It's probably a bigger incident in places where vested interests *want* it to appear to be a bigger issue

Nothing will happen - the North Koreans aren't stupid. Any student of asian modern history would know that the Korean war was, for the north, was only viable due to Chinese troops making up the numbers and massive supply support from both Russia and China. Today's political climate is nothing like that. This is purely grandstanding from NK for economic leverage - as they know the US is tied up in the middle east.

Of course, if the US was silly enough to keep poking sticks in a hornet nest - who knows what could happen. But NK, on their own, are **** out of luck, with no allies who would back them in a major conflict. Basically - business as usual.
