#1 (Barack Obama even warned Trump that North Korea would be his biggest challenge in foreign policy.)

Wrong. Iran will be.

(Golly. Because Barack Obama was ever right about anything.)

Can it be called wrong if it's a lie?

#2 Wrong. Iran will be.

Yep.

IMO, most are getting the Norks motivation for nukes wrong. I think their primary purpose is to extort money from Skor, Japan, and anyone else who can be extorted.

Whereas Iran will use them.

#3 "Going to war with someone you regard as a fool is the most foolish thing you can do,"
uhh, beg to differ.
Just as an exercise, make a two column page list of wars of (a) wars started by who won, and (b) wars started by who lost, or at least who didn't get what they wanted.
It will make you think.

#4 Strange as it may sound, ignorant psychotics don’t build nuclear weapons and missiles.

Strange as it may sound, that is not necessarily true.

#5 Werner von Braun was not a fool or a sociopath but his boss was. And while Pudgy has some very intelligent people working for him I would argue that the reason he feels cornered is that he is a sociopath. Now, if the NORKS could just get rid of him...
