I'm all for the DPRK swinging like this, but they only swing like this because they are extremely isolated and this won't change that. If they were permitted to have more normal international relations, their tone would quickly shift

How does anything you said not also apply to Yemen?

I'm not talking about Yemen. I don't really know how it does or does not apply. From my very cursory knowledge, Yemen has been pushed out of the stalemate the DPRK has been stuck in because it has actually be the subject of several often genocidal military campaigns that have happened recently and are likely to continue. Being outside of that stalemate seems significant to me, but I can't tell you that I know anything.
