They waited until just a few months ago, after seeing Iran score huge points against the US for standing up to them in regards to nuclear development. Iran's goverment has a sweet deal; everytime they want to raise oil prices, they say something controversial, and it works just like a magic wand. In addition, they look like they're standing up to the bully, and raise their profile to a major international player. Everyday that passes, they benefit more on all these fronts. North Korea sees this, and decides they want to play the same game. The good news for us is that the game only continues to work if there is never a nuclear strike. The bad news... well, markets reacted to the missile test by going down, except oil of course, which went up due to fears that the Asian oil supply might be interrupted. It's the Iran effect all over again, and once again, we seem powerless to stop it. Just turned on the TV (which goes automatically to PBS when you turn on the cable box), and saw Former State Department Official Wendy Sherman say the following on The NewsHour with Jim Lehrer: "I also think Kim Jong Il look at what we were doing with Iran. Here, Iran had really behaved badly, and for that bad behavior, they got a pretty good package that included a light water reactor; the very reactor the Bush Administration denied North Korea." Nothing like being backed up by the TV within thirty seconds of turning it on.
