Leicester_H Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 "According to North Korea news, they are participating in the World Cup, which will come as news to the rest of us that didn’t see them participate in Brazil. And, surprise, North Korea are doing rather well! A whopping 7-0 win over Japan was followed by a 4-0 rout of America. In their final group game, North Korea beat China 2-0." http://www.101greatgoals.com/blog/north-korea-news-claims-they-won-the-group-stage-of-the-world-cup/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soapdragon Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 And I bet their players don't get the stupid amounts of monopoly money that our do! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cat tails Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 They don't even participate! So no players to pay either... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patsylabrador Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 Oh my! That's one lunatic dictator, as so many are. The sad thing is that North Korean people won't know any different. I love the very political wins. Would that make them in the final? That would almost be worth watching, Germany, Argentina and NK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kissinuk Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 Brain washing at its finest. Apparently they pulled the same stunt in the last World Cup. They didn't even get past the qualifying stages this time!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gavclojak Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 They actually think they won the Korean War, and the North Koreans think they have won serve all wars with American in the intervening years!! They have a library in Pyongyang and they only books available are by Kim Jong ii and his forefathers....they have roads but no cars or fuel for them...and the building seen on photos are empty shells designed to make the capital look prosperous.....maybe that's where they got the idea for"the matrix" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leicester_H Posted July 14, 2014 Author Share Posted July 14, 2014 Says a lot that the whole world seemed quite happy to believe it though . Yes - I believed it ! I thought it was like in the Iraq (?) war when there was that official (chemical/comical Ali) saying there was no invasion when there was clearly an enemy tank in the background.
