Now North Korea threatens to nuke the White House as it brands American troops ‘murderous ogres’
NORTH Korea has threatened to nuke the White House and reduce it to ashes as Kim Jong-un’s regime bragged the days of the US are now “over”.
In a punchy editorial published by the state media agency KNCA, Pyongyang slammed President Donald Trump’s decision to dispatch its naval fleet to the Korean Peninsula.
And it went on to vow it will be victorious over an enemy made up of “murderous ogres”, “robbers”, “air pirates” and “warriors who master the occult arts”, .
North Korea’s military commander said the White House would be “reduced to ashes”, as the editorial claimed the US was planning to destroy Pyongyang.
The editorial read: “This is a stern warning to the US imperialists and their stooges running amuck for aggression and war moves.
“The world will clearly witness how the crime-woven history of the US imperialists will be over, how the despicable remaining days of the south Korean puppet forces will come to an end and how national reunification, the cherished desire of the Korean nation, will be achieved.”

The article also claimed 330,000 US soldiers took part in military drills designed to rehearse an “all-out war” with North Korea.
The piece pledged that Pyongyang “will retaliate” and “the crime-woven history of the US imperialists will be over”.
North Korea also accused the US of being a “hotbed of evil” which needed to be hit with an “indiscriminate preemptive nuclear strike” to transform the superpower into “something that cannot come back to life again”.
Earlier this week, a top security expert warned North Korea could carry out a horror attack on the US by hiding a huge nuclear bomb inside a shipping container.
Chris Douglas, who specialises in terrorism, believes the rogue state is more than capable of smuggling a deadly device into ANY port on the planet.
The fears come as State media said Kim Jong-un has inspected his military's new battle plans and bragged his forces are fully ready for combat and to go into action.'
“A fanatical regime facing extinction wouldn’t think twice about sending a container bearing a nuclear device to the US or an allied country and detonating it,” Mr Douglas said in the Australian Strategic Policy Institute.
