o yeah: people don't like famine. you can't eat the image of the Dear Leader.
nk is in a rather desperate situation and are making a bunch of noise in order to extort more money to not do what they're threatening to do. maybe the potential nukes are enough to allow the Dear Leader to imagine that a war is possible that won't in the end cost him too much. it's hard to say. what's clearer is that nk's created a situation that requires some pretty fast action.
