All joking aside this was pretty serious. Unless we can get the six party talks to gain some momentum the USA alone has very little leverage against N Korea, aside from signing a non-aggression treaty.
While I think there's little chance N Korea, or Iran for that matter would make an offensive move against US interests, the chance that they could together (along with other geopolitical events) whip the Admin into a panicked response is very real.
