Chubby Kim Jong-un orders North Korean soldiers ‘to ready themselves for imminent war forcing them to steal corn’ to reach battle strength

NORTH Korean soldiers are being urged to steal food in preparation for an all-out war with the might of the US – by porky Kim Jong-un.

Military officers are turning a “blind eye” to the looting, and are even said to be encouraging it as a means of keeping up their strength – because of meagre army rations.

“The military officers are instructing their soldiers, exhausted after training, to eat corn in the fields because war is imminent,” a source told news outlet .

“They are even threatening their soldiers, saying ‘If you become malnourished despite permission to eat the corn, you will face difficulties.’”

Another source from Ryanggang Province, claimed: “Soldiers carrying big sacks of unripened corn can be frequently seen at the markets. They see the corn at cheap prices to merchants who have made deals in advance.”

The order is said to have come direct from the “Glorious Leader” – who is said to thrive on a diet of fine wines and continental cheeses.

In response, fed-up farmers have set up guard posts in an attempt to protect their crops.

Tensions between Pyongyang and Washington have been escalating in recent months. But they ratcheted up further earlier this week when North Korea fired a ballistic missile over Japan.

North Korea blasted the US today for sending nuke-ready bombers and stealth jets to the troubled peninsula on a bombing mission aimed at putting the frighteners up Kim Jong-un.

The rogue state described the high-profile military manoeuvres – which saw target bombing close to its border – as the “rash act” of a desperate nation.

“The wild military acts of the enemies are nothing but the rash act of those taken aback,” said the Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) said.

The rogue state hit out after US staged its own terrifying show of strength today by dropping huge bombs near the North Korean border  – days after Kim’s latest missile outrage.

Four US F-35B fighter jets joined two nuclear-ready US B-1B bombers and four South Korean F-15 fighter jets in the joint military operation over the troubled Korean Peninsula.

The exercise was designed to “strongly counter North Korea’s repeated ballistic missile tests and development of nuclear weapons,” a .

In a statement, the US air force said its bombers flew out of Andersen Air Force Base in Guam and four stealth fighter jets from a US Marine Corps base in Japan.

They conducted a shocking bombing attack, which simulated a surgical strike of key enemy facilities, over the Pilseung Range in the eastern province of Gangwon – which neighbours North Korea.

The sabre rattling drill followed North Korea’s latest weapons test – which was the first ballistic missile fired OVER Japan.

North Korea has been test-firing missiles at a rapid clip this year. With each launch, experts fear Kim’s military can further refine and perfect its missile technology.

The bomber flights have becomes a common response to North Korean actions but the dropping off bombs is seen as an escalation by the US.

B-1Bs flew over the Korean Peninsula following both of Pyongyang’s recent tests of intercontinental ballistic missiles, the type of weapons designed to deliver nuclear warheads to far-off locations like the mainland United States.

The bombers flew from Guam, the closest US territory to North Korea and the target of North Korean threats in recent weeks.

The mock attack came after President Donald Trump said it was becoming clear words would not resolve the Korean conflict.

It comes as Sun Online reveals how Brits would be warned if one of Kim’s missiles was heading towards the United Kingdom.
