Kim is begging to be attacked. Why?

He wants money. Not war. He blew all his money on war.

"“Never do what your enemy desires, for this reason alone - that he desires it” - Napoleon"

I have heard this before and is brilliant and forgotten by the idiots who use our military as chess pieces and are checked by our enemy.

Kim is begging to be attacked. Why?

Dude says he has nukes and will use them if attacked, how does that become "begging to be attacked" in your mind?

What the West did to Libya made it clear to any dictator that lacking WMD deterrence means living at the West's whim.

Kim is begging to be attacked. Why?

Because China said that if the US shoots first, they would get involved in the fight (helping NK). If NK shoots first, China will remain neutral.

Both the US and NK want the other side to fire the first shot.

Anyway, Trump's squeezing the regime effectively and I think the Kim problem will be resolved internally before he can start any war.
