North Korea's foreign minister said on Monday that U.S. President Donald Trump had declared war on North Korea and that Pyongyang reserves the right to take countermeasures, including shooting down U.S. strategic bombers even if they are not in the country's air space.

"The whole world should clearly remember it was the U.S. who first declared war on our country," Foreign Minister Ri Yong Ho told reporters in New York.

We've been at war with them since 1950.   There has been a 'ceasefire' but never an end to the war.

South Koreans think revenge is a major motivator for him.

War was never declared.

America never formally declared war.   North and South Korea consider it a war.   China considers it a war.  Russia considers it a war.

I'm sure the guys at the Chosin Reservoir thought it closely resembled war.

Ah, well, one can't expect people who grew up in the one country that fully embraced Orwell's 1984 as a how-to-manual to have an accurate recollection of history.

They don't see having their army roll south as an act of war.   It was an effort to free the south.

They don't see having their army roll south as an act of war.   It was an effort to free the south.

But that is as flawed as "Oceania has always been at war with Eastasia", and disingenuous as well:  the invasion of the south took place at Stalin's behest with the intent of bogging down the U.S. so he could launch an invasion of Western Europe.  Stalin died and his immediate successor, Malenkov, called off the invasion plans, leaving China and North Korea with millions of casualties for nothing.

Which makes this a good time to tell the Malenkov joke:

Three zeks are commiserating in the gulag about their fate.  One asks the other why he is in the labor camp.  "I opposed Malenkov," he replies.  The first says, "Ah, I'm here because I supported Malenkov."  They turn to their fellow prisoner and ask, "Why are you here?"  "I'm Malenkov."

It was a mistake for the United States not to have declared war in 1950. The Framers never intended for the US to become entangled in endless conflicts without a DOW. The politicians can claim these "conflicts" are not war but tell that to the grunt on the ground. :shrug:

Why were reporters even listening to this guy?  Shouldn't NK officials be personna non grata?
