    "We had no idea," says the thumbnail, sorry to be snarky but there are 75 million people who knows exactly what's going on. It's a part of a Mexican standoff that has lasted 69(nice) years since the ceasefire in 1953. They build the Koksan, we build the K-9. They launch missiles, our live fire exercises are non-nuclear bunker-busters. That picture where two leaders shake hands in Panmunjom is funny, because it's between two leaders pouring billions to drop bombs to each other's heads. It is basically our little "mutually assured destruction", and South Korea is spending more on the military than the whole economy of North Korea just to maintain the balance without "playing dirty".

Perfect for the trench warfare. Hussein used chemical or biological on Iran and dissident peoples in Iraq. Well documented. Most of the world did not care very much. Hussein got on the shit list for invading Kuwait. Our CIA, for whatever reason, misinformed the President and Congress about what Hussein was doing and probably why.

    ​@@jeostone5255 Yes, the agricultural practices aren't up to modern standards in many farms there and the rate of mechanization could be improved, but that isn't "the only reason". Far from it. The rice yield per hectare for example is close to international norms according to the UN. The surface area is indeed relatively large, but most of it is rugged and mountainous terrain. Only 11% of the landmass is suitable for cereal cultivation, the cropping season is short and rainfall is irregular. All that makes it very difficult to produce enough food with the international sanctions slapped on.

    The tunnels would be more of a threat if it were in a larger part of the continent, but it's just the Korean peninsula. From there, it would be easier to spot via satellite imageries and destroy the entrances via missiles, artilleries, or whatever. You still need to pump oxygen deep underground (other than accounting for food and supplies for survival underground); it's not like air will circulate properly.
