That line on the map NK to Guam.
Basically they've got a map and drawn a line down it with a Sharpie.
I just don't get it, all these generals look like such nice, friendly Grandad's, the kind you'd imagine being eccentric Asian supermarket owners or Mogwai peddlers in the back of an exotic pet shop, telling tall tales of dragons and stuff while puffing on a pipe. But no, the shifty buggers actually bow to this angry fat man child and believe him to be a god who wants to start nucular war.
What Muppets.

Some NK & Missile experts on Twitter are saying it's more then that, the line is broken, they believe it could be the first stage and second stage of the missile.

Lol, looks like they have indeed bottled it...
They look a bit silly now, after making very specific, graphic and apparently genuine threats, to back down and not carry them out makes them look even weaker than before.
It's also incidental that yesterday china started enforcing UN sanctions on them, I wonder what else china have been doing or saying to them in the background, away from western media

I can see people claiming this as a Trump win, but this is what North Korea always do.
All he did was kick a nest of hornets and endanger all of us.

That's the whole point, NK aren't the global threat. They like to bang their drums make a lot of noise to get themselves noticed. Hence why the rest of the worlds leaders just nod sagely and say 'it's just NK'
It doesn't need an imbecile like Trump to ratchet up the stakes with his rantings about 'fire and fury', it needs diplomacy, which as you say, was going on in the background

As for NK?? Anyone with half a brain cell could very well see they were talking out of their proverbial backsides.
The only muppet in this whole farce is Trump, him believing that NK were going to launch some missiles at Guam.
Like I said anyone with half a brain cell could see what this was. Says it all about Trump, who thought NK were being serious

I think Kim (and his father previously) expected this to go the same way as when dealing with previous administrations, kick up a fuss, threaten everyone .. get thrown a nice bone for something you wanted.
Maybe this will stop that cycle.

Don't believe every thing you read in the news, especially from the BBC.
NK probably never made that threat in the first place.

Ummm, ok...
I don't think it's that one dimensional to be honest,
Those sanctions bite and they bite hard - even China is enforcing them by preventing imports of things like Iron/Coal etc, because China likes making $trillions from the rest of the world and doesn't want the upset.
It won't let NK get too far off the leash, I suspect this back down of NK is probably being accompanied by other things that we won't see or hear about - maybe China will intervene in the missile development... A nuclear armed NK that can target the west doesn't help China in any way - it hurts them, so I think they'll act accordingly.

China has put it's foot down with imports.
HK will do as it's told now.

Do not forget the arms exports, via intermediaries like Malaysia (...watch the BBC2 catch-up on murder of Kim Jong-nam - if it was not fake news)
surprising USA have not been able to stamp down on this ? but maybe it is an easy way to monitor their technology.
edit :utube marketting
maybe usa can introduce software bugs like stuxnet
