Who knows if he actually believes it now.

He’s also done a very good job of killing and purging his most senior military officers. The NK’s haven’t fought a war since the 1950’s. Who knows who the military commanders are now, what their competence level is, and and where they were educated.

Meanwhile the American military has been fighting for the last 20 years. Our military leaders are also ridiculously highly educated.
