If a country doesn’t want to get its hands dirty they put the capability to do something in the hands of another country. North Korea has had help from more capable countries than their own pathetic scientists and engineers. Super powers don’t like going at it headon unless they have a sneak attack or killer advantage. Imagine giving Korea a superior nuclear warhead masquerading as a joke to slip by the American’s defences and cause harm in so many ways none the least confidence in the American’s abilities to protect. Of course North Korea pays the ultimate price with the true manipulator sitting in the background capitalizing on the situation.
