The funny thing is I can just imagine Obama saying "didn't we commission a report that proved arming these assholes won't work?" and Clinton and Panetta rolling their eyes. Caution and facts, negative traits of a leader.

Socialism Is a Science: Guinean Organization
Pyongyang, October 27 (KCNA) -- The Guinean National Committee for the Study of the Juche Idea released its information bulletin "Socialism Is a Science" on October 21.

The bulletin said as follows:

It is the 20th anniversary of the publication of "Socialism Is a Science", the work of Kim Jong Il, leader of the DPR of Korea.

Kim Jong Il in the work declared that man-centred socialism, socialism centred on the popular masses, is sure to win for its scientific accuracy and truth.

20 years since the publication of the work were the days when its validity and vitality were fully demonstrated.

The Korean people could win a brilliant victory in the fierce confrontation with the imperialists aimed at "a total end of socialism" and in the struggle for defending socialism late in the last century. It was because they had firm confidence and inevitable faith in socialism.

The situation shows how foolish the "total end of socialism" touted by the imperialists and their spokesmen is and proves that socialism is a science and truth and it is the law governing the development of history that humankind advances towards socialism.

Socialism is a science and it will surely emerge victorious.

KCNA Commentary Flays U.S. Invariable Ambition for World Hegemony
Pyongyang, October 27 (KCNA) -- The U.S. Army has worked out a new military strategy to cope with military conflicts with different countries of the world including the DPRK.

In a recent report "Operation concept of the Army: 2020-2040" the U.S. Army defined the DPRK, Iran, Russia, China, etc. as "regional powers" with the biggest possibility to clash with the U.S. in the future and "states in the relations of competition seeking hegemony" and advanced a new operation concept calling for the U.S. forces' plan for familiarity and change pursuant to it.

According to this new military strategy called "victory in complicated world", seven of 10 division-level commands of the U.S. forces will be deployed overseas and equipment for infantry such as transport helicopters will be massively increased to make up for the reduction of heavy weapons.

This is touching off strong rebuff of the international community as it is a reckless act of containing those countries courting the U.S. displeasure by force of arms and realizing its ambition for world domination at any cost.

The U.S. is now facing serious challenges externally and having a hard time.

It is facing not a few of difficulties in carrying out its strategy for dominating Asia-Pacific as the DPRK is waging a dynamic anti-U.S. struggle to defend the sovereignty. The economic and military growth of Russia and China is posing threats to the U.S. hegemonic position. Fierce armed conflicts in the Near East are sapping the strength of the U.S.

As all this was an inevitable product of the U.S. brigandish moves for aggression and world domination, it should have drawn a due lesson from this. But the U.S. worked out a more dangerous military strategy and has resorted to military actions, pursuant to it.

In the above-said report the U.S. scenario for world domination has gone the lengths of openly defining armed forces of the DPRK, Iran, Russia and China as "those of enemies". A particular mention should be made of the fact that in the said report the U.S. defined China as a "country posing greatest threats to the U.S.", a country with the biggest possibility to clash with the U.S. forces. It is expressing strong caution against China's growth of military capability and military modernization, openly calling for substantial counteraction against it.

Experts in the U.S. were unanimous in asserting that the report underscored notably the possibility of armed conflict between China and the U.S. It proves that the new military strategy is related to containing China in many aspects.

A high-ranking official of the U.S. military said that the new military strategy included the operations for deploying armed forces now under way. The U.S. is deploying armed forces in the Asia-Pacific region in a bid to finally aim to contain China. These two facts clearly indicate what the final goal of this strategy is.

In fact, the U.S. is busy deploying in south Korea THAAD which has China within the radius of its operation. Those concerned of the U.S. Department of Defense are openly saying that the development of ultra modern supersonic missile is aimed to cope with China's development of supersonic weapons.

The reality proves that the U.S. is mulling finally attaining its criminal goal for world hegemony by totally containing a "state posing greatest threat" to the world.

It is by no means fortuitous that military experts are commenting that the U.S. new military strategy making military conflict with China a fait accompli is an "operation plan simulating the third world war".

The U.S. is the arch criminal disturbing world peace and security and the most shameless empire of evils.

The new military strategy is driving military confrontation and contradiction between the U.S. and China into the worst phase.

The human history branded all attempts to become the emperor of the world as a futile act of inviting a ruin.

Many countries and regions of the world are strongly countering the U.S. moves for hegemony.

The U.S. should properly face up to history and reality and stop acting rashly.

The Kosan Fruit Farm is a large fruit producer associated with patriotic devotion of President Kim Il Sung and leader Kim Jong Il.

Marshal Kim Jong Un clearly indicated the orientation and ways of building the farm into the world-level fruit producer and wisely led the drive to build a socialist fairyland and ideal village at the foot of Chol Pass associated with the Songun leadership feats of Kim Jong Il.

In hearty response to the noble intention of Kim Jong Un to translate the ardent desire of Kim Jong Il into a reality as soon as possible, the officials and members of the Construction Shock Brigade 618 brought about miracles and innovations startling the world people in the drive to turn the farm into a wonderful land of bliss in the era of the Workers' Party in the revolutionary spirit of self-reliance despite difficulties and ordeals.

Officials and shock brigade members were commended for their labor feats performed in the construction of the farm.

The title of DPRK labor hero went to An Hung Hak, political instructor of the Kangdong County Battalion of the Pyongyang City Brigade.

Kim Jong Il Youth Honor Prize was conferred on Kim Hyon Chol, chairman of the primary youth league committee of the South Phyongan Provincial Brigade, and Han Kum Sok, staff member of the North Hwanghae Provincial Brigade, Ri Kum Chol, member of the Jagang Provincial Battalion of the Brigade of the Ministry of Electric Power Industry, and Kim Myong Il, member of the Waudo District Battalion of the Nampho City Brigade.
The title of Driver of Merit went to four persons, Order of National Flag First Class to 45 persons, Order of Labour to 38 persons, Order of National Flag Second Class to 420 persons, Order of National Flag Third Class to 821 persons, Distinguished Military Service Medal to 33 persons and Medal of Merit to 1 362 persons.

A decree of the Presidium of the Supreme People's Assembly on awarding state citations was promulgated on Thursday.

Protesters angry at plans to allow Burkina Faso's President Blaise Compaore to extend his 27-year-rule have set fire to parliament.

Correspondents say the city hall and ruling party headquarters are also in flames.

A huge crowd is surging towards the presidential palace and the main airport has been shut.

MPs have suspended a vote on changing the constitution to allow Mr Compaore to stand for re-election next year.

We should do this to celebrate our elections and passing of legislation too.

ISTANBUL (AP) -- Militant leaders from the Islamic State group and al-Qaida gathered at a farm house in northern Syria last week and agreed on a plan to stop fighting each other and work together against their opponents, a high-level Syrian opposition official and a rebel commander have told The Associated Press.

...

IS - the group that has seized nearly a third of Syria and Iraq with a campaign of brutality and beheadings this year - and al-Qaida's affiliate in Syria, known as the Nusra Front, have fought each other bitterly for more than a year to dominate the rebellion against Syrian President Bashar Assad.

The Associated Press reported late last month on signs that the two groups appear to have curtailed their feud with informal local truces. Their new agreement, according to the sources in rebel groups opposed to both IS and Nusra Front, would involve a promise to stop fighting and team up in attacks in some areas of northern Syria.
Meanwhile, in the U.S. Senate...

After this hits CNN the average American will of a sudden be an expert on why PPP is a terrible form of measuring an economy.

Is there a GAF thread about this yet? I want to troll the libs and lickspittles by pointing out that the internal contradictions of capitalism (specifically, its descent into dogmatism during and after the collapse of the Soviet Union) have brought it low before the superiority of the One True Science.

I guess the end of history too has an end. :hitler

Future historians - that is, assuming there are humans still around to contemplate history - may one day point to House Resolution 758 as the single piece of legislation that sparked a global conflagration between two leading nuclear powers.

This is not hyperbole.

When political veteran Ron Paul says the House passed what he ranked as “one of the worst pieces of legislation ever,” well, we had better sit up and switch off CNN, especially when that legislation happens to involve a historical heavyweight like Russia.

Russia does have a shit ton of of natural gas that our energy overlords would rather take then buy. What's a few trillion $ of taxpayer money if they get their private hands and most of the worlds natural gas?

after a nuclear war? :neogaf

makes more sense to fuck Russia's economy and wait for the current government to collapse. Putin is probably too strong to go down anytime soon though.
