SIX COUNTRIES WHICH MAY SUPPORT NORTH KOREA IF WAR WITH U.S STARTS.

Now that North Korea has flexed its muscle and show it can launch an intercontinental ballistic missile further than most realized, the conversation about a war is more real today than ever. This has certainly created a paradigm shift in Kim Jong-un’s capabilities, and the President of the United States has certainly taken notice. Despite warnings from the USA that swift retaliation is forthcoming if the testing does not stop, North Korea is warning that they are ready to start a full-scale war with President Trump.

With a North Korean warhead capable of hitting US soil, the question now is which countries would support North Korea in case it attacks USA? The following six countries would certainly want to stay on the good side of Kim Jong-un’s wage of war on President Trump and the rats living in the United States.

1. China – One of North Korea’s closest allies happens to be China, although they did condemn the most recent missile tests of Kim Jong-un. China wants to work with Russia to try and reach a diplomatic solution with North Korea, and strong links in the past suggest this is a possibility, but if North Korea does launch an attack on the USA, China would most likely side with Kim Jong-un. Although this relationship may have cooled in recent years, their traditionally close ties could result in North Korea having perhaps the strongest of allies if it wages war on the US.

2. Russia – Despite Kim Jong-un’s proclamation that he has the ability to target anywhere in the world with his countries nuclear-capable missiles, perhaps one of his biggest allies will be Russia. Even though Russia and President Trump have a very solid relationship, both Russia and the United States find their countries are more distant than the end of the Cold War. Despite the back-and-forth between Kim Jong-un’ and President Trump, Moscow has remained basically silent about the current situation. North Korea and Russia share a small border, and have enjoyed a year of friendship that only deepened their political and economic ties. Moscow has already agreed to write off $10 billion of Kim Jong-un’s and North Korea’s Soviet-era debt.

3. Benin – The relationship between North Korea and Benin is stronger than many realize. Benin used to be a communist state that had deep ties with North Korea, and today the two countries feel they have a very solid relationship. North Korea media still promotes the declaration of then Benin President, Thomas Boni, stating how the relationship between Benin and North Korea is one of tradition and friendship.

4. Bulgaria – The relationship between North Korea and Bulgaria dates back to 1948, and when under communist rule, a bilateral cooperation agreement alliance was signed. Even though Bulgaria is Kim Jong-un’s only alliance in all of Europe, it is a very solid one. Despite Bulgaria pulling back on the number of staff in the North Korean embassy, they share a relationship that is decades in the making and would certainly want to remain that way if a war with the United States was to unfold.

5. Madagascar – While the alliance between North Korea and Madagascar might seem unlikely on the surface, it goes back several decades and has to do with how well North Korea treated the country. Dating back to the early 1970s, North Korea began helping Madagascar to build their fledgling presidential Lavoloha Palace. North Korea also helped with building Madagascar’s waterways, all of these were free of charge, something that only helped to strengthen the bond of these two.

6. The Democratic Republic of Congo – Despite the Democratic Republic of Congo being notoriously unstable, North Korea has only strengthened ties with them in recent years. Recently it was discovered through a confidential report that was supplied to the UN Security Council that North Korea was supplying several Congolese troops and their police force with various weapons and combat training, in a sense breaking a UN arms embargo. The Democratic Republic of Congo would certainly want to side with Kim Jong-un’s army if a war with the United States was to unfold.

When it comes to which countries would support North Korea in case it attacks USA, these six are at the top of the list and have more to gain by siding with the North Korean dictator.

NAMIBIA VOWS TO GRAB FARMS FROM WHITE FARMERS.

Okahandja, NAMIBIA: Vibrant rows of neatly lined plants grow on a patch once trampled by the cattle of a large commercial farm run by a family of German descent in Namibia. From that 2,400 square-meter rectangle of sand in the northern Otjozondjupa region, Kornelius Hamasab, 69, now produces spinach, onions and tomatoes. Hamasab is among the 16 percent of black Namibians owning arable land in the semi-desert southwest African nation. White Namibians, who are descended from former colonizers Germany and South Africa and make up six percent of the population, own 70 percent of the land. "It doesn't seem right to me," said Hamasab, who acquired his land as compensation five years after the farm downsized into a guesthouse in 2000 and laid off its staff. "The government should do something about it," he added, while his family picked and rinsed collared greens to be sold in the capital Windhoek, 150 kilometers away. Namibia adopted ...

Anna and Lucy DeCinque with their boyfriend Ben Byrne. Image: Instagram. Perth, AUSTRALIA: Two sisters self-described as “the world’s most identical twins” aim to get pregnant by their shared boyfriend and, if the law would allow it, marry him. Besides looking alike, the sisters also share everything together, including their bed and even their boyfriend of eight years electrical mechanic Ben Byrne. 'We would like to have babies with Ben,' they said in a video. But before going into details, the siblings questioned whether it was possible for them to fall pregnant at the same time.

The DeCinque twins, 33, appeared on the show Dec. 3 to discuss their decision to eschew plastic surgery despite embracing such procedures in the past, but they soon doubled down on claims that they were plannin...

MALARIA VACCINE PROVES HIGHLY EFFECTIVE IN BURKINA FASO.

A vaccine against malaria has been shown to be highly effective in trials in Africa, holding out the real possibility of slashing the death toll of a disease that kills 400,000 mostly small children every year. The vaccine, developed by scientists at the Jenner Institute of Oxford University, showed up to 77% efficacy in a trial of 450 children in Burkina Faso over 12 months. The hunt for a malaria vaccine has been going on the best part of a century. One, the Mosquirix vaccine developed by GlaxoSmithKline, has been through lengthy clinical trials but is only partially effective, preventing 39% of malaria cases and 29% of severe malaria cases among small children in Africa over four years. It is being piloted by the World Health Organization in parts of Kenya, Ghana and Malawi. The Oxford vaccine is the first to meet the WHO goal of 75% efficacy against the mosquito-borne parasite disease. Larger trials are now beginning, involving 4,800 children in four countries.

"PAINTING COW TO LOOK LIKE ZEBRA REDUCES FLIES BY 50%", JAPANESE RESEARCHERS.

Painting a cow to look something like a zebra has been found to reduce fly bites by 50%. Researchers believe painting stripes on to cattle is a world-first and could become an environmentally friendly alternative to pesticides. The study, published by Japanese scientists in the journal Plos One , found fly attacks were “significantly reduced” by the disguise. The scientists believe the striped pattern confuses the fly’s motion detection and deters the pests. In what was a five-minute process for each animal, researchers painted white, 4cm to 5cm stripes on six pregnant Japanese black cows. The stripes were drawn freehand, using “commercial waterborne white lacquers” that faded easily. The laquered bovines were then observed. Two of the cows were painted with white stripes, two with black stripes and two were left unpainted for a control. The process then repeated so, over nine days, each cow spent three days striped, painted black or unpainted. Only 55 flies ...

WHY CHINA'S DOG-MEAT MARKET HAS EXPANDED.

Every year during the summer solstice, a dog-eating festival takes place in Yulin, a city in the southern Chinese province of Guangxi. This year’s event ended with the usual controversy. Photographs of dogs being fried or treated cruelly went viral. The Jinhua Hutou Dog Meat Festival, as it is called, was abruptly canceled last week. Animal-rights activists and American congressmen demanded that China ban the eating of dogs and cats, as Taiwan did in April. Yulin’s local government took modest steps to restrain or hide some of the more contentious activities, such as selling dogs in food markets. Still, the festival was packed. Why has the controversial culinary habit become so popular in China? Contrary to cliché, dog meat has not always been a common item in the Chinese diet. Unlike in the West, eating dogs has never been taboo, but it appears to have been rare in the past. Government accounts single out butchers who sold dog meat, suggesting it ...
