—Kim Jong-un, ordering North Korean forces to be on standby to strike the U.S. mainland and U.S. bases in the Pacific
I wonder how insane this guy is. He's cut all of the emergency diplomatic phone lines with the south, so there's no direct way for the U.S. or South Korea to talk to him. I think China has direct diplomatic ties.
Could be just posturing for some later advantage, like increased food supplies since he's totally incapable of feeding his country's population. Could be a prelude to war with South Korea. Maybe he is actually thinking about throwing nukes at the U.S. I wonder if he's realized that his people are slowly starving to death, and maybe by starting a war and rolling over, then letting the U.S. and S.K. rebuild him, that he/his people would be better off.
The certainty is that he has demonstrated North Korea has atom bombs of some sort, but it's doubtful that he can accurately target the U.S. Launching a satellite in to orbit is not the same as launching an ICBM.
