I really find it hard to believe that NK would be so stupid as to actually follow through with an attack on Japan or SK. This is just the same-ol-same-ol where NK acts like a petulant child and we throw a billion dollars at them to make them go away...for a while. Nothing will happen. But then, I thought Obozo would get his butt kicked last November, too.

It would be an utter lose-lose situation for the military brass. If they actually make an effective strike in first, they they’ll get taken out in the C&C strikes that follow. If not, then they’ve lost face which is a capital offense in that country.
Perhaps Jong-un has some of the same nihilism that infects Iran.
News is saying, today, from overseas and tweets... that there’s a split in the N.Korean Military about Kim-Un having authority in the country.....this from the guy who shot his General and escaped recently...now apparently undercover somewhere in China.
But I’ve also read this along the way, this fraction from within the military....so I do think some of this is Kim trying to get control of the Military and apparently having a tough time at doing so.
This would also tie in with the reports Kim has tripled his personal security at all levels....
The countries people are forced to rat out each other, because if they know omeone’s doing something wrong, and it’s learned they knew but didn’t report it, they and or family members are sent to the gulogs or killed. So everybody is constantly looking over each others shoulders.......I love the idea Kim-Un has to do likewise....he’s apparently afraid now of even the people.
