North Korea blasts US arsenal in fresh propaganda video

They called the US "perverted animals."

A new video that called US forces "perverted animals," and portrayed them under attack was uploaded on a YouTube account run by North Korean propagandists.

In the video published on Saturday, still photos of an aircraft carrier, reportedly the USS Carl Vinson, and a B-1B bomber can be seen in simulated flames, a patriotic speech was recorded over the footage, under North Korea's characteristically stern tone.

The narrator in the video declared that "a knife will be stabbed into the throat of the carrier," and that "the bomber will fall from the sky after getting hit by a hail of fire," Japan Times reported.

The still photos used in the video resemble photo packages produced by professional news organizations, such as Reuters. Further, there also seems to be an image that bears some semblance to real-time strategy video games.

The same propaganda network was scrutinized in 2013 for a video that placed virtual crosshairs over the US Capitol building and portrayed simulated attacks on New York and Washington.

Though the video's rhetoric may sound inciteful, North Korea has a storied history of using inflammatory verbiage in their broadcasts, often targeting their southern counterpart and the US.
