Just seeking facts and opinions really....

The words "discord", "threat" and "nuclear" have all been used in the same sentence - is this Hyperbole or Despotism?

South Korea, US appear to be the main targets for their ire, but China is now stepping in after a UN security council rule imposing sanctions - how realistic is enforcing these sanctions in North Korea? It seems pretty unrealistic to me, but I don't know enough to comment really...

Should we be worried about a major destabilisisation in relationships that enjoyed an albeit fragile peace?

Got 'em by the tail as long as the Chinese can be kept on side. I've been surprised that North Korea hasn't collapsed and there seems little sign of intelligence networks organising a revolution.
