North Korean propaganda videos are certainly entertaining. This time, their video targets the United States with KN-08 missiles that are intended on hitting Washington, Colorado Springs, Los Angeles, and Honolulu. The only problem is, they have no idea that Colorado Springs is in Colorado, nor do they even know where Colorado is.

You can hear the narrator mention Colorado Springs at about 1 minute, 20 seconds into the video, as a scary-looking line is shown shooting out from North Korea and landing somewhere in the vicinity of Shreveport, La., a 900-mile drive southeast from the intended target.

Full Translation by Yeseul Loaiza:

The First Day

On the first day, once the order is given, the North Korean people’s army will fire 240mm MRL (Multiple Rocket Launcher), 250,000 Medium/  long-range ballistic missile, and 1000 SSM (Surface-to-surface missile)  for the first 30 minutes toward South Korea and the U.S. combined bases, like a shower from the heavens.

We will launch a preemptive attack by surprise with hit-and-run raids.

Meanwhile, 50,000 Special Forces infantryman will make a surprise attack to South Korea and the .U.S combined air force base, naval base , missile bases and other power plant.

North Korea’s special forces will enter Seoul and take 150,000 Americans living in South Korea as prisoners of war, which will be a decisive blow.

We will attack Air forces with missiles and bombs. South Korea and America’s combined air forces will be in a panic, without even one plane having taken off.

The Second Day: North Korea army’s powered offensive

10,500 North Korean air force paratroopers will drop from a 80 m high altitude.

Meanwhile, 4600 tanks and 3000 armored cars will head to South Korea.

Our infantry troops will approach South Korea’s city and sweet them out.

Of course, right after the War has began, we will strike the U.S.’s pacific ocean’s bases first and wipe them out.

The Last Day (The Third Day)>

South Koreans including from Seoul and other cities will be in a state of confusion without any food supply, water supply, communications network, and traffic network.

On the last day of war, there will be no battle but North Korea army will occupy South Korea and make a stability operations such as restoring provision systems in South Korea.

Like this, we have a Unification War scenario that will be finished in just 3 days. Even though the U.S. keeps practicing the invasion of North Korea” War scenario with computer simulations, they are trembling with fear and can’t open the scenario to the public.

Weeks after a North Korean video showed an American city razed and ablaze, the hermit kingdom has reportedly released another inflammatory piece of propaganda.

A new video apparently published Sunday shows American soldiers and U.S. President Barack Obama engulfed in flames, with the sequence ending in a simulated nuclear test. According to GlobalPost, the inspirational soundtrack accompanying the footage comes from the Elder Scrolls Oblivion video game series.

Text translation:

North Korea has succeeded in proceeding with this nuclear test despite the United States’ increasingly unfair bully activities against North Korea. That United States that has no respect to others nor appreciation to equality…

It is not incorrect to state that the United States strong hostility policy and endless violence toward North Korea in the past 70 years has helped North Korea become one of the world’s strongest military power states.

Words spoken by the United States, a country that uses the law of jungle as the law of survival for fitness, is meaningless. As a result, North Korea’s high level nuclear test conducted against American imperialist invaders is a nuclear deterrent that protects our sovereignty.

Thus, the United States has practically guided North Korea towards nuclear testing and therefore needs to be considered as an American virtue.

North Korea’s third underground nuclear test! Let it be known once more that this is strictly our practical counter-measure for North’s safety and to protect its sovereignty from the aggressors. It is also a solemn warning that time is no longer on the side of the United States.

The people are watching. America should answer.

From radio and film to newspapers and publishing, the Nazi regime controlled every aspect of German culture from 1933-1945. Through Josef Goebbels’ Ministry of Public Enlightenment and Propaganda, the German state tightly controlled political messaging, promoting deification of the leader—the Führerprinzip—and the demonization of the ubiquitous and duplicitious “racial enemy.” A new exhibit at the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, D.C., examines “how the Nazi Party used modern techniques as well as new technologies and carefully crafted messages to sway millions with its vision for a new Germany.” Reason.tv’s Michael C. Moynihan visited with museum historian and curator Steve Luckert to discuss the role and effectiveness of propaganda in the rise of fascism and what lessons can be drawn from the Nazi experiment in mass manipulation.

It’s important to know the history and power of Nazi propaganda so that you can recognize it when your government does it to you.

Remember, this is a propaganda film. It still makes some interesting points. It’s still propaganda, amusing at times, eerily accurate at others.

This is from Part 3 and I couldn’t help but chuckle at it.

Look at these images from celebrated filmmaker Quentin Tarantino. What happened to this man as a child? What did America do to him that he should make such images for people to watch? Is he a psychopath? No. He is simply reinterpreting the Western Cult of Death he grew up with for new generations of consumer zombies who crave seeing their fellow humans mutilated in new and inventive ways.

The film then goes on to theorize that the Western Cult of Death is rooted in the bible.

Make no mistake, this is how the North Korean government views the West and will continue to use the same tactics it accuses the West of by repeating propaganda over and over until its citizens believe it as well.

You can view up to Part 6 on YouTube, with the final four parts to come in the near future.
