If that’s all you got to offer, then answer the central question of relevance repeated here just for you:

WHAT DOES NORTH KOREA HAVE TO GAIN BY LAUNCHING AN ICBM WITH AN H2 BOMB?

[Seruzawa]

What do they gain in their own minds? There is no telling with psychopaths. Especially psychopaths on meth. Un might be hearing the voices of Angels or Lenin for all we know.

"WHAT DOES NORTH KOREA HAVE TO GAIN BY LAUNCHING AN ICBM WITH AN H2 BOMB? "

It has everything to gain by demonstrating an ability to reliably launch controllable ICBMs and to reliably explode nuclear weapons. The ability to do both will prevent the outside world from overthrowing their regime.

But they have nothing to gain from actually attacking any major world power as that would be regime suicide. They may simply be talking crazy in order to provoke reactions from the outside world which they can then use to scare their internal population (nothing like an outside enemy to justify your oppression of your own population.) Or Lil Kim might actually be crazy - though after 60 years of seeing the Kim family use the "crazy" act for their own benefit I'm inclined to believe it's all an act.

Excuse me, but why should I be responsible for answering the question? I didn’t write the article. The author did. If someone purports to be an expert on the subject, they should prove it. It’s not MY responsibility to do the author’s job for him.

Jeeze........
