CMV: We shouldn't worry that much about North Korea attacking us

After reading an article about how North Korea may have a working ICBM by next year, I'm not still convinced anyone has the balls to pull the trigger. I'm basing this solely off of the idea of Mutually Assured Destruction. Surely they must know anything they hit us with the US can hit them harder? Honestly that's my entire argument. Maybe weak, but seriously, this would be a lose lose situation for everyone involved. No one had the balls during the Cold War and I don't think Kim Jong Un has the balls now.

North Korea directly attacking the United States is extremely unlikely, however that's not the issue.

The issue is North Korea attacking *South Korea* and using their nuclear weapons(MAD) to ensure that the United States and her allies aren't able to effectively respond, without the threat of nuclear war.
