The North Korean leader could roll the dice on military action for reunification amid new military pacts, believing past defenders may not intervene again. Rah Jong-yil recounts indoctrination endured during the Korean War, highlighting concerns over Kim Jong Un's ambitions.
The rapid North Korean advance in 1950 led to Rah's family being behind the front line, subjected to political indoctrination by praising Kim Il Sung. The war ended in a stalemate, but Rah fears North Korea's current power poses a different, more concerning threat.
Rah Jong-yil explains how the world's current division into hostile blocs raises concerns over potential conflict, contrasting with the previous Cold War dynamics. North Korea's increased strength in this context worries him.
US military dominance, which deterred North Korea in the past, is no longer perceived as absolute. The evolution of global power dynamics and recent military pacts make Rah Jong-yil deeply apprehensive about North Korea's intentions and capabilities.
