who normally wear civilian clothes wore military uniforms and patrols were strengthened.”

“The demeanor of North Korean workers appears to have changed overnight. They were colder than usual and didn’t smile.”

“Inter-Korean relations are a problem, but we’re very concerned that we [ROKies] could lose our business.”

“If parts or food fail to reach the North [KIR] for two to three days, the assembly lines will stop running and workers will starve.”

World War 3: Japan to co-ordinate military attack with United States! North Korea evacuating all workers from KIR!

04 April 2013 (02:48 UTC-07 Tango)/23 Jumada l-Ula 1434/15 Farvardin 1391/24 Yi-Mao (2nd month) 4711

“Our government does not believe we should be pushed around and swayed by every provocative statement out of North Korea. We are coordinating with the relevant nations to enact the various [UN] Security Council resolutions.”-Yoshihide Suga, Japanese Chief Cabinet Secretary

Japan’s Defense Minister, Itsunori Onodera, has ordered increased co-ordination with the U.S. military.  Japan will begin sharing intelligence on activities of DPRK with United States.

DPRK officials said they will pullout approximately 53000 North Korean workers from the Kaesŏng Industrial Region (KIR).  North Korea says the KIR is “on the verge of bankruptcy”.

Democratic People’s Republic of Korea also ordered all Republic of Korea workers to leave, but reports say there are still 800 ROKies in KIR.  200 are scheduled to leave before the weekend.

World War 3: Re-start of North Korean nuclear complex began weeks ago!

04 April 2013 (00:13 UTC-07 Tango)/23 Jumada l-Ula 1434/15 Farvardin 1391/24 Yi-Mao (2nd month) 4711

According to the U.S.-Korea Institute of the Johns Hopkins School of Advanced International Studies, satellite pics show the re-start of Nyongbyon (Yongbyon) nuclear complex began weeks ago.

The re-start began sometime between February and the March.  A pic taken on 07 February shows no activity, then on the next pass, on 27 March, there is clear evidence of construction work.

The analysts think nuclear operations could be re-started in a few weeks.

World War 3: China building up military on border with North Korea? China denies it, yet agreed to join the U.S. to fight North Korea?

04 April 2013 (00:13 UTC-07 Tango)/23 Jumada l-Ula 1434/15 Farvardin 1391/24 Yi-Mao (2nd month) 4711

Several U.S. media outlets have been reporting that the People’s Liberation Army is building up forces on the border with North Korea.  In a news conference yesterday a Chinese official denied the reports.

The Washington Free Beacon has published pics of tank transporters supposedly taken by people near the area where the build up is taking place. It claims its official sources are unnamed U.S. government officials “…with access to intelligence reports, both intelligence and Internet reports from the region…”

The Washington Post also reported that the PLA is building up troops along the Korean border, citing unnamed U.S. government sources (as well as citing the Washington Free Beacon).  Not only did Chinese officials deny it, but the Obama administration downplayed it.

This comes after reports that China and the U.S. will work together against the DPRK.

According to China.org, Chinese State Councilor and Defense Minister, Chang Wanquan, and U.S. Defense Secretary, Chuck Hagel, agreed to co-operate militarily: “…Hagel said that China and the United States have common interests and that the two sides should join hands to advance their inter-military ties that are facing new historic opportunities.”-China.org

World War 3: U.S. deploys chemical battalion to South Korea! “Large scale full spectrum conflict” expected!

04 April 2013 (23:25 UTC-07 Tango 03 April 2013)/23 Jumada l-Ula 1434/15 Farvardin 1391/24 Yi-Mao (2nd month) 4711

The U.S. Army’s 23rd Chemical battalion has been re-deployed to South Korea.

The unit fought in World War 2 and the First Korean War.  They were based in Korea from 1988 until 2004.  They’ve been based in Washington since then.

In October 2012 it was announced that the NBC unit was re-deploying to South Korea. Even then U.S. officials were concerned about a Second Korean War: “In Korea, like no other place on the globe, the potential for large-scale, full-spectrum conflict against the U.S. and its allies exists on a daily basis.”-U.S. 2nd Infantry Division statement

The mission of the battalion is to counter Nuclear, Biological and Chemical (NBC) threats.

World War 3: North Korea demands all South Koreans get out! South Korea says no such demand received! North Korean missile systems on the move! Yes, they have ICBMs that can hit the Pacific Coast of North America!

The ROK Yonhap news agency reporting that the DPRK is demanding all South Koreans must leave Kaesŏng Industrial Region (KIR).  However, Republic of Korea government officials swear they’ve received no such demand from Democratic People’s Republic of Korea: “The North required some companies to submit their plan to leave Kaesong for Seoul by April 10. But, it was misinformed as if it was a demand for all pullout of workers from Kaesong.”-ROK Ministry of Unification statement

Yonhap news agency also reporting that DPRK medium range ballistic missiles are being moved to the east coast along the Sea of Japan (facing the Pacific).

The Yonhap article says the missile move was what prompted the U.S. to send THAAD system to Guam.  There is speculation the ballistic missile will be launched mid-April (possibly on 15 April, is there a connection to the 10 April date for South Koreans to get out of KIR?).  U.S. and ROK analysts think it is a new BM25 Musudan (aka Taepodong X, Nodong/Rodong-B and Mirim) missile.

North Korea has never test fired the missile, it was first revealed in October 2010.  It’s estimated to have a range of 4000 kilometers (2485 miles), which puts Guam within its reach.  North Korea has already declared the ‘launch area’ a no fly/no sail zone.

But wait, there’s more!  Japan’s Asahi Shimbun reporting that North Korea’s long range KN-08 ballistic missiles are also being moved to the east Sea of Japan coastline.  The missiles have a range of 10000 kilometers (6213.7 miles).  That puts the Pacific Coast of North America within their reach.

Asahi Shimbun says their source for the information comes from military officials in South Korea, Japan and United States.
