    I don’t care if garbage balloons count as an invasion or not. Even if they do count, South Korea still invaded first.

    South Korea does not have control over its own military. The South Korean military is commanded and controlled by the United States, and North Korea is right to see that as a threat.

    South Korea asked the United States to have operational control of their military back, and the United States said no.

    South Korea is objectively a puppet and colony of the United States. If you do not have control of your own military, you are a puppet.

    And I’m not surprised to see you defending the West’s puppet, as disgusting as that is.

    It seems to me this is more an issue of you liking North Korea and not liking South Korea.

    Every American owes an apology to North Korea for what America did to them.

    There will be a reckoning one day. One day Americans will be taught about what they did, and it will weigh on the conscience of American schoolchildren, just like all the other American atrocities.

      Ah, so now we’ve gone from “it’s not an invasion” to “they did it first.”

      Also, this has nothing to do with America, so I’m not even sure why you’re bringing it up. Is the U.S. the only country that matters in the world?

        Ah, so now we’ve gone from “it’s not an invasion” to “they did it first.”

        I said that several comments ago.

        I said: “But even if you want to consider a balloon an invasion, the South still invaded first when it aerial dropped propaganda.”

        My first response to you was about how North Korea was acting in response to what South Korea did first.

          And my first response to you is that both would be invasions by your own logic.

          But let’s also look at your “they did it first, therefore they are in the wrong” argument:

          Hamas has been around since 1987 and has been firing rockets into Israel the entire time. Even if that doesn’t count, based on an agreed criteria that a balloon that has the ability to be used as a weapon counts as an invasion, Hamas used incendiary balloons on Israel in 2018.

          Therefore, based on your logic, Israel was in the right to invade Gaza, what with Gaza being under Hamas control at the time.

          Do you believe Israel was in the right?
