North Korea is suspected in a number of similar attacks. Because really, what is anyone going to do? Attack them? They have nukes. Isolate them? They can't possible be more isolated. Sanction them?

As an aside, the regular threat of using nuclear weapons is an act of extreme violence, and I doubt North Korea's neighbors treat it so flippantly. The threat is unlikely, but extremely real.
