"they can't point to any specific reasons why" I've seen a LOT of reasons pointed out "specifically". 1. They can't feed their people. They don't even care about MOST of their people, but even the ones they care about aren't getting enough food. The sanctions have cut off their cash flow and eliminated even the most rudimentary improvements to their archaic agricultural methods. 2. The Chinese are getting a bit bored with and intolerant of their "special" neighbors. During the "cold war" years the Chinese looked at N. Korea as an important ally, but lately they aren't too thrilled with all this hysteria and they have tightened their borders and lessened their support. They're more into capitalistic dominance now than cold war intrigue. 3. The Military RUN the country and Kim il Un or whatever is just a figurehead. He's only "chosen" because the military SAYS he's chosen. 4. It doesn't take anybody real smart to know the N. Koreans can do just about ANYTHING they want without getting into a war. If there was a war we'd see THOUSANDS of U.S. soldiers killed and maybe a MILLION or more South Koreans killed.
