Until the reasons materialize, it is difficult to say what they might be.
So no reason then?

And can you think of a reason that would make it materialise?

Until a specific reason develops, I base my belief that NK would attack one its neighbors solely on the attitude of NK which flows from their feeling of being persecuted.
There's no logical reason to believe that N Korea would nuke someone because they feel "persecuted". How would nuking a neigbour help?

I take it "anybody" includes the US, UK, France, Pakistan, India, Russia etc etc.
nk can have a nuke but if they use them on us or sk then thare well be no more nk, for the US peace keepers 10for10 thats 100 bombs and thats not all of the b1s,2s,subs and ships that can give it to em just the peace keepers will blow them off the planet i think that bomb can cover all of nk
if all of them let go with a can of whoop ass thats a big bang and a big hole.

Not necessarily. Not in this new era. If NK hit the U.S. with one missile attack, we should of course wipe them off the map. But what good would that do? The damage they have inflicted is already done, and not likely to go further. Better we talk to them to learn why they have taken such a drastic measure as destroying Seattle (for instance).
Besides, wiping a little country like that off the map would seem grossly unfair to the world at large. It would appear to be the action of a bully.

You've hit the nail on the head. What good would it do? The same applies to NK. What good would it do for them to act in a way that would mean their won annihilation? I very much doubt the destruction of Kim Il-Jong own country, the place he has the pleasure of ruling over, is high on his list of things he wants to see happen. So what good would it do him firing a nuke at the US?

If Seattle was nuked by NK, the last thing you'd be worrying about is whether anyone is accusing you of being bully
