Just thinking...
Well, the tensions involving the North Korean military ranks vs. the political leadership are inevitably involved in this. Some of the speculation says that this could be Little Kim flexing his muscle to show to the hardline military brass that he will not take a soft line with the South. This could well be a show for their benefit - I think it's no secret that the military is quite hard-line and the rare political/dynastic succession needs to be almost inevitably accompanied by a proof-of-toughness by the successor in the eyes of the military.
