2. There is little different about the rhetoric coming out of NK

Loudspeakers inform the people there to prepare for an imminent US invasion every day and have done so for years. We're the big bogeyman that keeps the Kim family in power.

Your suggestion is a good one.

5. I'm with you, This is way beyond "wag the dog".
