Fault Lines Episode 372: Littering on Both Sides of the DMZ
Today, Jess, Jeffrey, Martha, and Morgan discuss increasing tensions on the Korean peninsula as North Korea has accused South Korea of flying drones and dropping anti-North Korean propaganda leaflets over Pyongyang. North Korea threatened to respond with force and says its front-line army units are ready to launch strikes on South Korea if the drone flights continue.
Are these claims saber-rattling or a true escalation? Why are South Korean leaflets getting Kim Jong Un so mad? Is the timing of Kim’s fiery rhetoric and the upcoming U.S. presidential election a coincidence?
Check out the answers to these questions and more in this episode of Fault Lines.
