North Korea has a new ballistic missile system, and more importantly, they’ve got a new propaganda video touting it. In what may be the greatest work of cinematography I’ve ever seen, North Korean dictator Kim Jung Un makes an appearance with several of his generals, playing out what looks like a scene from a 1980s action movie. Unintentional humor is beyond words.
This is truly amazing stuff.
It is imperative that you watch the North Korean propaganda video now.

Remember when CNN’s Jim Scuitto (a former Obama official) essentially proclaimed the North Korean dictator dead a few years ago? On the contrary, this dude is out here staring at his watch in a leather jacket–before ripping off a pair of gas station sunglasses–in the midst of dramatic music and film edits. After the video cuts, we see a flashing light and a loud alarm. Then there are screaming soldiers shouting for launch. Next, we see the missile explode from various angles.
The fun doesn’t end there, though. The music changes to be more celebratory after the launch. That’s when we see Kim Jung Un and his generals fist-pumping, before cutting to shots of soldiers hugging and crying. Finally, a still shot of the North Korean leader, cosplaying as Neo from “The Matrix,” graces the screen to end things.
Our enemies have clearly been empowered, but that’s not the point. For all the freak-out over Donald Trump saying nice things about Kim Jung Un from time to time, the latter sure wasn’t launching new ballistic missiles and putting out propaganda videos that look like they took their inspiration from “Top Gun.” It’s almost as if foreign policy isn’t as simple as just reading some stern words off a teleprompter and not saying mean things on Twitter. You wouldn’t believe it!
This is not a coincidence. Joe Biden’s weakness is apparent, and his constant gaffes on the world stage have made the United States a laughing stock among tyrants across the globe. America’s foreign adversaries are seeing cracks in the wall and have decided to start chipping away. I don’t say that with any happiness. I say that because it didn’t have to be this way. Chaos wasn’t inevitable. Unfortunately, that is what we’ve gotten. We can only hope things don’t get worse and that North Korea’s aggression stays within the confines of badly produced propaganda videos.
