South Korean President Declares Martial Law, Claims Political Opponents in Parliament Work for North

in #life14 days ago

S. Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol has been in office since 2022, and has faced a hostile majority in Parliament making it difficult for him to move forward his policies. Today he has declared Martial law. Parliament has barricaded itself in, military forces are respecting the chain of command that puts them at the behest of President Koon.

Parliament has voted to lift the state of Martial law and threatens to prosecute those acting on it for treason.

Despite the threats from Parliament the military says Martial law will remain until the President lifts it.

US Ambassador says the situation is fluid, and they are monitoring closely.

That's all I know presently. Let's hope things calm down and do not escalate further. Please keep our friends in E. Asia in our prayers.

That clown is just trying to save his wife from criminal charges.

As I have continued to watch things unfold, it became clear that the imposition of Martial law was merely a political tactic to stave off impeachment and criminal prosecution. The history of S. Korean government shows that there are no Presidents that haven't found their way into court for some kind of criminal charges.

Thanks!

Spot on! It looks like the current First Lady is also deep into the corruption this time also.

The more that comes out about these circumstances, the more it looks like business as usual for S. Korean Presidents.

Thanks!

Well, they seem like desperate measures, here we call that "drowning kicks."

Cheers, Mr Unicorn.

!PIMP

It seems these 'drowning kicks' are usual and common to this political position in South Korean politics. I am unaware of any that have held the office that haven't ended up in jail, or narrowly escaping such a fate.

Thanks!

such behavior that is habitual is simply a sign of psychopathy. Morally it should be sanctioned as long as there is no international law that deals with these aberrations my friend.

I only repeat hearsay, as I've seen lists purporting to be of S. Korean Presidents that seem all to have ended up in jail since the Korean war - or narrowly avoided it. I remember one that was sentenced to death, although I recall they were pardoned.

Dear @valued-customer !

You have just seen the most shameful truth about that country.😂

The overlords of East Asia are punishing those who expose their most shameful secrets to the public now.

Trump is acting as president at least for the benefit of his supporters.

But, The overlords of East Asia will do anything to hide their most shameful secret!

Trump is a servant of the American people. But, Yoon is a clown!🤣

I can but defer to your judgment, as I am only familiar with these parties and policies vaguely and distantly. My meager research into recent decades of S. Korean Presidencies suggests that office holders are often driven to extremity, or gain office because of it, and often end up in jail, and one even sentenced to death (though eventually pardoned)!

None so alarmed me as the shamanic cult devotee surmounting the infamous Daughters of Megalia fanatically zealous about ethnically cleansing men from the Earth, sacrificing shiploads of students, and enabling the mysterious spiritualist to rule through the Presidential minion, of course involving the purloining of a fabulous fortune by that means.

That episode has constantly worried me for my friends in the East ever since, wondering what toll it has taken on their morale and joi de vivre. I am left with a sense that there seethes just below the veneer of modern civilization (and a grinding burden of labor for indifferent overlords to attain to mere scraps barely sufficient to survival) a tendency to revert to mob violence, superstition, and corruption by super villains impossible to prevent from seizing dictatorial power in E. Asian American protectorates, made inestimably worse by feminist supremacy suicidally malevolent to men.

Thanks!

Dear my respected senior, @valued-customer !
I am always amazed by your great insights!

I believe what you say about the overlords!
Overlords are always immoral and dishonest.

I do not know how to escape from the rule of the overlords, because I am currently living as a slave to the overlords. However, I believe that you are living free from the rule of the overlords!

I feel that I can escape the rule of the overlords only if I live in America!😅

The NWO is conquering the world, and will get to me here just as surely as it will get to you there. Whom would survive must build communities that together can produce the necessities of life, food, fuel, clothing, and shelter. More can be produced if a large enough community can be created. A primary need this community will have is to secure it's members from violence to prevent being slaughtered or subjugated to the NWO.

You may believe America is free, but tens of millions of illegal immigrants that include powerful criminal gangs have infiltrated the country, and are taking over neighborhoods, apartment buildings, and oppressing Americans with force of arms. In many American cities the local government officials have stopped enforcing just laws against rape, murder, robbery, and violent crimes of any kind, causing their commercial and retail businesses to flee, and prosecuting any that complain or speak out against these policies for hate crimes and putting them in jail.

The use of mail in ballots has enabled election fraud to be impossible to prevent or prosecute, and this enabled the election in 2020 of senile, non compos mentus Joe Biden as President by this means. At every level corruption, treason, and infiltration by WEF trained traitors government has been compromised and turned into a weapon against the sovereign American population. In a place where you know no one, do not have any roots, do not fluently speak the language, and that is being forced to withdraw into close knit communities you could find yourself alone, exposed, and victimized by criminals without recourse to corrupt law enforcement or courts. Where you have lived all your life, where your family and childhood friends were raised, and speak your mother tongue, you have a far better chance of joining a community of people that care about you and will better secure your survival in the coming catastrophes.

The most important thing anyone can have is a community that has your back and that you can be a valued contributing member of during war, famine, or other cataclysm.

There are many people there that are as concerned about the horrible events that are happening, and they are people that you know well, and speak the same language, attended the same schools, watched the same movies and shows, listen to the same music, and have all those cultural bonds that enable trust and affection to create lifelong friendships and supportive communities.

America will not escape the coming catastrophic democide. No place on Earth will, because evil criminals are conquering the world.
