Which is what has happened in NK since the end of the war there.

60 years of doing nothing and allowing NK to grow stronger has led to millions of deaths in NK through starvation and repression. Trump, Bush, Obama did nothing and allowed NK to become a real threat to its neighbours. Now Trump is laying down a line and showing Kim and his aged generals what they're up against.

Will Kim ignore the threat, calling Trump's bluff and carry on as before? That's the worse outcome because it needs Kim to start the war with weapons, not words.
