Just a few thoughts and comments on the reactionary imperialist boss's Obama 's remarks about the so-called" collapse of the DPRK " which was noislly trumpeted by the media . Of course it is no secret at all that what the US wants to see is the overthrew of the DPRK government and the smashing up of the socialist system in the DPRK . The US of course employs many tactics to do this :pressure , threat , sanctions , the strategy of trying to coax or force the DPRK into "reform" and "opening up " which destroyed or nearly destroyed many socialist countries . Obama appears to think that Korean style socialism will be destroyed through the Internet , basically through a new version of the old "strategy of peaceful transition " first dreamed up by Dulles and Kennedy which is basically intensified and aggresive ideological and cultural infiltration coupled with extreme psychological war .
However Obama is a dimwit , a thicko. US propagandists have long dreamed of the "collapse "of the DPRK and have noisily promoted it .Even as long back as 1991 "Newsweek " claimed that the DPRK would collapse . Throughout the 1990s there were reports of the impeding collapse of the DPRK . The book KIM JONG IL Great Man mocks the "collapsed theory of collapse " because saying how the US imperialists talked about the 3 months or 3 years theory . Sadly this kind of nonsense was believed by some on the Left and I even remember a certain person working in Korea solidarity telling me in 1996 how the DPRK 'only had enough food for 1 month and would collapse ' after that . Of course this was something the person had read in the imperialist press, I told them it was not true . Sure enough the DPRK did not collapse . Basically the US imperialists and indeed some so-called "lefties " do not understand the might of the independent national economy , the single-hearted unity of the people and the Juche Idea.
The idea of the DPRK is based on a number of fallacies and misunderstandings . Firstly , it is based on the idea that socialism collapsed in the USSR and other socialist countries. In fact no such thing happened. Betrayed or frustrated yes but collapsed no . The USSR did not collapse into anarchy or chaos but the USSR and CPSU were dissolved by the decree of a traitor. Secondly, the fallacious assumption that the DPRK is a copy of another model , that it is simply another USSR or GDR or Bulgaria or Mongolia . This is not true . Korean-style socialism guided by the Juche Idea and Songun Idea is distinct from Soviet style socialism or revisionist style socialism. I remember visiting Hungary in the 1980s . I remember getting off the train in Budapest and almost immediately being accosted by people saying "change money ,change money " , they were black market currency dealers. Although Hungary was meant to be a socialist country until 1989 there were differences between the rich and poor and one or two beggars on the street. Western and American influence was prevalent with a McDonalds in Vaci Utca , people talking about rubbishy Madonna records and even praise for Thatcher (!!! OMG). It did not take a genius to work out that Hungarian socialism was on its way out . However during 9 visits to the DPRK I have never seen any black market currency dealers let alone at the station or airport. I have never seen beggars in the DPRK . Crime is virtually non-existent. If you drop 10 dollars on the floor the honest people will return it to you.. Rather than fawning on the US and idealising it the DPRK carries out anti US education and there is the Sinchon Ri Museum exposing the US atrocities during the Korean War . Dear respected Marshal KIM JONG UN said "that illusion about the enemy just means death and any slightest illusion about the enemy may lead to the renunciation of the revolution and eventually spoil it."
Socialism in the DPRK is strong because it came about as a result of the people's struggle for independence led by President KIM IL SUNG , it was not the gift of another country. Socialism in the DPRK is strong because it is based on the Juche Idea and Songun Idea .
Korean-style socialism led by dear respected Marshal KIM JONG UN will still exist and prevail even when the name of Obama has been forgotten and is consigned to dusty old history books !
