When the (in)famous hacking group Anonymous foreshadowed an imminent WWIII, people were, at the very least, worried.

After all, why would they fabricate such news when they could get attention in other ways? They’re supposed to have access to secret information, anyway. Information that the government might be trying to hide, especially in an age of a 21st century Watergate. However, the scandals of the Trump administration are subpar to the realities of impending doom. “All the signs of a looming war on the Korean peninsula are surfacing,” Anonymous warns. The furtive collective talked about the dangers of the war, and how WWIII could be unlike any other, thanks to the weapons of mass destruction (e.g., nuclear weapons). 

At first, men and women might’ve thought Anonymous was just blowing smoke. However, a new report suggests otherwise. “Two U.S. defense officials confirm that North Korea’s launch of a KN-17 missile last Sunday was successful and that the missile’s re-entry vehicle did successfully re-enter the atmosphere. The re-entry was controlled and the vehicle didn’t burn up. It landed in the sea near Russia,” according to an article.

When North Koreans launched their first missile, it exploded within seconds. People laughed at them for even trying (North Korea’s about as technologically advanced as the Jade Mountain in St. Lucia.). But the communist country has pushed past their failure, and defied the odds.

The win will only end in disaster, though.

“The U.S. officials characterized Sunday’s launch as an advancement for the North Korean missile program,” the article states. If the country continues to advance, then WWIII will continue to look like an actuality. Hopefully, the United States can come up with a solution. Americans (and the rest of the population) don’t have much time. With North Korea making impressive moves, doomsday creeps in closer and closer.
