This is 'the best-case scenario' in the NKorea crisis

"The best-case scenario in the weird world standoff is that young Kim will fully and fearfully seal his status as the unequivocal god-king of the North. Having proved himself a shining deity without compare – the usher of accolades to the Kim family dynasty – he could then become the man who finally ended the Korean War, something his forebears could not do. He could also sign an ironclad treaty with the United States to guarantee no forced 'regime change,' and guarantee that no Iraq-style military adventure ever takes place in the North."-- Robert Marquand, Christian Science Monitor.
