There is nothing for the NK regime to gain by an actual missile attack. The action would be suicidal. But nukes are a vaccination against regime change for these States. It is the only logical move. And there are no easy counter moves for the world on this issue at this point. The very existence of these weapons are a moral disaster.This is just one of the reasons. I think folks go quiet on North Korea because they sense the utter failure of such a regime's existence. I suspect some limited cooperation would be deadlier to the regime which feeds on confrontation than the present style of cornering but I really don't know. Sucks.
