Now I'm sure there is a little bit of grand standing going on here by NK but why not talk about something that's actually relevant instead of oh say some contrived birther theory.
Here's the thing NK, basically has China as an ally. Despite what many people think with regards to our US military being too advanced for China to even think about helping out, the fact remains at the end of the day boots on the ground wins a war. There are only two countries that can theoretically amass 100 million man armies (China and India). India is an ally, China is not. If it ever came down to NK actually gunning for the US, there's no way China allows that much American influence to hit that close to their borders. Not gonna happen, let alone have US artillery which may include nuclear war heads flying over their heads. The same with Russia. We may end up overlooking NK and not really considering them a threat (average citizen anyway who thinks the US is just indestructible) but think about it, twice the world overlooked Germany and if Hitler hadn't attacked Russia's western front, voiding his deal with Stalin and costing him thousands of men and resources fighting on two fronts, England would have probably fallen. Never underestimate those little guys.
Boots on the ground may win a war but would that be the objective of the U.S? I don't think so it would be to pretty much eliminate the threat ,which I think the U.S is more than capable of doing. Once they eliminate the threat South Korea can take care of the rest. Don't count on China being a strong ally of North Korea, they are getting pretty fed up of NK's antics and may offer to help with the installation of something more reliable.

They are probably sabre-rattling for humanitarian aid again.
they've already launched 2 missiles..... i'd have to disagree with you.
