if Kim decides to launch a missile, its just a test, and he wasted a couple of hundred million dollar missile and he gets the aid donors mad and more sanctions and people realize they are starving to death and will rise because he cant provide food because he made the aid donors (who provide the food in the first place) mad.

Given the current tensions between the US and N. Korea is it really wise at this point in time to discontinue aid?
