The Most Likely Way North Korea Will Fall Support me on Patreon: / oliverbahl Follow me on Twitter: / bahlfranke Link to sources: docs.google.com/document/d/1C...
i really hope that the communist government in mainland china collapses because this is the only possible way for north korea to collapse and korea will be reunifed under the capitalist government of south korea just like the germany reunified under the capitalist government of west germany, the territory of east germany was absorbed into it and became one germany, the capital of germany used to be bonn before the reunification, bonn city was the seat of capitalist government of west germany and the capital status was transferred to berlin upon reunification of germany
if the communist government in the mainland china collapses it is not the only north korea will collapse, laos and vietnam will soon follow to collapse as well, ending the communist bloc in asia, china will split into some countries, china loses all territories except china proper in exception of guangdong province which is likely to become independent due to people there are cantonese ethnics, they speak cantonese and not mandarin, they are not han chinese people ethnic so it's likely guangdong province will be independent country on it's own while hongkong becomes independent free city just like the city of danzig in poland during the 1920-1939
One thing that people tend to forget is that North Koreans have no generational experience or memory of ever having democracy or individual rights. Before the regime, Korea was occupied by Imperial Japan, and before the occupation, Korea was ruled by a monarchy. To most people, there is no real perception of a life other than one under authoritarianism.
The one thing you are forgetting....America has threatened them for 75 years. Why should they look to their number one fearful threat for advice on anything at all. We need to treat these people as if they were human. Something our leaders are not too good at.
Fun fact: The Nazis made a ton of fake British pounds to money bomb them but thought it was unnecessary because they were winning the war. It was basically an exact replica of the pound
@@crose7412 they exist in fiction. Are you talking about whats marketed as trade to [citizens marketed] as citizens? USD isn’t money and isnt used for purchases even when [marketing material says otherwise].
The north Korean institutions will be stable as long as China wants it around. If you look at the power structures of it will always have a way to sustain itself. There is only one way you can turn nk into sane and that is to buy it out but that will cost more money than it's worth
N.Korea has existed this long because the West lost focus. After the Soviet Union fell through in 1989, at that point, China was not yet economically big enough to challenge the U.S and N.Korea lacked a strong ally on the world stage...THE EARLY 90s were the time to INVADE N.Korea and put an end to this oppression. Instead, the West focussed instead on the middle East and China grew strong and protects N.Korea as a result
Only because china doesnt want us troops stationed on their borders, and reasonably so, if south korea annexed north korea without us troops leaving, theres not a single doubt that the us will station troops so they can antagonize both china and russia as a double whammy, if us milotary left south korea, china would be more open to allowing reunification, in the west we think of north korea as being the aggressor in their relationship with the us, but if you look at a map of us military bases in asia youd see the real story, not to say that nk isnt aggressive, but theyre only a product of their environment
on 1:13, that was the assassination of his brother Kim Jong-Nam, not uncle. Jong-nam was supposed to become leader but he was caught in 2001 trying to enter Japan with his son using fake passports to visit Disneyland. That's how Jong-un rose to the front of the line of succession.
indeed. worse of all, after all that had happened, he is still given a comfortable life, being allowed to live in luxury in macao under chinese protection. but he still cant stay still and went to malaysia where he was assassinated.
@@mxn1948 moments after he was assassinated, his son (who was in Norway or other european country) was taken by the CIA and is currently in the US and under protection
@@jpmnky He was executed by firing squad. not particularly gruesome as far as death sentences goes. However SK media tends to make up things about NK all the time, so in this case, they said he was killed by anti-aircraft cannon and turned into pink mist for clicks and it got picked up in the west.
I remember watching a documentary of someone that went to NK saying that when they went to a supermarket they could change their Chinese currency for north Korean’s one but they were forced to change it back to Chinese cash before getting out of it or they’d be punished. Really interesting.
i feel really bad for the average north koreans, even those who’d war for the state. every feasible option to topple the regime would be mass /civilian/ casualties, you literally melt from the outside in when u get enough radiation. seeing hiroshima “bodies” messed me up real bad
@@Wynnless not that easy? Sounds like you haven't been paying attention to history. Coup d'etats have been happening since Julius Caesar's reign over the Roman Empire. They're still happening to this day. I recommend you retake 9th - 12th grade history. Try paying attention this time.
Unfortunately North Korea’s forced collapse means you’re attacking China as well, that could be a danger. North Koreans are their own people now and with no government and potentially no country, unification isn’t really realistic and with current tension in the world it isn’t a viable option.
if the communist government in the mainland china will not collapse, north korea will never collapse and they will stay like that for more years to come because china is sending supply aid for north korea needs, if this will be cut off from north korea, it would be a big break for the north korean regime to collapse
@@MTC008 China is definitely going to collapse. Their one child policy had royalty screwed them over and by the year 2100, their whole population will be cut in half. If there are more older people and less of the productive Chinese to grow the economy, it’s going to be like the fall of Rome again.
@@davidmarjason4222 chinese population will stay a billion even if they broke up because more than 1.4 billion people live in proper china, and this china proper will stay at it's size and borders, uyghurs, the people who live in xinjiang province are just around 24 million people, mongolians who live in inner mongolia are around 25 million in population, tibetans are 3 million people only living in tibet and manchuria population is around 10 million, the only china proper province to separate and become it's own country is guangdong province, a province located in southern china proper region, because people that live there are cantonese ethnics and they are over 100 million people living there, so if china broke up like USSR, china will only lose 159 million people in their population in that of 1.5 billion people and another 7 million deduction from hongkong when they gain independence from china and more likely to become a free city like the city of danzig in poland during 1920-1939
You're delusional if you think that. You may want to get checked for paranoid schizophrenia. Edit: Although I would understand if you lived within N.Korea
@@arnabbiswasalsodeep More like morals end up causing mass carnage down the line, like The Most Serene Republic of Venice accidentally spawning colonialism by giving Spain its own good intentions or the USA giving moderate Muslims no reason to stop the systematic issues causing Islamic violence (like no apostates to be a counterweight) by garenteeing moderate Muslim countries from them.
Probably just want their country to not be invaded, especially through the USA's interference. They are basically are left with no choice if they want independence.
I like the idea of parachuting 5 pound (2.2Kg) packs of food into NK! Cover the populated area! Rice, vegetables, even meat! It would totally derail KJY’s claim of outsiders trying to destroy the country and imagine the North Korean People’s amazement that others have so much food it can be dropped by the plane load, or even Hypersonic missile if we really want to do it fast!
Do you even know who Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn is? Many see him as a pro-West and anti-communist. Second part is mostly true. However, many who love quoting him do not know he is a staunch Russian ultranationalist, more radical than United Russia. He's very anti-NATO and based on his past statements and writings, he'd put the blame completely on NATO for the crisis in Ukraine and be in complete support of the special military operation and the Putin regime. If he disliked something Putin did, it was probably because it wasn't nationalistic enough.
6:12 I love the irony in the line of, “That’s why the de-militarized zone separating the north and the south is armed to the teeth with defense systems.”
Interesting video, some of the ideas have been talked about (specifically the money bomb) but definitely the final option can definitely work. Especially because it's partially already happening now. So it would b interesting to see how this would effect the country in the next few decades. This will not happen overnight.
I highly doubt that information war type of thing would ever work since average people have no way to access that. It is very hard to start believing something completely opposite of what you have been taught for your entire life from the moment you were capable of learning anything. And once you start doubting you are in danger of losing your life. Majority of North Korean probable don't think they are missing anything because what they got is all they know. A lot of Russians actually protest against the war and end up going to jail. That would never ever happen in North Korea and even if somehow that happened, which again is impossible, nobody would ever know about it.
The footage that you showed in the beginning, was the assassination of his brother at the airport (I believe in Malaysia?), From a nerve toxin, by 2 female assassins. I believe one was Vietnamese. Anyway, the voiceover while the footage was shown, said it was his uncle. He did, in fact, assassinate his uncle as well, but the clip you showed was of his brother's assassination, not his uncle's.
The problem with the last theory (about info spreading through tech companies). When you have a country with starving citizens very few people can lead or even participate in an uprising. In conclusion, no food no uprising
Well... It's a really problematic situation, but in the XXI century, both "attack first not to let them attack your first" and "let's invade them to save their civilian" are really bad ideas.
Pretty much it's just going to have to be an issue of timing If only the DPRK would act the aggressor and begin a conventional conflict then you could justify removal of the regime because you're defending from the hostile nation literally having the tanks roll over your populace But if the DPRK never starts a conventional military conflict then there's nothing that can be done to them except observe and monitor, condemn their actions, and attempt to economically penalize them Those are the only options: basically the world is waiting for the DPRK to make an egregious huge mistake and only then will they act
@@rejvaik00 short of going full send and swinging for the fences by targeting the US with an atomic ICBM, a war between The United States and DPRK would be a proxy war where communist backed n. korea is fighting the US backed S. Korea. We've been there before and technically we are still ar war. Do you think that sanctions and other forms of economic punishment would be effective against a country with no real legitimate gdp? They hack and sell drugs to fund their nuclear weapons program, and China and Russia (if they have anything left after their current debacle) will supply them with arms to fight the American/S. Korean coalition. You are probably correct, but I just think it would be hard to impose sanctions when they don't do business with any of the countries that would cut them off.
@@allynsmith5026 hence the wording: " *attempt* to economically penalize them" There's literally nothing you can do to remove the North Korean regime as an outsider foreign nation unless they literally start a conventional military conflict
You can see some of these tunnel system entrances via satellite. Outside Nampo you’ll notice train tracks which go into a mountain and then don’t come out the other side. You can also see the tore down (or moved) launch pads.
Agreeing to not put any military bases in north Korea sounds like a perfectly reasonable trade if we could get China's cooperation in dismantling the regime.
China wouldn't go for it, as it doesn't exclude the possibility N. Korea could eventually join NATO, and diplomatic promises involving alliances has proven to be messy.
Why? Two Reasons: 1) Military Power, they got enough to make South Korea suffer, although they ultimately would loose a war and they got nuclear arms. 2) Their Big Brother, China, has their back.
@@Sebastian-sd1om Well, apparently the US is quite good at taking down countries. The troubles come after that, we cannot allow another blody forever war.
There is a clear difference, North Korea has nuclear capabilities. Or do you assess the North Korean military wouldn't follow orders in that case? Thats of course assuming Kim Jong Un doesnt have a manual direct way of launching a nuclear missile.
5:30 let’s not forget that invasion of the democratic people Republic of Korea would be at least 10 times worse then Afghanistan as you’re looking at 1 million North Koreans fighting to the death and are more trained than simple farmers
6 million* North Korea has the largest army and with 10 years experience. People don’t care about North Korea because it’s small, but it’s really a powerful country.
Ultimately how North Korea ends will be bloody, complicated, and drawn-out no matter how we go about it, if we go about it at all. Directly attacking them is out of the question: shoot one nuke and the rest will fly, ending us all. And an invasion will have to contend with mountainous terrain, a narrow choke-point into the most heavily fortified border on the planet, and a fanatical army willing to fight to the end. And that's NOT getting into the complications of China and/or Russia getting involved and we just have a repeat of the Korean War. Getting China and Russia on-board with a regime change is highly unlikely. We could entice them with perhaps better trade deals (China makes up over 90% of all trade with North Korea) or simply not having to constantly rein in their puppet from needlessly antagonizing the most powerful nation on earth. But what would the new regime look like? A liberal democracy like South Korea? What would stop them from unifying and thus giving the US a military base on China's front door? A naked military dictatorship? Not exactly different from what they currently have? And would the North Korean people and military accept it? Inciting revolt from within? That's going to raise questions of leadership, relations with South Korea, and the risk of a massive humanitarian crisis. If the regime falls, there would likely be a civil war between factions, along with large influx of refugees into China, and the South Korean and Chinese military forces would likely intervene to try and keep the insanity down. So I think what we should be asking is: how can we best keep the insanity contained to North Korea when the regime does fall?
Things would be simpler if there was no insistence on installing an American base in the territory where North Korea is. China is right in avoiding it.
The second time you mentioned it a few minutes later you got it correct but when you first showed the airport scene where his brother was walking by you called him his uncle not his brother.🙂👍✌
A few years ago I read an amazing article about a book… basically arguing for a structured buyout of the entire nk elite. The Kim family could either be paid off and sent into exile in a far away third country or quietly eliminated, then the entire governing elite would be paid off and given a stake in the future unified state. Every general. Every colonel. Every captain. Every commissar. Every factory, every farm. It’s the best idea I’ve heard so far. South Korea could do it. It’s be harder than Germany, for sure, but it can be done. Reunification would solve south koreas terrible demographic profile issues, injecting large numbers of young ethnic Koreans and staving off demographic collapse for several generations, possibly. The issue is the South Korean publics opinion on the issue. Younger people are less and less likely to even want reunification, lest it take away resources from them. Older people are always going to be the most pro reunification.
"Wonder Warthog reaches into his utility belt and pulls out a quantity of the powerful secret weapon: money!" Excellent idea, Assad. Forget armies and nukes and other destructive means. We could employ the true power of the U.S., our economic muscle. Bribe the buggers. Why not? England would sometimes buy her peace in the past.😁😜🤣
My opinion is When they have there big meetings basically the whole leadership from Kim to all his military leaders and commanders. Massive bombing campaign. South Korea the USA just launch Massive missile attacks. Land and sea. You don't need air unless you release the hardware before entering N.Korean airspace. Before this you use weapons to nutrilize there electrical grid. All firepower directed at the N Korean leadership and military commands. Try not to kill the citizens they have been through enough death and hardship. I really feel bad for the poor North Koreans. This dynasty has to go.
If he would in fact be that cornered there is nothing that would stop him from taking revenge on the west by sending nukes to South Korea. Just one needs to go through the defences and the whole operation would be a humanitarian Desaster. He knows that those nukes are his lifeline he can hold onto any time, which was super smart to be honest.
Claiming baseless things about North Korea, acting as if Yeomni Park is a good person and saying that the west should "liberate" and "democratise" through coups, sanctions, embargoes, nuclear strikes and invasion. Remember that the US left no building standing in the DPRK after the war and almost no one knows about it. Same goes for the terror in the south.
Thank you. Just looking at how the USA has behaved when Russia, Libya, and Iran came to them in good will to make a deal for peace, shows why trusting them is a fool's errand.
The assassination attempt idea was originally explained on La Femme Nikita, the original one. It would destabilize the entire region. Btw, that's exactly what happened with Hussein's death after the fact. Besides US cybertech alone would and has already crippled them.
1) Be a political party members 2) Get stocks, and defend your stock with your newfound power of Congress. 3) Relax on the beach of Cancun, Mexico while your people freeze over...

7:50 True. However, i feel a North Korean Government collapse is much different than what happened in the Middle East. Unlike Korea where for the most part, there isn't much of a divided ethnic culture, the Middle East however is very divided due to religion and a culture barrier. Heck, even Central Asia has a similar issue. The only issue that will happen in North Korea is China and possibly Russia getting involved to have their own protection similar to how the USSR did in eastern Europe. While South Korea may only get half of Southern North Korea.
Thank you, this will help me achieve one of my many goals. If there isn’t one about the world yet, please, create it. Once you’ve done that one as well, please I beg you… try to do one about the universe… Much appreciated. 👍
Actually they do - revolts happen exactly when people have nothing to eat and have nothing to lose. So why haven't the northkorean people revolted yet? What do they have to lose? Ohh thats right - they probably have actual homes they own, and not rental apartments like their southkorean or japanese neighbours live in nowadays.
The real reason why none of these has been done is because it benefits no one apart from everyday North Korean, whom as the sentence suggests, is cared by no one.
10:50 Ah, but "The Rentenmark (RM) was a currency issued on 15 November 1923 to stop the hyperinflation of 1922 and 1923 in Weimar Germany, after the previously used "paper" Mark had become almost worthless. It was subdivided into 100 Rentenpfennig and was replaced in 1924 by the Reichsmark.""
The dropping money idea won't work too well due to most North Korean that can already be using any other currency. There are sources that already say that using foreign currency on the black market is very common.
How do they manage to get hold of the foreign currency to buy goods from the black market? I read somewhere that the locals are only allowed to use their local currency, while the foreigners are permitted to use foreign currencies like USD only.
I can’t agree with edge assessment of the nuclear option. There are many types and yields of nuclear weapon and ICBM is only one delivery option. Shorter range sea-launched options are far more likely. The reason it’s a bad option is the immense civilian collateral damage that would result.
Um no. North Korea is a democracy - it has a ruling elite like the West, it has elections like the West, just like in the West you can only chose candidates that have already been selected for you by someone else, you CANT recall your "representatives" just like the West, the police shoot you if you try just like the West, you must go to work or you'll die hungry just like in the West, most people are poor just like in the West and everywhere else. Did i miss anything?
@@meganoobbg3387 north korea collapse is impossible to happen without the communist government in the mainland china collapsing first, this needs to happen before north korea can collapse

@@meganoobbg3387 russia is unlikely to interfere the issue because they have lost the communism already, and this is an asian thing so putin wouldn't care and let it happen
Best way: Let it happen on its own. Soon enough, the poverty & truth about the government & Kim will lead the population to a breaking point, revolting and turning the country slowly; without a stable, supportive population, North Korea will not be able to function, or at least be considered a country without brutal suppression & the death of over half of the population, which would only then lead to an international problem on its own as a genocide occurs. TLDR: North Korea's fate relies within itself.
It's been 70 years And they manage to build nukes and hypersonic missiles. Well, North Korean are also East Asian people, They are extremely hardworking people like of japan,china and south Korea. Dictatorship, Communist, monarchy or whatever else doesn't matter, if they got a good support in trade and technology from Europe,asia and america, North Korea can reach on par of South Korea with in few decade. Isolation and sanctions are crippling them.
The bad part about North Korea is even if we placed some well strategic military and different locations which would be swept in over in a matter of weeks we also are invading China which now we have two countries we would have to fight, but it's sad because negotiation talks don't work compromises don't work nothing works so what's a person supposed to do when you got to take on two countries
Unless Korean Unification also involves the withdrawal of US weaponry, personnel and a non-alignment status of Korea, neither China, nor Russia will let this happen. An aspect of Korean unification, must include Korean independence from the US. Really, our continued involvement on the peninsula will make this impossible. That we haven't even attempted a genuine end to the Korean War (no formal declaration of peace has ever been made, its effectively been a decades long cease fire) will continue to fuel an atmosphere of distrust, and the south as a fifth column government aimed at handing the fate of the Korean people over to Washington. And to be fair, our track record in the middle east, and latin america gives credibility to such suspicions.
The US needs to leave South Korea and let them and Japan worry about NK. They have large economies. It's time for them to grow up and take responsibility for themselves.
Mainly remove all trade restrictions and trade a lot with them, that's how USSR fell. Instead of war, use peace. Uplift and they will be free themselves.
The USSR is different from NK and it fell due to a multitude of complicated factors. Simply emulating how the USSR fell on NK doesn't guarantee that it will fall in the slightest.
How I see this whole thing is that Western governments just won't bother for the same reason they haven't already bothered for decades - not FINANCIALLY worth the cost. There's nothing in North Korea that's worth exploiting. No profit (no oil) = no war.

10:25 (after presenting many other solutions to the North Korea problem) "So maybe it's time to consider something out of the ordinary. KOHLS!" Good lord I love the magical timing of YT ads
What makes you think it won't be there for decades or centuries? It exhibits relative political stability (no coups or revolutions since 1940s, vs 6 for the south), has been through multiple different political administrations, has powerful countries protecting it, has thus far not gotten involved in anything too difficult to handle or disengage from in terms of wars outside the peninsula, and has nuclear weapons and a million person army?
The funny thing now is how the world has recently learned the Russian defense apparatus is largely held together with duct tape, and I feel something in this regard will happen sooner than later. I really think I will see the end of this country.
Are you at all familiar with the novel approach adopted by major nuclear powers towards the threat of destructive technologies, which is by definition quite ambiguous and may even include the utilization of cryptocurrencies by adversaries? On that premise, if democracies such as Britain or France are willing to risk a nuclear conflict over economic and/or information warfare, do you think the DPRK would refrain from doing the same, especially in a scenario in which the regime's elites find themselves cornered with no chance of survival? Only through integrating them into the international system may create an atmosphere of gradual change, which is also highly unethical and dangerous in the long run, since it would be an encouragement for other rogue states and dictatorships.
It is not unethical to integrate them into the international system, it is unethical to continue to exclude them. Who says democracy is best? Let it be proven by competition.
8:19 I think the solution is very impractical, while China is 90% of trade the amount Morth Korea put in raw numbers from china is pitiful, atmost it would be a slightly more difficult year. Even if it did work you would just make North Korean peoples lives more difficult. The same happned with all the other sanctions. They just vindicate the communist narrative that the west is out to get them, starving people isn’t the way you get them on you’re side, this is the reason the vast majority of North Koreans support their government.
If North Koreans use social media. Spread information about the brainwash their living in and announce that the outside world is sending food to NK. Then drop them food and NK's view of outside world as bad is fixed

Unfortunately North Korea’s forced collapse means you’re attacking China as well, that could be a danger.
North Koreans are their own people now and with no government and potentially no country, unification isn’t really realistic and with current tension in the world it isn’t a viable option.
if the communist government in the mainland china will not collapse, north korea will never collapse and they will stay like that for more years to come because china is sending supply aid for north korea needs, if this will be cut off from north korea, it would be a big break for the north korean regime to collapse

@@davidmarjason4222 chinese population will stay a billion even if they broke up because more than 1.4 billion people live in proper china, and this china proper will stay at it's size and borders, uyghurs, the people who live in xinjiang province are just around 24 million people, mongolians who live in inner mongolia are around 25 million in population, tibetans are 3 million people only living in tibet and manchuria population is around 10 million, the only china proper province to separate and become it's own country is guangdong province, a province located in southern china proper region, because people that live there are cantonese ethnics and they are over 100 million people living there, so if china broke up like USSR, china will only lose 159 million people in their population in that of 1.5 billion people and another 7 million deduction from hongkong when they gain independence from china and more likely to become a free city like the city of danzig in poland during 1920-1939

Interesting video, some of the ideas have been talked about (specifically the money bomb) but definitely the final option can definitely work. Especially because it's partially already happening now. So it would b interesting to see how this would effect the country in the next few decades. This will not happen overnight.
I highly doubt that information war type of thing would ever work since average people have no way to access that. It is very hard to start believing something completely opposite of what you have been taught for your entire life from the moment you were capable of learning anything. And once you start doubting you are in danger of losing your life. Majority of North Korean probable don't think they are missing anything because what they got is all they know. A lot of Russians actually protest against the war and end up going to jail. That would never ever happen in North Korea and even if somehow that happened, which again is impossible, nobody would ever know about it.
The footage that you showed in the beginning, was the assassination of his brother at the airport (I believe in Malaysia?), From a nerve toxin, by 2 female assassins. I believe one was Vietnamese. Anyway, the voiceover while the footage was shown, said it was his uncle. He did, in fact, assassinate his uncle as well, but the clip you showed was of his brother's assassination, not his uncle's.
The problem with the last theory (about info spreading through tech companies). When you have a country with starving citizens very few people can lead or even participate in an uprising. In conclusion, no food no uprising
Well... It's a really problematic situation, but in the XXI century, both "attack first not to let them attack your first" and "let's invade them to save their civilian" are really bad ideas.
Pretty much it's just going to have to be an issue of timing
If only the DPRK would act the aggressor and begin a conventional conflict then you could justify removal of the regime because you're defending from the hostile nation literally having the tanks roll over your populace
But if the DPRK never starts a conventional military conflict then there's nothing that can be done to them except observe and monitor, condemn their actions, and attempt to economically penalize them
Those are the only options:
basically the world is waiting for the DPRK to make an egregious huge mistake and only then will they act
take a look at russia and nato, and germany WW2. Who attacked so the enemy couldnt attack? or conquer
@@rejvaik00 short of going full send and swinging for the fences by targeting the US with an atomic ICBM, a war between The United States and DPRK would be a proxy war where communist backed n. korea is fighting the US backed S. Korea. We've been there before and technically we are still ar war. Do you think that sanctions and other forms of economic punishment would be effective against a country with no real legitimate gdp? They hack and sell drugs to fund their nuclear weapons program, and China and Russia (if they have anything left after their current debacle) will supply them with arms to fight the American/S. Korean coalition. You are probably correct, but I just think it would be hard to impose sanctions when they don't do business with any of the countries that would cut them off.
@@allynsmith5026 hence the wording: " *attempt* to economically penalize them"

@@belkYT yes but I don’t think everyone would fight to the death
@@avus-kw2f213 They will. They had enough bombing from USA in the past. This is last country on whole planet that totally relies on itself
Ultimately how North Korea ends will be bloody, complicated, and drawn-out no matter how we go about it, if we go about it at all. Directly attacking them is out of the question: shoot one nuke and the rest will fly, ending us all. And an invasion will have to contend with mountainous terrain, a narrow choke-point into the most heavily fortified border on the planet, and a fanatical army willing to fight to the end. And that's NOT getting into the complications of China and/or Russia getting involved and we just have a repeat of the Korean War.
Getting China and Russia on-board with a regime change is highly unlikely. We could entice them with perhaps better trade deals (China makes up over 90% of all trade with North Korea) or simply not having to constantly rein in their puppet from needlessly antagonizing the most powerful nation on earth. But what would the new regime look like? A liberal democracy like South Korea? What would stop them from unifying and thus giving the US a military base on China's front door? A naked military dictatorship? Not exactly different from what they currently have? And would the North Korean people and military accept it?
Inciting revolt from within? That's going to raise questions of leadership, relations with South Korea, and the risk of a massive humanitarian crisis. If the regime falls, there would likely be a civil war between factions, along with large influx of refugees into China, and the South Korean and Chinese military forces would likely intervene to try and keep the insanity down.
So I think what we should be asking is: how can we best keep the insanity contained to North Korea when the regime does fall?
Things would be simpler if there was no insistence on installing an American base in the territory where North Korea is. China is right in avoiding it.

Thanks for lesson. Were definitely going to need some day need sometime in the future.
A few years ago I read an amazing article about a book… basically arguing for a structured buyout of the entire nk elite. The Kim family could either be paid off and sent into exile in a far away third country or quietly eliminated, then the entire governing elite would be paid off and given a stake in the future unified state. Every general. Every colonel. Every captain. Every commissar. Every factory, every farm.
It’s the best idea I’ve heard so far.
South Korea could do it. It’s be harder than Germany, for sure, but it can be done. Reunification would solve south koreas terrible demographic profile issues, injecting large numbers of young ethnic Koreans and staving off demographic collapse for several generations, possibly. The issue is the South Korean publics opinion on the issue. Younger people are less and less likely to even want reunification, lest it take away resources from them. Older people are always going to be the most pro reunification.
"Wonder Warthog reaches into his utility belt and pulls out a quantity of the powerful secret weapon: money!" Excellent idea, Assad. Forget armies and nukes and other destructive means. We could employ the true power of the U.S., our economic muscle. Bribe the buggers. Why not? England would sometimes buy her peace in the past.😁😜🤣
My opinion is When they have there big meetings basically the whole leadership from Kim to all his military leaders and commanders. Massive bombing campaign. South Korea the USA just launch Massive missile attacks. Land and sea. You don't need air unless you release the hardware before entering N.Korean airspace. Before this you use weapons to nutrilize there electrical grid. All firepower directed at the N Korean leadership and military commands. Try not to kill the citizens they have been through enough death and hardship. I really feel bad for the poor North Koreans. This dynasty has to go.
You really think the FBI and CIA haven't thought of this or tried this in the 70 years that the DPRK has existed?
If he would in fact be that cornered there is nothing that would stop him from taking revenge on the west by sending nukes to South Korea.

Heck, even Central Asia has a similar issue. The only issue that will happen in North Korea is China and possibly Russia getting involved to have their own protection similar to how the USSR did in eastern Europe. While South Korea may only get half of Southern North Korea.

Unless Korean Unification also involves the withdrawal of US weaponry, personnel and a non-alignment status of Korea, neither China, nor Russia will let this happen. An aspect of Korean unification, must include Korean independence from the US. Really, our continued involvement on the peninsula will make this impossible. That we haven't even attempted a genuine end to the Korean War (no formal declaration of peace has ever been made, its effectively been a decades long cease fire) will continue to fuel an atmosphere of distrust, and the south as a fifth column government aimed at handing the fate of the Korean people over to Washington. And to be fair, our track record in the middle east, and latin america gives credibility to such suspicions.
The US needs to leave South Korea and let them and Japan worry about NK. They have large economies. It's time for them to grow up and take responsibility for themselves.
The very first step is the truth. The citizens need to learn how the world really works.
Mainly remove all trade restrictions and trade a lot with them, that's how USSR fell.
Instead of war, use peace. Uplift and they will be free themselves.
You'd need a Gorbachev-like leader in NK first.
The USSR is different from NK and it fell due to a multitude of complicated factors. Simply emulating how the USSR fell on NK doesn't guarantee that it will fall in the slightest.
How I see this whole thing is that Western governments just won't bother for the same reason they haven't already bothered for decades - not FINANCIALLY worth the cost. There's nothing in North Korea that's worth exploiting. No profit (no oil) = no war.

Are you at all familiar with the novel approach adopted by major nuclear powers towards the threat of destructive technologies, which is by definition quite ambiguous and may even include the utilization of cryptocurrencies by adversaries? On that premise, if democracies such as Britain or France are willing to risk a nuclear conflict over economic and/or information warfare, do you think the DPRK would refrain from doing the same, especially in a scenario in which the regime's elites find themselves cornered with no chance of survival?
Only through integrating them into the international system may create an atmosphere of gradual change, which is also highly unethical and dangerous in the long run, since it would be an encouragement for other rogue states and dictatorships.
