#3 Silly buggers don't realize that no one is concerned about further testing. Matter of fact we would like to see them test all of their weapons and keep spending that money like water. As for war, well, technically we are still at war with them. The more than 50 years of peace talks since the ceasefire have failed to produce a peace treaty. The only country they can really threaten is South Korea and the rest of the world would not shed tears if the two Koreas fought it out.

#4 Apparently, the pouffy-haired bitch has boughtr into his puppet-general's hosannas? I think "victory" might be more highly explosive (or cunningly back-stabbing) than you think, Kim

#5 They've said sanctions = war for years. But what "sanctions" means is tricky, I guess.

#6 Thereby proving once again that power flows from the barrel of a gun.

#8 Power might flow from the barrel of a gun, but intelligence sure doesn't.

#9 Sanctions mean war, eh? Not to nitpick but aren't we still formally at war with North Korea? Or at least South Korea is, IIUC.

#11 There is something wrong with N.Korea if they think they could even win a war against Japan let alone the rest of the world?

#12 North Korea is basically holding a gun to South Korea's head as they taunt us. What they don't realize is how, for America, South Korea has all the status of a mother-in-law after the divorce papers are signed.

#13 Q: What is the definition of a dilemma?
