Rodman sure knows how to pick em.

This should be interesting.

North Korea demanded the U.N. Security Council immediately dismantle the American-led U.N. Command that's based in Seoul and move to end the state of war that exists on the Korean Peninsula, which continues six decades after fighting stopped because an armistice, not a peace treaty, ended the war.

In anticipation of the resolution's [new sanctions] adoption, North Korea earlier in the week threatened to cancel the 1953 cease-fire that ended the Korean War.

All I'm saying is let's give peace a chance.

Also, we'll nuke you.   #-o

Thats a weird thing to put on the success kid background.

Yet another example of North Korea trying to threaten us into giving them more aid.

Playing the "we got nukes n' so there!" whine card.

Korea + Nukes = Starcraft

Well...  In my mind anyway.

Based on the results of their recent missile tests, I don't think anyone is really breaking a sweat on this. Somebody needs to bitch slap that little shit and explain the facts of life to him.

They know this as well. It's posturing.
The general populace may not, but their military analysts and leaders know full well that fighting alone, their military is not a match for a western one, let alone NATO.

It's only a success if you kill the ghost before the nuke goes off.

And who'd risk their own execution?  Does anyone in NK even know the realities of the world outside of propaganda?  Even the propagandists themselves probably aren't terribly knowledgeable of the outside world.

Yep, this. They don't even have their traditional allies backing them on this one. China helped write the sanctions they're bitching about FFS.

A few things.. SK now has their first ever woman PM (or is it pres?) so NK wants to test her resolve. Women get little if any respect in NK if I'm not mistaken.
This is still the boy crying wolf. NK leadership can't rule over a big, uninhabited, radioactive rock for long. Eventually the rock will rebel so they need people there..

I imagine right now the only reason no one has glassed that country is because they don't wanna deal with millions of unskilled, unintelligent refugees.
