I think the motive is quite simple: Rattle some sabers to frighten the US so the US will send North Korea lots of money and free stuff so they will stop rattling the sabers. It’s like that old movie, “The Mouse that Roared,” about a small poor European country that declared war on the US so the US would send them lots of foreign aid money to bribe them into not having a war with the US.
