It was probably intentional. Picking a date was a political call. There were several choices for Kim. He apparently chose to stick it to Zero.

Can we be certain china did not give nk a suitcase?
Can we be certain nk does not have the missile technology to hit a U.S. city?
Can we be certain nk cannot mount a suitcase on a missile?
regrettably the answer is no to these questions

The political lineup:

immature ones: Kim Jong-eun(N. Korea,) Barak Obama(U.S.)

sort of OK : Abe(Japan,) Lee Myung-bak and Park Geun-hye(S. Korea, current and incoming president)

Cunning and devious: Xi Jinping(China,) Vladimir Putin(Russia)

No muslims in the region so I would think it will be an apathetic response.

Pleco(stomus)’s actually serve a higher purpose. No need to insult them.
