Mostly because these threats have been going on since the Koren War.

NK knows that would cause the utter destruction of its country in a blinding flash.

They need food and they are ringing the pavlovian dinner bell for pathetic liberals to see if they will sit up and appease them with a ransom of food.

I haven't followed this at all, so this threat seems striking. So are you saying we (and S Korea) know the threat is empty and thus it is ignored?

Plus, it's pretty cool to see the missiles, aimed at South Korea, going out to the Pacific, missing SK by a few hundred miles.

I guess that answers my question. That's crazy.

You should ask George W. Bush Jr. and Bill Clinton the same question. By all accounts George W. Bush Jr. sent far more food and aid to North Korea than President Obama has. This isn't a leftie vs. rightie issue.
