quote:Devious. I hadn't considered that, and I like the way your mind works.[] Might Kim Jong-un want people to think he had nukes without having to develop them himself? Yup. Might certain countries with nukes enjoy having the USA chasing its tail over this "threat"? I can think of at least two. Or, would certain agencies in our own country profit from keeping us afraid, very afraid... yeah.

Nukes going off under North Korea doesn't necessarily mean they were North Korean nukes.
That said, I still believe they have nukes. Sadly, they are not all that difficult to make... definitely easier than making reliable ICBMs.
