North Korea Is Preparing For War?

North Korea says it has had 800,000 citizens join the army to fight against us.

Quote:SEOUL (Reuters) — North Korea claims that about 800,000 of its citizens volunteered to join or reenlist in the nation's military to fight against the United States, North Korea's state newspaper reported on Saturday.

About 800,000 students and workers, on Friday alone, across the country expressed a desire to enlist or reenlist in the military to counter the United States, the Rodong Sinmun newspaper reported.

"The soaring enthusiasm of young people to join the army is a demonstration of the unshakeable will of the younger generation to mercilessly wipe out the war maniacs making last-ditch efforts to eliminate our precious socialist country, and achieve the great cause of national reunification without fail and a clear manifestation of their ardent patriotism," the North's Rodong Sinmun said.

My first thought was "what are these people signing up for?"

I get it that they're joining the military, but do they think we're going to invade them or they're going to invade us?

That's why it makes no sense to me because, if we would happen to go to war, it would be an air war and they used to have a strong navy but I heard most of their boats and submarines are old?

Even if they do still have a strong navy and try to fight us with that and their outdated air force full of old planes.

Are they just making up that big number to make it sound like they're ready to fight us because they know our planes, ships, and submarines would wipe their off the face of the earth?
