DW Repost: Prudent isn't my word for this idiocy involving a nuclear state:
Even when the nuclear state directly suspended the armistice it claimed to adhere to years ago.

After all, North Korea literally suspended the armistice four years ago and hasn't done much of anything with a legal official state of war beyond the usual shenanigans. If it had the will or the power to unleash its armies in an all out assault it would have already done so, logic be damned (as with the kind of situation it has relative to South Korea and US troops in South Korea there is no logic in the first place so.....eh).
No, what I'd call this:

is the kind of petty foolish small-minded approach I'd expect from Dorito Benito and his gang of crooks, liars, perverts, and fanatics. The smart approach with a regime like North Korea is not to play the game it wants but to rationally ignore them and not give them the kind of reaction they want. Which is to say exactly what the dipshit in the White House is actually doing.
Personally I hope nothing comes of this but with this Administration there is no certainty that it'll be the usual pantomime and same old con artist game on the part of the USA and North Korea alike. And that lack of certainty with not one but two scenarios involving other nuclear states is ah......not the best route by any means.
