International Politics Explained!



North Korea is an undemocratic regime that tortures and kills its opponents and poses a military threat to its neighbours.

Saudi Arabia is an undemocratic regime that tortures and kills its opponents and poses a military threat to its neighbours.

Any yet North Korea is an “evil empire” while Saudi Arabia is a friend and ally. Why is this?

The answer is that Saudi Arabia supplies the US and UK with oil, and buys armaments from us, and hence helps our rich get richer. North Korea does not.

International Politics is not about justice, fairness and Human Rights – it’s about preserving and expanding the wealth of our leaders.
