North Korea does not have the resources to even store that much information much less make it public.

I dunno. It looks to me like an attack from North Korea, about as highly advanced as everything else they do. They stand out in the world because they are not venal and duplicitous in the ordinary sense. They have funneled the resources of an entire nation into projects that seem to have no purpose except to project belligerence and seem willing to forfeit every political, diplomatic and economic opportunity for the sake of these projects. They seem to be getting worse, more truculent and daring, as the years go by. I wonder where it will end. I 'm beginning to think a bang is more likely than a whimper.

And let's face it. They have no Seoul.
