North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has fired his top general amid a shakeup of the country’s military leadership and wants his army to “gird for a war,” state media reported Thursday.

    It’s always best to fire your top general just before going to war. He must have learned that from Stalin and Putin.

      Well, Russian generals got too cocky recently, so Putin sent them into a meat grinder. Now there are no generals and Putin and his oligarchs have earned even more money. Win win!

        the general made the mistake of pointing out that going to war would be stupid. of course he had to go. Nobody calls Kim stupid.
