So who is NK calling "aggressors?"

Semantics? I think it is called apples to apples.

Semantics is nit picking over words.

i am stating and you are agreeing with the premise that you see no issue with doing to others what you would not tolerate other doing to you.

That isn't semantics...
People who threaten the wellbeing of others lose their rights to fair treatment, IMO. No different than one of my children losing their privacy through some violation of a rule or dishonest behavior. I will not hesitate to search their rooms or remove their privileges, until they have earned my trust.

I see no need to treat everyone the same, if they have not earned that respect.

Anyway, by "semantics" I meant reading the quote and stating NK did not threaten to wipe anyone out. They quite clearly stated they would "wipe out the aggressors." And the context points to the US being the "aggressor" in their view. Which is quite ludicrous, since NK is clearly the aggressor in this instance.
