The story seems to be the usual slow week "news" about North Korea, but their alleged reasoning of "the empire is overextended" doesn't sound too unrealistic this time.

It's Reuters from Seoul so it's most likely just empty air.

About as the thing found below that article:

Is that article recent? Goddamn, he just needs to negotiate for peace already before more life and limbs are lost. This is insanity.

His brains would likely cease to be in a single place in one piece if he did that.

War is imminent but because of the south's provocations: https://lemmygrad.ml/comment/3188025

In the period from January to October this year alone, the puppet group of traitors committed more than 3 200 loudspeaker broadcasting provocations in the forefront area, more than 1 100 warships of the puppet army invaded the territorial waters of the DPRK for 1 270-odd times and reconnaissance planes intruded into the territorial air of the DPRK side over 150 times.

The U.S. nuclear carrier strike groups led by Nimitz, Ronald Reagan, etc., which carry the forces huge enough to carry out a full-scale war, made their appearances in the waters off the Korean peninsula three times.

The number of large-scale joint military drills, including Freedom Shield joint military exercises, Ssangyong joint landing drill and “combined joint fire annihilation drill”, staged by the U.S. in and around the Korean peninsula with Japan and the south Korean puppet forces in a bilateral and multilateral way as of now since the outset of this year, runs to over 60.

At present, U.S. nuclear strategic assets are deployed once every ten days and one warring side’s nuclear war drills precisely targeting the other side are staged once every five days in the area of the Korean peninsula. There is no such place on this planet..
