What the DPRK actually wants is U.S. troops out of South Korea, left-wing nationalists in power in South Korea, and a peace treaty leading to a ROK-DPRK confederation. And there's a sizable constituency in South Korea that would probably go for it.

North Korea is not lead by left-wing nationalists, it's a fascist state, it has the ethnic/racial bullshit built into it

The DPRK is on a feed-absurd-whims-of-the-tubby-manchild-Kim-Jong-Un footing, not a war footing

I didn't say that. I said North Korea wants left-wing nationalists in power in South Korea.

Is your assumption that left-wing guys are gonna be 'weak' and cave to north threats, or that they'll buy the bullshit juche rhetoric? Because either is kinda silly.

But a confederation isn't going to go smoothly for the North, because it's the south has both the dominant economy and the better military - the north has simply shown itself more willing to put that military on display, but its army is only good 'on paper'.

So if the confederation goes on NK's terms, it'll be entirely because of pressure from China, not juche or whatever
