He's betting that somebody (read: the US) won't turn North Korea into a big glass parking lot if he decides to lob a nuke at Hawaii.

However, I don't think he quite grasps the fact that he is, in fact, the international equivalent of a five year old with a .357 Magnum - as soon as he pulls the trigger, he will realize very quickly exactly how deep the shit he is in is, and what a real spanking feels like.

Half-assed UN trade sanctions are a Time-Out.

Being told that you don't get to send your boats or planes anywhere or they get stopped, period, and that nobody is going to send any to you, also period, and that even China thinks you're an untouchable douchenozzle and won't stand up for your bullshit. Hello, international pariah.

Hrmmmmm.

I have sort of mixed feeling about Hawaii getting nuked.

The only reason we have permitted this farce to continue is that N. Korea shares borders with Russia and China, and neither of them want US aggresson on their borders. If these fuckers were in South America, it would have ended decades ago.

N. Korea is China's crazy attack dog (kinda like Israel is ours) and nobody wants to fuck with China. And rightfulyl so. N. Korea can do damn near anything in the world it wants as long as Chona has its back. Even if their new missile lands on Hawaii with a nuke on it, we will be asking permission from China to go kick the shit out of N. Korea. Seriously - how crazy would Israel have to get before we said "Iran, go ahead and have your way with them - we won't say a word." Similar situation over there.

Now, just how much more of this shit China wants to swallow is the big question. I'm sure they would like to see the new ruler be less insane, of course, but I doubt they really want a vast change of the status quo down there. They like N. Korea as a buffer against the democracy (and serious US ally) that is S. Korea.
