Kim Jong Un orders military and nuclear weapons sector to prepare for war and vows to expand partnerships with 'anti-imperialist' countries

“Quick, Sgt. Tom — scatter Twinkies in a path to the nearest grocery store!”
“Alternate artillery loads loaded, sir! Fire Twinkies! *WHUMP* Fire pretzels! *WHUMP* Fire M&Ms! *WHUMP* Aaaaaaand Operation Breadcrumbs is... Lookit them go, sir — I don’t think we’ll need to call in the chocolate cake. We’ve already won this war.”
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] North Korea leader Kim Jong Un
...a.k.a. “Pudgy”...
has ordered his country's military, munitions industry and nuclear weapons sector to get ready for war following what he called unprecedented confrontational moves by the U.S., state media said on Thursday.

Speaking on the policy directions for the new year at a key meeting of the country's ruling party on Wednesday, Kim also said Pyongyang would expand strategic cooperation with 'anti-imperialist independent' countries, news agency KCNA reported.

North Korea has been expanding ties with Russia, among others, as Washington accuses Pyongyang of supplying military equipment to Moscow for use in its war with Ukraine, while Russia provides technical support to help the North advance its military capabilities.
