>The problem is, that collapse is inevitable

This has been said since day 1 of the truce in 1953.

North Korea is many things, but the western propaganda about their being perpetually on the brink of collapse for 63 years is utter bullshit. It's a very stable regime.

When you're executing family members with AA guns, and have experienced famine so prolonged and severe that it's altered the physiology and intellectual capacity of generations, "Stability" isn't in it.

Don't worry. You wouldn't be the first person to fall for this type of fabrication.

Wow, a Slate article that says it "may not be true" while you ignore the other irrefutable part of my statement.
