They may believe it is possible to end sanctions and retain power by invading South Korea. It is a plausible but unlikely outcome. The US has allowed obviously [human-rights abusing, undemocratic, unstable] states to exist before, and even cooperated with them (Cold War guerilla support, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia,  ...)

More northern propaganda we know there's only one.

You mean, intermitend power outages and low yield nukes with less range than a 90 year old man with a bum leg? Kill two birds with one stone.

i doubt this is the first time this happened

If North Korea invades South Korea the US and all their allies will beat the living crap outta them. Unless Russia and China gets involved, then were f**ked.

NK can't just blitz SK, there's 30k US troops there on top of the SK troops. If you factor in the US troops in the region it's probably close to 100k + an entire fleet, complete with aircraft carriers and land based airfields in Japan.

However, if NK invades on the day Starcraft 2 expansion launches, you can count the SK troops out. It would be a total surprise attack!

Maybe dennis rodman will pay there bill.maybe north korea government shut it down them selfs they are still. useing 56k lol

 More likely scenario the guy peddling the bicycle died and Kim ate the oxen who where there as the back up system .

Regardless, before they get crunched, they can serious damage.  There are alot of very pretty women in South Korea.

Still, I would imagine an invasion force would be noticed days before they were ready.  There many eyes focused on that border.

Could you access these websites beforehand? I think they might be blocked to the outside world or something. Other official North Korean websites without the .kp still work.
