At first, the antics of the North Korean leadership reminded me of the Iraqi Information Minister 'Comical Ali' trying desperately to make the best of a bad situation as the war to overthrow Saddam Hussein was winding down to its inevitable conclusion.
However, these clowns seem to have lost the plot in their comedy of bluffs. As a result, they may be pushing the gag a little close to the edge of the abyss into which they (and their hapless population) will disappear if their supposed nemesis misreads the performance as that of madmen ... rather than just opportunistic adventurers who are prepared to go where others fear to tread?
