Will North Korea Cause a Provocation for Kim Il-sung’s Birthday?

It seems that if a major provocation was coming there would be more a of a build up towards it than what we have seen lately. I guess we will see soon enough what the Kim regime decides to do:

In what could be a pivotal week on the Korean Peninsula, there is interest whether North Korea’s leader Kim Jong-un would opt for any provocation as the country marks the birthday of Kim Il Sung Thursday and Washington finalizes its Pyongyang policy review.  
   
The U.S. Congress is also set to hold a rare hearing Thursday on Seoul’s controversial law banning sending anti-Pyongyang leaflets across the border, a move seen by observers as the United States pressuring both Koreas on human rights, an issue prioritized by the Joe Biden administration.  
   
The Day of the Sun, which takes place on April 15 each year, is North Korea’s biggest national holiday, and this year marks the 109th birthday of the country’s founder Kim Il Sung, the grandfather of the current leader.  
   
Pyongyang has also often marked the occasion with flashy military parades, such as one in 2017 showcasing its new intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs) at a parade to mark the 105th birthday of Kim Il Sung.

I’m beginning to think not. He can’t stop the grandpa cult as it underpins everything, but he can scale it back so he can create his own cult and has the advantage of years over dear old dead daddy who couldn’t take over until grandpa monster died.

Fatty III probably will save the missiles for his own birthday.
