A couple weeks ago, I looked at some photographs of North Korea post the US bombing in the 1950s… the devastation was appalling. What’s interesting about these images is how the threat/devastation is reinterpreted in a “medieval” style, with for instance axes (up close and personal) doing the killing instead of bombs (far off and impersonal). I wonder why?
One might just wonder a mindset of an ordinary North Korean citizen. They have been watching these pictures their whole life, and don´t know about anything else. If a conventional war breaks out in North Korea, it will be a brutal, North Koreans won´t surrender so easily as they are scared.
