Take a look at the Korean Peninsula and consider a simple question: North Korea is one of the poorest, most heavily sanctioned, and isolated countries in the world. It struggles to keep its electrical grid running, and its agricultural sector is in constant decline. Yet, despite these challenges, it...

Seven years later, Chinese President Xi Jinping and his wife made their second visit to North Korea. Most Westerners have never been to North Korea. They know almost nothing about its people, its education system, its daily life, its history, or how a country survives decades of sanctions, isolation, military pressure, and ideological demonization. But in their imagination, North Korea already exists as a completed villain template. Dark. Backward. Brainwashed. Poor. Disposable. A cartoon state built for Western moral theater. China has been placed into the same narrative machine, only on a larger scale. Not a civilization. Not a country. Not 1.4 billion human beings with history, memory, labor, grief, ambition, and survival. Just “the authoritarian threat.” A giant villain with ports, factories, missiles, AI models, high-speed rail, engineers, and 5,000 years of civilizational continuity. That is how Western ideology works. First, it removes human complexity. Then it replaces reality with a label. Then it treats the label as evidence. “Dictatorship.” “Regime.” “Threat.” “Axis.” “Rogue state.” “Authoritarian bloc.” Once the label is installed, no fact is allowed to disturb it. If a sanctioned country survives, it is propaganda. If its people are educated, it is indoctrination. If life expectancy rises, it is ignored. If it builds industry, it is militarization. If it resists Western pressure, it is aggression. This is why the West misunderstands both China and North Korea. It does not study them as societies. It consumes them as villains.

#WATCH | ANI National Security Summit 2.0: DRDO Chairman Dr Samir V Kamat says, "For short-range ballistic missiles, the Pralay is now in the final stages of testing. With respect to hypersonic, we are working on two programs, the hypersonic glide missile and the hypersonic cruise missiles. The glide missile will come out first. We should be doing the first trials fairly soon. And that is at a more advanced stage than the cruise missile. The cruise missile program has not yet been sanctioned, although we are working on the various technologies which will get into the cruise missile..." "For short-range ballistic missiles, the Pralay is now in the final stages of testing and should be ready. Then we have some of our strategic missiles, which can be converted to tactical usage for the medium range and the long range. With respect to hypersonic, we are working on two programs, the hypersonic glide missile and the hypersonic cruise missiles. The hypersonic cruise missiles is one which has a scramjet engine and it is powered during its flight. The hypersonic glide missile is a missile which uses a booster to give it initial velocity, and then it just glides without any powering. The glide missile will come out first. We should be doing the first trials fairly soon. And that is at a more advanced stage than the cruise missile. The cruise missile program has not yet been sanctioned, although we are working on the various technologies which will get into the cruise missile. Recently, we have done a scramjet propulsion for more than 1,000 seconds. So that's been a major achievement, and once the program is sanctioned, we'll convert the scramjet propulsion into a working missile system. And I think that should take about five years after the sanction."

Israel launched a defensive and preemptive strike against Iran’s nuclear operations. Here’s what we know so far. Israel targeted Iran’s nuclear sites, their ballistic missile programs, nuclear infrastructure, engineers, and nuclear scientists, and its top military commanders, including the Chief of Staff and the head of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard, a US designated terrorist organization that arms and funds groups like Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Houthis. These attacks unfolded in over five waves and at over 100 quality targets in operations that included aircrafts and additional on the ground intelligence activity. This is not a war between Israel and the Iranian people. This is a fight to stop a terrorist regime from acquiring the most dangerous weapon on earth. According to the IAEA, the UN nuclear watchdog, Iran is now capable of producing up to 15 nuclear bombs. In the last few months and while pretending to negotiate a deal with the US in good faith, Iran has accelerated its nuclear enrichment and weapons program. Iran is the head of the Middle Eastern snake. Their fingerprints can be found in every single bloody conflict in the region. Iran is the greatest sponsor of terrorism in the world and their regime oppresses their own people with their Islamist ideology. Israel cannot allow Iran to have a nuclear weapon. The Middle East cannot allow Iran to have a nuclear weapon. Because a nuclear Iran doesn’t just threaten Israel, it threatens the entire world.

☢️Col. Lawrence Wilkerson: ‘IRAN HAS ALREADY WON…if they want nuclear weapons, they will make one.’ 'I think Iran is perched right now exactly where Haaretz said they were. All they have to do to win is not lose, and All the United States and Israel have to do is achieve a spectacular victory, and they aren't going to do that. So Iran’s already won. The question is, How much damage is Donald Trump and what’s left of the American military going to be done to in the interim? And How much damage is going to be done to that military, particularly its maritime elements? They have not unleashed anything significant yet on a US warship. They could and they might, and that's the end of that warship if they do. The carrier is holding off at least 1300 kilometres. Not just because of range. Because there are some missiles that can go that far. It's because the carrier is so capable of getting up to flight speed so fast that once it has a warning of a missile launch, it can itself defend fairly successfully without subsurface, surface, or airborne assets. If the carrier moves at the right moment, at the speed it's capable of achieving, it's going to be very hard to hit it in that terminal phase. But they would ultimately fail with a hypersonic missile. I take my experience from Kang Sok-Ju and Kye-Gwan in North Korea in October 2002, when we went to present them with an economic package the President and even the Vice President thought would be persuasive in getting them to back off their nuclear programme. Kye-Gwan looked right at us and said…we already have nuclear weapons. So I know how we were fooled by North Korea. I know North Korea in 2002 was working with Iran, not just on underground fortifications but also on nuclear weapons, how to match warhead to missile. So Ted, I think, is right. If the Iranians want a nuclear weapon, they'll make one.’ — Former Chief of Staff at the State Department, Col. Lawrence Wilkerson on the latest episode of New Order Watch the full interview in the quoted post below👇
