North Korea Says It Will Severe All Rail and Road Links with South Korea

This is really just symbolic because the road and railway lines are not being used anyway:

North Korea’s military said it will cut off all roads and railways connected to South Korea starting Wednesday and build “strong defense structures” in the areas in response to South Korea-U.S. military maneuvers.

“A project will be launched first on October 9 to completely cut off roads and railways connected to” South Korea and “fortify the relevant areas of our side with strong defense structures,” the general staff of the North Korean People’s Army (KPA) said in a report carried by the Korean Central News Agency, noting the measures will “completely separate” North Korea’s territory from that of South Korea.

You can read more at the link, but North Korea is probably betting that whenever another leftwinger gets elected to President of South Korea they will pay to rebuild these road and rail links anyway.

Let them build all the defenses they want, who cares.

I’m sure Flyingsword doesn’t care.

It seems to me that Flyingsword is pushing for conflict between South and North Korea. 

This isn’t surprising, given the warmongering tendencies often seen among American right-wingers.
