What is North Korea's end game?

What they always get when they bitch. MONEY.

Nuclear powers get a seat at the table.

If we let them obtain working missles/small enough nukes, we will have failed. Very badly.

I don't know shite, but I don't believe they have nuclear missiles. They're just saying this to keep the US and it's allies from attacking them

Japan has hard evidence.

They believe that we will back down and they will receive sanction relief. From their point of view, it's happened every time previous, about a half dozen times in the last 20 years. They see nothing different now, with the exception that they have a stronger hand.

This might be a way to shore up support for lil' Kim? Nothing like the threat of war to rally around the president.

they think he is a deity. What support do they have to shore up?

I hadn't heard that. What kind of evidence do they have?

Why does Kim want to launch a nuke aimed at the US anyway?

The sanctions just made him more angry, so that gives him a "motive"

But prior to that, what's his problem?

And honestly, I do often think about how it has to be annoying - for lack of a better word- that the US et al boss all the nations around. You know the "you can't have nukes but we can." I'm not saying these nutjob countries should have them, but I'm just pondering their perspective. It's kind of like gun control on a much bigger level.

Has Kim had phone conversations with Pres Trump? Just curious

if he does this he's dead and his whole country will be glass in under an hour, and his missile will most likely be shot down harmlessly. NK trying might be the most convenient way to end all of this actually. Would be more effective at stopping Iran from doing the same thing than giving them 100 billion dollars was

its time to call their bluff and make sure they understand what they say and do has consequences. Time to stack the DMZ. Put all of our naval forces on high alert. Create a blockade around all of their major ports with everything pointed at Pyongyang and all known missile launch points.

They want self determinism and to be free of the shackles of the globalist central bank yet still not be over sanctioned like they currently are
