But maybe that's part of his plan? Why would you want the whole world to know that you're planning on nuking your arch enemy? And besides, 500 miles off the east coast of North Korea is good enough distance.
Hate to break it to you, but over confidence is a weakness. So god damn it. Kim has that advantage.
Oh, and: Kim is friggin insane enough to, hmm, I don't know? SEND SHIPS TOWARDS HAWAII?
So how do you know this? Have you been to NK? I mean, I myself cannot say for certain whatever they are as I myself have never been there. I don't know exactly how life is controlled there. They've been labeled as communist for a long, long time and I'm just gonna go with the books until proven...
People, people.... COMMUNISM = forced rule and brainwashing. You think they're happy but they really aren't. Their way of life is pretty much forced. Now tell me your happy being forced into a shitty life by a crazy and shitty leader with no way out?
Kim wants a fight, possibly. But I don't think he'll do a full-on engagement. I'm pretty sure that China or Russia will try to calm the whole situation, considering that they might get caught in the blaze meant for North Korea. And China, for their own sake, would not want to have North Korea...
