How about the fact that the test site was already destroyed before they put on theatrics. Or how about the fact that hey, north korea has done this nonsense before and threatened to cancel the meeting themselves like many predicted they would after setting up the meeting

Still speculation. For instance, it could be just one part that collapsed and the rest is perfectly fine for some additional tests. But now that the entrances and mines are destroyed, it's gone for good.

But I give you that this potentially has made the decision easier for NK to destroy them for good after those collapses.

Or how about the fact that the military drills are planned months in advance, North Korea said they wouldn't protest this year, and the US didn't deploy their usual but instead scaled down.

Planned in advance also means they can be called off in advance. The fact that Trump only slightly downscaled instead of cancelling it amids the talks about the summit can be seen as a provocation, especially after killing the deal with Iran. But I agree in sofar that NK is overreacting about it.

But sure, let's go with your "facts" or... You could check your sources bias... Which is probably occupy democrats Facebook 

Now that I would consider flaming,  please keep that out of the discussion

Sure, it's speculation... Which is why NK needed to build another tunnel right before they announced they would collapse it. The last test was on a spectacular scale.

Let's also not pretend the NK has used these types of theatrics before.

 

They were canceled/postponed in advanced. Then they resumed. Which then had the OK from NK.

 

Seriously, you think that pointing out terrible sources is flaming? That's the only way people in this thread could possibly come to their conclusions. This shit has been covered for over two decades now that we have a clear understanding of how NK operates
