Here is what I think. The North Koreans practice a method of gaining power that is commonly referred to as brinkmanship. The idea behind brinkmanship is to push things to a dangerous edge- to the brink- to get the target of choice to back down and compromise and basically kneel before their power. (This method was also used during the Cold War and I believed that is when the phrase was first coined.) Nuclear threats and war threats with increasing severity are archetypal of brinkmanship as well, which we have seen North Korea do. If আপনি think about it, it's a bit like an elementary school play ground. North Korea is the bothersome wanker that's kicking up sand in other people's faces in order to get some sort of rise and to make themselves seem big and tough. This time they're targeting the USA and South Korea. Much like the playground setting, a full on war is very much a likelihood, but it all depends on how either side reacts. I doubt that the North Koreans will too too much aside from talking big, as the use of brinkmanship suggests. Sure, they're going to do a bit to back up their threats so we take them seriously, but they won't be much আরো than a মশা অথবা a tick. They would be pulling quite a risky move, and either they realise that অথবা they are complete twits. We, on the other hand, have a bit আরো control. It is in the hands of the government to decide how to react to it. I hope that the government chooses the right option to avoid a full scale war, whatever the option may be. I would like to think it probable that they shall. So, basically, to sum up this TL;DR post, it is a possibility, but I believe that a similar state to the Cold War is আরো likely.
