I wonder what brought this about :hmmm:

The great leader coming to his senses?

The military bowing to the inevitable and forcing his hand?

The fact China has halted transactions from North Korea's Foreign Trade Bank, the first time a Chinese entity has made a move against North Korean interests following the recent tension?


North Korea has removed two medium-range missiles from a coastal launch site, indicating a lowering of tension on the peninsula, a US official said.
Pyongyang was believed to be preparing for a launch last month, having threatened attacks in the region.
The threats followed tough new UN sanctions imposed on North Korea in March after its third nuclear test.

Maybe they actually wanted to launch them but they didn't take off.:O:

Like i said a few times before. It was just more saber rattling. The DPRK wrote the book on brinksmanship. They'll always push it, and then back off at the last minute. This wasn't the first time, and it won't be the last. So when the next time rolls around, just sit back, and enjoy the show. It's always entertaining watching the media try to whip themselves and everyone else into a frenzy.

I understand he watched the movie, "WarGames" and decided it is a no win situation. He put his toys away for another day.

He was playing "Missle Command" and ran out of quarters.

Well considering all the rhetoric coming out of NK lately the cause can't be lack of gas :)

How about merging the two threads?

Or better yet, post these pictures to where they belong in the first place:
