North Korea's threats to attack US military bases, including those on the American mainland, drew laughs from a number of Arab netizens.
Palestinian Ola Anan tweets [ar]:
تعليق بابا على تهديدات كوريا: أيوة بقى خليهم يتلهوا في بعضهم شوية ويحلّوا عنا
@olanan: My father's reactions to [North] Korea's threats: “Yes, let them get preoccupied with each other and leave us in peace.”
Syrian The 47th jokes:
@THE_47th: If this North Korean nuclear threat to US happened when Bush was president, he would have already ordered an attack on Cambodia. #GodBless
SATIRE: @Heshoz shares this picture showing the Emir of Qatar cheering on the on-going war of words between North Korea and the US.
While Lebanese Liliane A. notes:
@FunkyOzzi:  The way I see it, #NorthKorea is the baby that lacks affection and just needs a hug.
Hadi Alabdullah, from Homs, Syria, adds [ar]:
منقول: الائتلاف الوطني السوري يدرس قرار تزويد الولايات المتحدة الأمريكية بأسلحة غير فتاكة وتقديم الدعم اللوجستي لها في حربها ضد كوريا :)
@HadiAlabdullah: The Syrian National Coalition studies a decision to provide the US with non-lethal weapons and logistical aid in its war against North Korea
Egyptian Ibrahim Elgarhi takes the opportunity to poke fun at his country's own president saying:
كوريا الشمالية تصدق رسميا على ضرب امريكا بالنووي.. وبكدة يبقى جونج تاني اعبط رئيس في العالم
@Ibrahim_Elgarhi: North Korea approves Nuclear attack on US and thus makes Kim Jong-un the second most stupid president in the world
Hesham Mansour shares this picture showing the Emir of Qatar cheering on the on-going war of words between North Korea and the US. Qatar, the home of Al Jazeera television, has played a role in supporting many Arab Spring revolutions, even sending forces to Libya.
And on Brother Please, a Facebook page, contributors shared hilarious pictures and memes of North Korea's threat against the US.
Here's one of them:
