Many Youth and Students in DPRK Volunteer to Join or Rejoin KPA
Pyongyang, October 16 (KCNA) – The whole DPRK is full of the will to annihilate the scum of the ROK who violated its inviolable sovereignty and security.
Millions of young people have turned out in the nationwide struggle to wipe out the ROK scum who committed a serious provocation of violating the sovereignty of the DPRK through a drone infiltration into its capital city to push the tense situation to the brink of war, which precipitates their self-destruction, and are now making impudent remarks like a guilty party filing the suit first.
If a war breaks out, the ROK will be wiped off the map. As it wants a war, we are willing to put an end to its existence.
The passionate young people are determined to turn out in a sacred war of destroying the enemy with the arms of the revolution. Their great enthusiasm for joining the army is being displayed in all the places of the country, including worksites where a campaign for increased production is underway, construction sites, farms having a bumper harvest, and educational institutions.
According to data available, more than 1.4 million youth league officials and youth and students across the country volunteered to join or rejoin the Korean People’s Army on October 14 and 15.
The young people’s zeal for joining the army is an eruption of the hatred and retaliatory spirit of the younger generation who are determined to punish the scum who committed a hideous crime to ignite a war at any cost, and end the horrible evil relationship.
Youth and students across the country signed the petitions for joining or rejoining the army out of the pledge to find out the heinous confrontation maniacs and criminals to the last one and cut off their windpipes.
The commanding officers and members of the Paektusan Hero Youth Shock Brigade, the young people of the Kim Chaek Iron and Steel Complex, the Taean Heavy Machine Complex, the Pyongyang Kim Jong Suk Textile Mill and many other working youth across the country volunteered to join the army with the spirit to resolutely wipe out the sworn enemy seeking to bring down their socialist system that represent their life and soul, and their dignified life and happiness.
At the universities across the country, including Kim Il Sung University, Kim Chaek University of Technology, Phyongbuk University of Technology and Sariwon Kye Ung Sang University of Agriculture, many students, including discharged officers and men, vowed to make the lunatics experience the real war and showers of fire.
The number of the angry revengers of the rising generation determined to plunge the heinous enemy into an abyss of final ruin, those who volunteered to join or rejoin the KPA, is on the increase with the passage of time. -0-

See, this is my main point of disagreement. In my experience, the majority of American leaders truly do believe their own bullshit. A lot of the ghouls in power in America really think “China will collapse any day now because Communism no food, Communism no house, Communism no money!” The reasons the US military says they need to go to war with China in 5 years is not, in my opinion, because they think it’s necessary, but because they think it’s a great marketing slogan. “WWIII is coming in 5 years, we need to increase military spending now!” It’s all about money. And if war with China actually does break out, the USA economy will instantly collapse due to supply shocks. There definitely are a few neo-cons who do want to go to war with China, but personally I would estimate those hawks are outnumbered by fake-hawks by about 3-to-1.
In terms of the presidential candidates, Trump actually kind of likes Xi, Waltz has said China doesn’t have to be our enemy, and Vance is so fully bought by Silicon Valley that his billionaire owners would never let him start WWIII. I think Kamala is basically bought out by similar corporate interests to Vance - if Kamala goes to war with China she does not get any more donations from Apple (whose phones are made in China) etc. So that’s a big reason why I think the pro-China-war faction will not get what they want. They’ll ask the president to send 1,000 drones to Pyongyang to take out
and the president and his or her neoliberal advisers will just look at them like 
I hope you’re right- though I suppose the question then becomes whether their bullshit, or even their real economic interests and corporate pressure (since most corpos despite their infinite issues don’t tend to want WW3) outweighs US hubris, the neocon agenda, and the collective western imperialist elites’ attempts to keep the world under a “unipolar” order of western domination- one that unified and reached its zenith under the US, but could be argued to have been building for 500 years. Can the west accept Africa, Asia (south, east, west), and Latin America truly breaking free and asserting equality? I’m less optimistic than you, particularly when it comes to institutional culture and structural issues (contradictions) which mean that the west and the US in particular may not be able to afford war, but they- or rather, their political system- inherently also cannot afford peace and this equality…
I figured Trump/Vance were the less demented of the 2 competing fascist factions of the US, for what it’s worth- still do (at least when it comes to foreign policy). I know Trump had said similar (and I think there’s reason to believe him in that regard- though whether his opinion counts for anything vs. that of the blob/neocons and war lobby is another thing), but I didn’t know Waltz has said “China doesn’t have to be our enemy.” Fingers crossed, I suppose…
