meanwhile, progressives in the US who would describe NK as a human rights disaster are fully behind the Zionists and their genocide

Kim Jung Un supports Hamas, just like Iran and Syria
is just the latest remix of Bush Jr's "Axis of Evil" speech.
I can't imagine how the logistics of a NK to Gaza support network is supposed to even function. Yes, it makes Kim look cool on here, but none of it really passes the smell test. Not when the US is impounding Iranian cargo ships with impunity and suffocating the entire Levant with surveillance tech.
Unless NKorea has a teleporter, I'm not clear on how anything they might try to send can reach anyone currently in Gaza.
The DPRK has been supporting Palestine for decades - this isn't BS or new
I have seen at least two pictures of Hamas militants with what were identified as North Korean made RPGs. I think they're able to get supplies into Gaza the same way Hamas gets other supplies in.
Conflict zones like the middle east are hot markets for arms dealers and surplus materiel tend to accumulate there. I doubt there's any direct conduit between the two countries though
identified as North Korean made RPGs
Identified by whom? The same folks that gave us "40 decapitated babies", "they bombed their own hospital", and "we did DNA testing on a random skull fragment to confirm Hamas killed Shani Nicole Louk"?
I think they're able to get supplies into Gaza the same way Hamas gets other supplies in.
The Hamas group has a (likely entirely overstated) tunnel network across borders and a (likely entirely overstated) Mediterranean smuggling operation. That gets you a very limited set of imports from Egypt and perhaps Lebanon, Syria, Cyprus, or Turkey if they can really stretch it without the IDF noticing. None of these countries are doing regular direct trade with a small largely agrarian country on the opposite side of Asia. Nothing from North Korea is getting through the Suez Canal, nevermind it getting packed in across the entire length of Russia. Certainly not a militia's worth of rocket propelled grenades. Come the fuck on.
This shit is almost certainly all home grown. From Egypt or Syria? Very likely. Robbed from the Israelis? Definitely possible. Brought in from Iraq? Sure. Brought in from Iran? Maybe. Brought in from Ukraine? Not outside the bounds of possibility. Brought in from the opposite side of the hemisphere? Give me a fucking break. Might as well claim they're receiving arms from Haiti or Nunavut.
real north korean arms are in the levant from when the USSR facilitated them sending arms there, it's not at all unbelievable they're genuine but a bit beyond the pale to suggest korea specifically shipped it to Hamas recently. the news mega is a little weird about id'ing weapon provenance and extrapolating direct shipments/support when even iranian weapons are very likely mostly from middle men procuring them from the direct support iran gives iraqi groups or hezbollah
No, the identification was not produced by the IOF, but other users in the news mega. Anyway you're clearly an expert so I'll defer to you.
I mean, Hezbollah was literally trained by the DPRK who also taught them the tunneling system. They fought very well against Israel in 2006.
Long tunnel

Containersubmarines ...obviously.
This is what a real representative of the international community looks like folks
North Koreans forced to push Palestinian trains.
I heard they resurrect your dead grandparents to push the train too. And they have to look at a picture of Kim the whole time or they kill them again 😢
and god help you if there's any dust on that picture
You support Palestine when North Korea is sending them aid!?
Based
Do the sunglasses look like 'the ones that get added to memes to make something cool' to anyone else? Clearly they are real, for some reason when I focus on them for a while they look like they were edited on.
Kim "deal with it" Jong-un
Dang you basically summed up my entire comment with like a handful of words :/
Mad respect 🫡
this sounds based af, but what does "ordered ways to help Palestinians" actually mean?
Means get more weapons to Hamas, which was already using DPRK weaponry before Oct 7
Digging the haircut
Im so powerless to do anything. It makes me feel good that someone in a position to help somehow is.
