Kim Jong Un threatens South Korea with nuclear weapons
North Korea's Kim said any attempt by the South to encroach on its sovereignty would bring forth a nuclear response. Earlier, Seoul had warned any use of nuclear weapons would be "the end of the North Korean regime."

Ironic considering after North Korea invaded the south in 1950, there were various pressures in US military command to employ atomic weapons and 34 were prepared, but ultimately the Americans exercised restraint.
What, does NK have some bizarre projection paranoia that SK will pour over the border like NK did?

I mean they did once the Americans started backing them up, hell if Truman didn't hold macarthur back he probably wouldve marched into china. The Korean war is a lot like the situation in Gaza where yes the north / Hamas did hit "first" ( although in both situations there was a background of low level war and skirmishes initiated by both sides) but the reaction to it was disproportionate and borderline genocidal, carpet bombing of the north killed far more people than the North's invasion of the south. You don't need nukes when you can destroy 85% of a countries buildings with conventional bombs. The North's fear of the south isn't just projection.
Before someone calls me a tankie, yes NK is one of, if not the most oppressive regimes on this planet right now and shouldn't have nukes and Kim should be shot for crimes against humanity. I'm just tired of the framing that SK and the US were the good guys in that war. Syngman Rhee was just as authoritarian as Kim il sung, there were no good guys.
4MacArthur was a bit crazy in that regard...

...again.
5Heading into the winter again, NK making threats so they end up with various humanitarian aide again?
4Don't they call it the pendulum of history or something like that? This one has a shorter string and goes faster.

NK military’s headgear is pretty ridoncolous even by generally ridoncolous military headgear standards.
