Defiant North Korea tells UN its spy satellite program is its ‘legitimate right as a sovereign state’ - Lemmy.world

Never thought I would agree with Nth Korea but they are right.

They have just as much a right to launch satellites as every other nation does.

They also have every right to pursue nuclear technology. Same goes for Iran and etc. Who the fuck are we to tell them what they can or can’t do as a nation of human beings?
And they do. But the US uses its political and economic influence to make it difficult to get anything to be able to explore nuclear tech for countries that aren’t totally stable. We can and should exercise that power when they threaten us, despite them being mostly empty threats.
Now guess who destabilized Iran in the first place… The US of course.
The whole 2 Koreas situation is directly caused by the US as well
Except no.

why? that’s 11.5 hours of podcast. i don’t do enough long haul trucking to listen to podcasts, but that is a lot of homework to assign to a stranger with no justification given.
Listen to just the first episode then.
