DPRI?

Sorry people who visit this blog, I was on vacation. Well more like a camp. I was doing a lot of soccer, or for our foreign readers, football. Anyway, let's see what's going on right now. It seems that there were Iranians at the missile test. This is some old news, but I think it's about time I analyze the relationship between Iran and North Korea and how it can play out militarily. They have a common goal. Defeat the US. What's funny is how opposite the two countries are. Iran is a very conservative theocratic nation who is run by Islamic religous leaders. North Korea is a Stalinist dictatorship that bans every other religion besides the cult one that worships the "Dear Leader" as a God (Obviously he's not). Here's a piece of news that I found at IRNA:

Iran-North Korea-Cooperation North Korean Ambassador to Tehran Kim Chong Ryong conferred here Sunday with the Head of Majlis National Security and Foreign Policy Commission Alaeddin Boroujerdi on expansion of mutual and international relations.
According to the Public Relations Department of Majlis, at the meeting, Boroujerdi expressed satisfaction with the expansion of ties between the two countries and expressed hope to witness further expansion of political and economic cooperation between the two countries.
Highlighting Iran's peaceful nuclear activities, he said it is about two and half years that the country has adopted a very close, transparent cooperation with the three European countries and the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).
IAEA director general has officially declared that Iran has not deviated from peaceful nuclear activities, he pointed out.
Iran believes in continued dialogue to resolve nuclear issues and welcomes it, he said adding that but the country will not give up its legitimate right for peaceful purposes.
The North Korean ambassador, for his part, expressed satisfaction with the expansion of ties between the two countries and voiced his country's readiness for further expansion and consolidation of ties at various fields mainly on parliamentarian affairs through activating Iran-North Korean Parliamentary Friendship Groups.
Referring to Iran's peaceful nuclear activities, he said that peaceful application of nuclear energy is among the legitimate rights of all countries.
North Korea fully supports Iran's peaceful nuclear activities, he said.
At the end of the meeting, the North Korean ambassador extended an invitation to Iran-North Korea parliamentary friendship group to pay an official visit to the country.


This f**king blog screws up the whole copy and paste thing. You can view the normal article here: http://http://www.irna.ir/en/news/view/line-17/0603058067201235.htm

Obviously they have some sort of military relationship going. Iran has a surprisingly advanced military industry. They're on their way to producing indigenous fighter jets and tanks. Something that North Korea is in need for. Meanwhile, Iran wants... well Iran already has what they want. They like North Korea because they know the US is a bit afraid of them. Is there a possibility of opening second fronts if one of the countries goes to war? I think so. Iran is already waging war against Israel with Hizballah and HAMAS. So why not open another one? One which is very far away. Korea! And if North Korea is attacked. Well Iran will screw with the shipping lanes and make things very hard for the US in Iraq. Not really opening as much of a second front, but good enough.

I have news not really related to this kind of stuff. I live in New York as it says on the blog thing. Brooklyn to be exact. And I'm a Yankee fan. So I'm proud to announce that the Yankees are 2 games ahead of the Boston Red Sox (Who suck!!!!!!!!!) in the AL East. We've gone through so many injuries and we still can win the AL East. And kudos to Brian Cashman for making some nice moves before the deadline.
