Tens of thousands of North Koreans took to Kim Il Sung Square in Pyongyang in support of an attack on the United States today.
The rally, in reaction to the North Korean leader, Kim Jong Un’s preparation order to prepare for rocket strikes on the U.S. Mainland, South Korea, Guam and the Hawaiin Islands drew a multitude of soldiers, workers and students out to the square in a visible show of support.

This rally came just a day after the United States Forces Korea announced that two B-2 Spirit bombers had made a non-stop 6,500-mile trip to South Korea from America’s midwest to the Korean peninsula to drop inert munitions as a part of the Foal Eagle Training exercise. The B-2s, assigned to the 509th Bomb Wing at Whitman Air Force Base in Missouri, made the round-trip back to their homebase after completing their mission in South Korea.
Saying that North Korea is “not a paer tiger,” rockets in that country were put on stand-by for a possible strike on U.S. interests.
While North Korea routinely issues threats, the threats issued so far this year are more intense than in most cases and are a cause for concern for South Korea as well as the United States.
