Get over it. It is blindingly obvious North Korea did it. What they will do here is fake their evidence in a desperate bid to deny this heinous atrocity they have committed. Me thinks they are now worried they have "bitten off more than they can chew" against the West. They are probably thinking they are lucky they are not glass and are now back peddling big time. As we all know their threats are all a bluff generally& the country (not Joe Blows) North Korea are cowardly!
